i would honestly be your admin for your website if you really needed one, thatway woodman wouldn't be getting angry at you not listing your prices.
the thing is these days there are a few requirments of having a company and advertising online.
(i havn't done them becasue my prices are subjective)
A) you must list prices
B) you must list products, and as much info about each as possible
C) the website must have an online order function so that telephone is not used
D) the website must be functional
E) the website must look good
check list !!!! how many points did you get?
anyway i do honestly hope that the bussiness works out for you, but i am trying to give you constructive crit here and am happy to offer any more suggestions free of charge if you wish.

Heh, a 'tad annoyed' would be a better description .
Seriously though, I'm just glad some folks here are going it alone instead of working for another big company. I've never really appreciated the efforts some of them put into their ventures. Personally I'm still going through it, and it's bloody hard work .
Anyways, just echoing what Alltaken is saying, good luck, hope your business does well, & all that.
Ohh chang lai yum chaa, ho mm ho? Ohh-geh gong tung wahh tai tai chaa lol .
HA HA HA i'm cheap and i'm going it alone. so far its been my holiday for the last 1/2 week, guess how many days i've sat around and done nothing? ummm none, why? becasue i have been doing animations to keep my skills up (like 8 hours a day at least of animating)
LOL i say go it alone and get off the phone unless your gonna get a bone and a moan from mrs malone. HA HA HA i'm a RAP artist.

Lol thanks... I think, haha . But I think I've got that covered. Just working on my CD covers right now.
And 8 hours a day you say? My, that's a lot of time on your hands. Doing anything else with those hands of yours ? What sort of animation work do you do, 3D or flash based?
yeah 3d animation. i havn't yet learnt flash so i can't really do it LOL.
so i guess you are a designer or some kind?
just curious really.
ok for animation i use a FREE program called blender (yeah it has a bad reputation becasue of ignorance rather than fact, but hye the price tag works for me and i can do wicked stuff so hey)
i use Photoshop and gimp as well, but yeah basicly i prefer my 3d animation rather than PS and gimp work (well unless they are for texturing).

Heh thanks . Don't think I'll be much of a competition though, I'll only be operating within my city for now.
Yea, besides web design, I can also do banner ads, buttons & whatever else easily enough. Webmastering & graphical alteration/maintainence is another set of jobs I'm sure I can handle.
And depending on the client, I can also do letterheads, logos, CD covers, pamphlets, brochures... pretty much anything thats graphical in nature. I did some free work for my sis, which gave me extremely valuable experience in the above areas.
Recently started work on vector graphics too, I don't like it at all but it's necessary . Then I have to redesign my site again, look at porn, and...
