I certainly understand what you mean there. Let me just say that more than half of my time talking with clients has shifted to discussing value, and what I do, how I do it, and why I do it. The problem people usually have with price is that they h…

Opinions on the CSS-Tricks new layout
My response is kind of 2 part: 1) I really like all the new functionality, and the placement feels really good. The fonts are nice, and all the new jquery subtlies are very nice. 2) But that being said, the actual layout itself I'm not a fan…

Visitor Statistics
That's good to know about the plugin. Previously I had told people to use whatever their host used, but I went into my most recently finished project and had the client get setup with analytics. Good call there gentlemen. I suppose I probabl…

Jquery not loading in wordpress properly
Solved (KIND OF) - I ended up just using the WP-Cycle Plugin, which worked beautifully and also provided some more flexibility of the client.

Jquery not loading in wordpress properly
Hmm I wonder if you saw it while I was fooling around with it trying to get it to work The place I normally call it is on the page itself (it's a custom page for the index page), so on the custom page I have: <?php /* Template Name&a…

I think you're going to find it hard to get anyone to pin down what they charge to compare. People charge differently in a pretty huge range plus it depends on your niche. A good example of this is that personally I don't do any kind of …

Portfolio Relaunch
I love what you did with the "about me" and it makes me like how you did the contact form less. I wonder if you can easily have both the contact form and the about me section toggle like that. I think it would be way sweet.

Artist’s Website: First Attempt
Well done man - it's actually a very nice looking website, and it follows proper validation as well. So all in all, great job. A couple of things I saw could be helped out - I thought the rollover color was a little TOO light on the menu. No…

Feedback Please My first website
It kind of depends on what's going to go on these pages. Maybe maintain the pink as a border??

My new portfolio
I wouldn't say the color scheme is ugly, more just flat. It just doesn't seem to have much flavor. A couple of usability critiques: 1) The icons on the bottom I don't feel make sense. The icon associated with graphic design a what…

Feedback Please My first website
I would try and work on generally toning down everything - it's a little extreme for anyone spending a significant amount of time looking at the site. Bright colors doesn't necessarily mean you need to burn out anyone's retinas I&#…

Anyone have the new Mac Mini?
I'm imagining you could make the 27" the primary monitor, right? So I could have the imac to the side and my 27" right in front of me??

Media Temple Servers Any Good?
I've been with Godaddy, then to Hostgator, and now I'm at Media Temple. So far, I've liked the overall experience of MT more than the other two and I think it's worth the money. As the cheapest solution, I think Godaddy's …

style spilling into imgs
Hmm... odd - it's not doing it in Chrome or FF any longer. Possibly I was cachine the old css file? But it's still occurring in IE, so you can see it here: http://wibd.net/resources/ I have the code you mentioned below in the reset in a…

New Artist Website
Thanks for the feedback - yeah the navbar has been a bit of a headache. I wasn't getting the effect I wanted using transparent pngs, which led me to the jpegs. I do agree it may be a bit slow. The guy I built it for likes it that slow, but I…

I need to Bill some1 Online. . .
Robski, have you ever checked out Invoice Machine? I just looked at it the other day and I REALLY like how slick it is. But like Curdbee it lacks some of the really useful stuff Freshbooks has like expenses and the like.

Ugly Company Logo
I think the most gentle way to approach the logo is to simply as, "If you don't mind my asking, who designed your logo". The answer will drastically change the way you respond. If they say some intern made it 10 years ago, you will …

I need to Bill some1 Online. . .
For no money? I suggest Curdbee. But you won't be able to get around that paypal drama, my friend. Best to clear that up because there really isn't a good alternative I've ever heard of.

style spilling into imgs
Thanks for the info... I was under the impression that I was able to globally set stuff like that and never need to apply a class to each element. So I'll just need to plan ahead and know. It's good to know that for sure though Thanks …

/whatever/ instead of /whatever.php ?
One thing to note is that I've found certain hosting providers give certain limits to what you can do with htaccess. On my godaddy hosted site, nothing I did to the htaccess stuck, but on my MT hosted account it works just fine.

Huge Wordpress Eco Homes website
Very well done man. I really like how it shows your attention to detail. I especially like the simple yet elegant menus. I'm really trying to get deeper into utilizing WP 3.0's menus with a new project of mine, but yours are quite cool

Menu issues IE6/7 (dropping behind content)
Thanks Jamy - you are totally correct. I see what you are saying about the bad practice of using negative z-index dcp, but the weird thing is I spent like 2 hours trying EVERYTHING else and Jamy seems to be right so far that nothing else appears to…

windows xp + ie6 long live to 2020 - bad news for webdevelop
Well, at least they made the amendment that showed the 2020 date is incorrect, but it hasn't been confirmed. What I do now is during my discovery phase, I ask specifically if they need IE6 support. I'll make sure that the foundational te…

Considering switching to Media Temple

Considering switching to Media Temple
What kind of interface do they use? Is it cPanel or something of their own? I'm kind of looking to get away from the gimmicky nature of some of these guys where I'm not wading through 50 sales messages to get anything done and will offer…
