IN fact i will post in any damn thread I like. And i always respected you as a friend/colleague. Guess i was wrong.


See... ?

That was actually a piece of honest advice.
You seem to forget that with experience comes knowledge.

I know how this GFY beast runs, I've been here nearly since the beginning.

10 years ago my wife liked to hang on this board.. and she's a knowitallcunt like you, always has an opinion, and never knew when to shut up

It caused nothing but problems for her, and for me.. to the point some people here still have it in their fucked up heads that I was actually her etc, and carry grudges based on that! :1orglaugh

You wanna go and drown your biz in hate, go ahead.

I dunno why you, or anyone would respect me as a friend or colleague, I dont know you from a hole in the ground, just because we both arrange pixels around most of the day doesn't mean shit.

that said, my advice was said in sincerity, after all, I've been doing this since you were 10 and have learned a few things along the way. :2 cents:

Why don't you go steal more work from others and claim it for your own?

machinegunkelly 06-14-2012 07:24 AM

I'd bet it's old,
I've popped into play in this playground what 2ce in 5 years?
Then quickly got snapped up back on contract.


You know nothing of my work, nor what I even DO :1orglaugh

I will say though, of all my work done over the years, never was I so daring to steal icons from a childrens game to place in a porn site, and never would I risk my client like that, ever.

Have fun GW , can't wait to watch GFY chew, and spit you out :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I didn't have much of an opinion about you one way or the other, until this comment.

Nothing on your site suggests that your work can hold a candle to MGK's work.

You aren't the first designer to show that they can't handle being on the boards, and you won't be the last.

Not so much to have them pay me to talk (never happened).. but to remind them what while they may have all the time in the world, I DON'T...And they are COSTING me 1 dollar a minite.


You're a lying cunt. Fris has referred me to you for a project I wanted done. It was not a one off/simplistic project either. I needed the site broken down into segments. After showing you a mockup of what I had done you told me to email you. I told you that it wasn't as simple as emailing and that it was something I had to show you because of things were put together. I wanted to make sure you had a clear understanding of what it was i was looking for. You then proceeded to brush me off and told me that it was a $1/minute if I wanted to explain it to you. You said that I could email you and that was that. After that 5 minute chat we had on ICQ i wrote you off as an arrogant and pretentious cunt...I can see by all your posts i was spot on.

I am so glad I never went with you. I would never use your services and i will discourage anyone from selecting you as their designer.

I thought this was a joke.

Apparently it isn't .. MGK gave some excellent advice. You should listen.

BTW, I have been a know it all prick all of my life and I can't envision how you don't see a problem with the way you have conducted yourself here. Really if you listen to Kelly's advice you are going to be a lot better off lol ... Not that I care either way.

I don't recall it being an hour long. If you read the part where you said "and we can talk for an hour.. and i lose 60 bucks. Or you can email me.. and all we lose is your time" i took it as $1 per minute. Here I am talking about project that I was interested in having you do, which would have been worth what I would guess to be around $5,000 - $10,000, and all you can worry about is your $1 per minute.

Here you are, making what you claim to be 6 figures and yet you're worried about going over details of a project and your $1/minute fee? get a grip. You sit there and wrote in a previous email how you wanted you clients to know what they want. What they're going for, and to be specific, and yet when that information is trying to be delivered to you all you're worried about if $1/minute?

Sure, we could have passed emails back and forth for days and days and days trying to explain the intricacies of what it was I am working on but you know what, I have better things to do with my time than to sit there and wait for responses back and forth. The information you would have needed would have been covered in an hour or two of chat rather than a week of sending emails back and forth.

You really have no grasp for business.

Hey Loryn I do my own work , but have not started doing things for others, I like looking at peoples work to see whats new and hip in other peoples aspects of design , also wanted to see someone that designs for others that some of these people that aren't happy with GW can use! thanks.

Well we will never know. At the time I was 50/50 unsure if you were a genuine customer or not. From my experience, the guys that have worked with designers before know we dont like to sit around chatting as it stops us working.

It's usually the noobs with big dreams that think you do this for a hobby and have all day to talk to them.

In all likelyhood I wouldn't have taken your gig anyway. We like to do quick punchy gigs that take no more than a few days max. $10K would mean we would be devoted to you for a conciderable amount of time. Negleting our other clients.

IM sorry I hurt your feelings. I hope you found a great designer.

Nice way of saying you can't do any complex jobs but can design WP blogs for people :pimp

My guy from India does a good job making those too, less than $XX per hour too :)

My Indian employee's got a portfolio that puts her's to shame. He charges $25 per DESIGNED PAGE. If I place the order tonight, it's completed by the time I wake up in the morning. Can't beat that.

Mind giving me his contact info / website address? We only do software and are looking for a designer for some of our upcoming projects. Well, either that or eventually get someone in house, but wouldn't hurt to have his info on file.

Yes, actually I do mind. :1orglaugh

I have passed on his info once just last week and someone from here insulted him somehow...so I don't really want to take the chance of him not wanting to do work for me because I referred him a bunch of assholes. Not saying you are of course, just that most here are and I don't want to risk it.

Besides the drama threads and her offensive attitude sometimes, she's a good girl really or at least that's my experience on working with her on a project some months ago.

Understood, no problem. Just for the sake of argument, i wouldn't be offending him, of course, hah. Concrete example, i'm losing a couple good bucks on a designer that failed to deliver a project and i take it as it is, shit happens, business is business.

I agree with you notjoe... spending some time with customers is part of business... I have found over the years, that spending a little extra bit of time with my customer has always paid off for me... You never know how that customer, who apparently is thought of as small or not knowing what they are doing, will turn out for your business... it's usually a long term loyal person who not only gives you their business but spreads the word around more on how great it is to work with you...

I like your grasp in business Joe... If you need a good designer let me know babe... Don't mind spending time with anyone... I like to get to know everyone I work with, and it doesn't take much time do it AT ALL... :thumbsup
