Today I sold out my design morals for a hunk of cash.

So ... a customer came to me today wanting some graphics done ... horrible horrible art.

The kicker, he wanted it exact. So I did my normal ... "if we redesign it from scratch it will be x, if I make that one exactly the same again it will be 3 times x .." he chose the 3 times x price and away I went.

Today I designed something with comic sans AND papyrus, 2 colors of outlines on the same text yes ... double outline ... and I used that horrible horrible HORRIBLE illustrator art brush that comes preset with the 4 or 5 others that is supposed to be some sort of chalk paint thing ...

Tyrant, sad. :-(

This one should cheer you up. It cannot possible be as bad as this..... they absolutely insisted. Aint' it purty!! I almost refused on principle but money is money and I knew it would come back down quickly. We wagered on how quick they would go under. It was less than 4 months.

I did it once a long time ago. I tasted a little bit of puke in my mouth that came up. The taste lingered far too long.

Just curious why you charged him 3x what the price would've been had you designed it?
