Need a flash app, paying actual $$$

[BonSkaffa]

Hello there Newgroundites,

Tell me if I'm wrong, but general forum would be to file a request, right?
Anyhow, this is my problem;

I snared a fantastic client this wednesday, a company that builds bigass offices and multi-million dollar villa's and such. They've taken a keen interest in me to design their new website, and I am capable of making everything they asked for, except for one very important element, and this is where flash coders will be interested:

They asked for a simple drawing program, similar to the item on sale here. I am in no way good enough with AS that I can make that. I have more than enough funds to buy it, but it doesn't exactly meet my client's standards.

What they're also looking for in the app, is that it is capable of sending the sketch that is made in the program to their e-mail account. What they were thinking of, basically, is that people visit their site, doodle an idea for a house they had in mind, and send it with the click of a button.

If you know you're capable of making such a thing, please contact me (PM). I am thinking you could make $20 off of it, but I'll have to clear that with my associate and my client first (I don't think it's a problem though).

Of course I realise I'm not asking for something really simple, so I'll allow (of course) you to put it on a stock site for re-selling later on, as long as I get to keep and re-use the .fla file.

Thanks in advance,
Bon

the deal sounds sucky to whoever wants to help you out.

You have to realise the app I linked to is basically the same thing, with the exception of the "send" button. That's only $8,-

As I said, whoever writes the app I requested here, is free to put it on a similar site as well, I'll just pay you 20 to compensate for writing it for me personally.

That's one fantastic client.

Twenty whole bucks!!!

Flash forum, also, don't bother offering so little. Abusing peoples good nature, if you're making $500+, pay a reasonable amount to the person helping you earn that. I'll rape you in the arse for $10.

RTFpost nub.

I'm offering you 20 dollars for a flash app, that's not what I'm getting for the whole website.
Again, whoever takes up the offer is free to sell it on to more people later.

No offense man, but I think you're kidding yourself if you think anyone wants to waste time making an app for $20 dollars. Even if someone bought the app for $8 and tinkered with the ActionScript, they'd still have to work on sending the data from the Flash app to a server to get it ready for email and that would take a little time. Even if somebody had this code READY TO GO, they'd be a sucker to sell it for $20.

I think you need to figure out what a typical standard rate would be for a Flash developer's time....a young kid selling pizza could make more money than taking your offer...

You should offer more than $20

[BonSkaffa]

Hmm, I figured this would be about 1 to 2 hours' worth of work time. I don't find 10 dollars an hour an unreasonable price, but anyone capable of doing this, please contact me and we'll work out a price.

$10 is the minimum wage, you're paying someone who has skills that you need the minimum wage? That's fucking ridiculous and patronising.

Hope you didn't tell the client that...you're really way off in terms of the details of this project....
