Still, I don't know what the price is for anything, so I've no idea what to charge. I have been doing $20 / hour of work and quoting expected hours ahead of time. Usually I can get the first draft in by that, but six or seven later  In the last 17 months I've become very good at this sort of thing (skinning), but I can't seem to find any work doing it. It's monumentally depressing. Quote:

@Michael
no worries, you probably did yourself a favor billing by the hour. Until you really know how much time goes into a design, you will never know what to charge as a flat rate. However, you should not feel bad that you spent a lot of time on your first draft. ANY trained graphic designer will tell you that about 70% of your development time should be spent on conceptualization and comps for the client. (how would you come up with something original yet visually appropriate and appealing if you didn't work through a mountain of thumbnails?  ). As long as you put in an honest effort, you should never feel bad for billing for more. However, you should clear it with your client before you continue with the designs.Through the last 2.5 years, I have had exactly one client. Their vision is not at all akin to what I believe is best for them, but they are a large client, and I do my best to listen to, and satisfy, their needs. I still bill by the hour for webmastering their site, btw.
