Zhadus Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 As previously stated this would be the incorrect forum. From what I see, the Misc. forum would probably be the best? My personal suggestion would be to look at quotes other people give and factor in your skill level and experience. If you need to ask how much to charge, you probably shouldn't charge too much.

zq29 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 One option would be to charge maintenance by the hour - What is involved in maintaining this particular clients website?

Zhadus Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 How often does it need to be updated and roughly how long does it/would it take you to do it each time?

Zhadus Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Normally I'd say between $10-$20 an hour is pretty reasonable. Ask for $30 or $40 a week and look for a tutorial on writing a script that generates thumbnails from images. Then all you'd need to do is crop each image.
