Title: Dank's Digital Design services - Add that dank style to your project
Post by: dank on July 04, 2011, 10:29:19 PM
Hi, my name is Dank, I've been creating digital graphics for 8 years, since I started using a computer, and have 4-5 years of Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator experience.

I will price accordingly to your project, but generally a logo will cost 3-6 BTC depending on complexity, website design starts at 10 BTC, advertisements start at 2 BTC (animated gif's available as well).  I'm interested in working on more types of media such as product packaging and marketing design.  All projects include Photoshop and/or Illustrator files, fonts used, or whatever else you may need.

I have completed 3 projects for clients on this forum, all happy with the result.  PM me or post here with details of your requirements and we can get started.

Examples of work (please ignore the quality degradation):

I can make an animated GIF image starting at 2 BTC, depending on complexity and length of the animation.  PM me if you wish.

5 BTC for web design? You mean hourly right?

I think he means the visual design and only the visual design starting for 5 BTC. You still need to code it in HTML/CSS, which is where the hours would come in.

In my experience, the visual design actually takes longer than the HTML/CSS (I can slice a PSD and make clean, compliant code for an entire site in like 8 hours). It's sort of a whole process, and definitely more valuable than the equivalent of $65 worth of Bitcoins. I'd be very surprised if it was 5 BTC total and not per hour.

If you think about it, you need an index page, level 1 page, and possibly other types of pages depending on what CMS your site uses, if any. Colors need to match, a navigation scheme needs to be chosen, link hover properties, etc. The whole user experience and functionality needs to be factored in when developing the design. It's a lot of work :-\

The other question is, what kind of support does OP provide? Can I call up and discuss my needs on the phone prior to development of the template? Is there a feedback/revision process included in that price? And so on.

5 BTC is a just a starting price (not hourly).  The more complex, the higher the price, but I do keep my prices pretty low compared to standard rates.  Coding costs more too.

I provide no phone support but you can contact me via PM or email, or Windows Live if you really need to.  If you have a certain layout in mind and can provide a good description I would make the first version and any changes afterwards until it meets your expectations.  So yes, I will provide previews and make revisions until you're satisfied.

I think it's the constant revision that costs the time? I know after a while of having clients who kept changing their minds, we basically wrote it into the quotation, after selecting a concept, 1 preview, 1 revision. Any redesign cost money, any further revision cost money. Otherwise for those low margin high volume deals, it doesn't make any sense.

The coding part, I was more thinking of implementing all the nonsense that people tend to want nowadays and a lot of visual designers don't think about the practical implementation of some of the fanciful ideas they get. :D

nice, I like this work! Do you think you can turn my whole site into a big call of duty HUD type thing - gamerchicks.org ? I want to make the site a game in itself kind of.

I only do the graphical design so if you have whatever coding that would be required.

Right, I'll just need the design/css work done. I'll take care of the code.

Just paid 1/2 up front from Dank for Design/CSS for a website.  Will let you guy know how it all goes, the guy seems to be polite and all seems good so far :).

I'm restarting my graphic design services.  No web coding anymore, though.

I'm more interested in product/marketing design but I'll still design websites too.

Anti-bump.

An anti-bump has the same effect as a regular bump, but I've been using it to add a negative connotation to my posts. I personally dislike your work but I feel that it deserves recognition from others in the community because you clearly put time and effort into what you're doing. I still don't like it, though.

Well thank you.  Do you dislike the graphical work of mine or the bank related part?  Or are my musical skills unsatisfactory for you at this time?

Thank you.  I haven't used Illustrator in the past few months so I had to refamiliarize myself with it.

Dank, you should really try to embed those pics on your main page, as the links are merged together and it's just a giant wall of link text that's unclickable.

Also if anyone needs video editing, PM me :D
