[Photoimpact]

I use Ulead Photoimpact.  Mainly because it is easier to use, costs like 8x less than photoshop and has all the features needed for everyday image editing.

What FTP program are you using to transfer your files?  Why do you choose that one?  Why do you think it is better?

I agree with just about everything you claim here Zelo, and thanks for sharing your perspactives; but what do you tell somebody when they ask you, "Hey, what do you charge to make me a web site?".  Surely you cannot go over all that stuff with them there on the spot.

I find PHP to be the best.  You can use it on Linux or Windows and it integrates very well with SQL, Perl, html, and others.  PHP rocks! 

[charging for web design work]

I am hoping to have a detailed, fun, and informative discussion about charging for web design work.  How much do you charge a client?  Do you charge some clients more than others?  If so, why?  Do you charge by the job or by time (by the hour, etc...)?  How important is a contract?

I do not mean to overwhelm with questions, just want to consider many different factors.

[supplement]

It appears that this forum has the ability to do all that the static site http://www.hostned.com/members/ does.  For examplr the FAQ's can be moved into here as sticky posts and the newsletters can be moved into their own category etc...  So what do you think.  Should this forum supplement or take the place of the members area?

PHP version of sendmail should work for sure, on all HostNed servers Linux or Windows or whatever.  If you cannot get it to work, contact support via the ticket system with all the relavent details (URLs, etc) and since this above script is officially supported by HostNed they will assist you in troubleshooting.  Then once you get it sorted out, post here what was the matter so as to share knowledge with others.

If you insist on using CGI version of sendmail for some reason, contact support and ask them the location of sendmail for your server (different servers have different locations for sendmail).

Feel free to ask or answer any questions here in these forums.  Share ideas with others.  Get help with anything from scripting to preventing SPAM.

If posting, just choose the category you feel is most appropriate.  If looking for answers, use the search function or browse by category.
