  1. What can possibly go wrong with a server that cannot get fixed in 6+hs

    in Open Forum

    Posted

    I just wanted to mention that working with Godaddy as a host isn't my favorite. If you choose them, make sure you choose Linux instead of Windows if you want to work with WordPress or other similar programs. Also, I don't like the fact that when you create a database, you have to wait (sometimes hours) for them to actually approve it (or whatever it is they do). Frustrating when I'm working on a client's site and on a schedule....

     

    Just my 2 cents. :cool:

  12. How can I make Photoshop forget what I just did?

    I'm using CS3 and it has always happened as far as I can remember.

     

    Thanks for your help, everyone. Clicking on Styles and then none fixes it for me. So, the new objects will still have the styles applied, but at least now I know how to get rid of it instead of just having to turn off the visibility. Cool! :cool:

  19. Small edits and updates - do you charge?

    in Business of Web Design

    Posted

    I have several clients who lately need small edits and updates for their sites. I've developed their sites in WordPress or CMS Made Simple and I've trained them on how to manage the site, but they still want me to do it. It is basically because they don't feel confident that they can do it themselves without messing up the site. It's more than changing a word here or there, but they're still simple edits. I can usually do them in 5 minutes or less. On the rare occasion, it might take me 15-30 minutes.

     

    My question is this....do you guys charge for the edits that only take 5 minutes or so? When my client emails me asking for advice, they're not asking me to do it for them, but I offer because I know it will only take a few mins. But now the situation I'm in is that I'm spending 1/2 my day on these things when I should be working on other stuff. I'm getting a little frustrated.

     

    I can't see myself replying to one of these emails, "Sure, I can help you. I'll send an invoice for 5 minutes worth of time." lol

     

    So, how do you guys handle this?

     

    (Typing this out, I think I know the answer, but I'm still curious to hear your thoughts)

  22. CSS Mix Up

    in Beginners Web Design

    Posted

    This is in your default.css file:

     

    body {

    background: #000000;

    text-align: justify;

    font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

    font-size: small;

    text-align: justify;

    color: #555E4F;

    }

     

    You would just add the url to the background image to the background: #000000 line.

     

    I'm not seeing the CSS you posted for the body in the default.css file....
