  1. How many pages can you code, and how much do they cost?  

    It's $175 for the first page and $75 for each additional page after that. There is no limit to the number of pages in the same layout. You will receive the first layout within 3 days.

  2. Is your code cross-browser compatible?  

    Yes it is, we will make every design compatible with:

    • Internet explorer 7+ (Windows)
    • Firefox: 2+ (Mac/Windows)
    • Safari: 3+ (Mac/Windows)

    If you need the design to comply with a specific browser other than these, please let us know.

    Absolutely. We take your privacy very seriously. See our Privacy Policy for more information.

  5. Who will have rights over the code you send me?  

    You will have all the rights to all the various files we deliver to you (HTML, CSS, javascript, images).

  6. How do I send you files?  

    You can send us your file(s) through our Order form. If you have multiple files, please zip them up before sending them.

  7. What format should the design be in?  

    While we can accept most formats, we prefer Fireworks .PNG, Photoshop .PSD, Illustrator .AI, or Lineform .lineform files. So we can match your design, also include:

    • Custom fonts, if necessary
    • Rollover states, if necessary
    • Details on specific element behaviors

    If the format supports it, please leave the layers intact.

  8. When do I pay?  

    Half up front, the rest after the work has been completed.

  9. What are the payment options?  

    We currently accept all payments through PayPal. Once we have received the layout, we will contact you via email with our payment details.

  10. What if I am not satisfied?  

    We offer you three revisions after completion of the code. We'll send you the XHTML+CSS files. You'll review them and send us changes.

    NOTE: the window for the revision is one week from code delivery.
