This. The first value signal a potential client gets about your services is how you talk about them, the second is how you price them. If you aim for the bottom of the market you need more jobs and more clients to stay afloat, and you'll attract the worst sort of client - the one who doesn't value your skills and experience. Add to that the fact that every client and every job will generate some non-billable hours, and you're putting yourself seriously out of pocket, stressed and overworked.
 
Learn to say no, to not be apologetic about charging for quality, and to pick and choose your clients carefully. Also learn to charge according to the client. Design Professionalism by Andy Rutledge should be required reading for anyone going into the design business.

Any customer calls / emails me for a quote or anything for a site over £500 + pick up the phone and make a meeting with them. Over coffee, beers or in the shop business they are in. Take a notebook, or stills printed with pen and pad. Business card and contract sign there and then.
 
From my experience anything you tell a customer there and then via email they are in google or go to the next company and get £100 off.
 
In person get them reved up about it so excited they cant wait to get it done, your passionate, you care about them, its just like trying to get a woman in bed (if your a virgin you ****ed here then)

oh it is yeah - i can send you an illustrator version if you prefer - i drew the ladybird in
illustrator anyway cos it takes so long to do vector work (for me) in PS. i'll send it tonight if you want. better for the printers to work with too

wow it's a fecking awful logo - i would suggest making a new one!
i'll try and knock something up in photoshop (illustrator would be better but you say you only have PS)
 
in fact it's not really a logo is it? the ladybird looks like clipart and there's not really anything much else - looks like it was done in paint, never mind powerpoint. oh and the colours are fecking awful too.
 
anyway (i'm almost embarrassed to offer it) here's a psd http://gekkoweb.com/stuff/logoladybird.psd
i just used verdana for now - you can replace it with font of your choice and the whole thing is resizeable without loss so you could send it to printers as is
 
btw did i mention that it's so awaful that you really should make them a new one
 

Have you got the return false in your code ?

No sorry I didn't explain properly you need to add the a to your existing rule
 

a.searchActionLinks { background-image: url("images/actionLinks.png"); background-repeat: no-repeat; display: inline-block; margin-left: 3px; padding-left: 18px; }
 
not just
 

a.searchActionLinks {/* I should have shown your existing code here*/}

Something like this should do:
 

<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('#commentform').submit(function() { var risp = false; $(".gdcurrent").each(function(){ if ($(this).width()==0) { risp = true; } }) var ratings = $('#gdsr_mur_value').val(); var ratingsArray = ratings.split('X'); $.each(ratingsArray, function(i, val){ if(val == 0){ $("#error").text("Please rate all stars!").show().fadeOut(2000); return false; } }); if ($('#comment').val() =='') { $("#error").text("Write a review!").show().fadeOut(2000); return false; } else if (risp) { $("#error").text("Rate all the fields!").show().fadeOut(2000); return false; } else { return true; } }); }); </script>

Register a non-hierarchical taxonomy (like tags) for the packages, then use wp_query() to run three loops.

Looks like a conflict
 
in you custom js add at the top
 

var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
 
and then rename all your calls to $j

Well i tracked down the original article from which i built up the site. So this may help you.
 
http://www.sohtanaka.com/web-design/greyscale-hover-effect-w-css-jquery/
 

The only problem i can see for you there is that you state you have a lot of items which would mean a lot of images and may become slow to load with a lot of traffic.
 
Each item is a list item (li) and the JS just shifts the image and then adds a transition.
The JS that hooks to the Jquery is as follows...
 

$(document).ready(function() { $("ul.gallery li").hover(function() { //On hover... var thumbOver = $(this).find("img").attr("src"); //Get image url and assign it to 'thumbOver' //Set a background image(thumbOver) on the <a> tag - Set position to bottom $(this).find("a.thumb").css({'background' : 'url(' + thumbOver + ') no-repeat center bottom'}); //Animate the image to 0 opacity (fade it out) $(this).find("span").stop().fadeTo('normal', 0 , function() { $(this).hide() //Hide the image after fade }); } , function() { //on hover out... //Fade the image to full opacity $(this).find("span").stop().fadeTo('normal', 1).show(); }); });
 
 
... i can't actually remember where i got it from otherwise i'd link through to it.
To change the order (b+w --> colour / colour --> b+w) i'd just re-do the sprite image in reverse. When researching this i came across all sorts of browser dependent filters but this still seemed like the easiest and universal solution.

Maybe something like that:

<html> <head> <style type="text/css"> /* Product List */ ul#productList { clear: both; list-style: none; overflow: hidden; margin: 0; padding: 0; } ul#productList li { border: 1px #000 solid; float: left; width: 172px; margin: 0 11px 11px 0; padding: 5px; display: inline; -moz-box-shadow: 6px 6px 3px #; -webkit-box-shadow: 6px 6px 3px #; box-shadow: 6px 6px 3px #; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; } ul#productList ul { clear: both; list-style: none; overflow: hidden; margin: 0; padding: 0; } ul#productList ul li { border: none; float: left; margin: 0; padding: 0; display: inline; width: auto; } /* ul#productList ul li.moreInfo { float: left; } ul#productList ul li.buy { float: right; }*/ ul#productList a.image { border: 1px #000 solid; display: block; height: 130px; text-align: center; overflow: hidden; } ul#productList a.image:hover { border: 1px #eee solid; display: block; height: 130px; text-align: center; overflow: hidden; /* CHANGE HERE FOR OPACITY FOR GREYSCALE? */ background-color:#000; opacity:0.3; } ul#productList li h4 { padding: 0 0 5px 0; color: #000; overflow: hidden; font-size: 1em; font-weight: bold; height: 2.4em; text-align:center; margin: 3px 0; } ul#productList li em { display: block; padding-bottom: 5px; color: #ff9900; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; font-style: normal; } .img {background: #333;} </style> </head> <body> <ul id="productList"> <li><div class="img"><a class="image" href="#"> <img src="http://www.zerogravitysafety.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/General.jpg" width="172" height="130" border="0" alt="TM-CPT40" /></a></div> <h4>Product Name</h4><em><span style="font-weight: normal">£43.33 Ex Vat</span><br />£51.99 Inc Vat</em> </li> </ul> </body> </html>

I've managed to have a look at your code now instead of the #dt_WLK rule can you try this
 

#route_options_box_content { font-size: xx-small; overflow: auto; width: 100%; } .layers { background:#fff; padding: 7px ; overflow:hidden; height:100% opacity: 0.8; filter:alpha(opacity=80); }
 
I think this should work how you want

Did this work for you ^

Try removing the <br /> tags from between the images in your HTML. Maybe Nivo is picking them up and trying to show them as slides.
 
Edit: D'oh! Too slow!

your actual source has
 

<div id="slider"> <img src="http://www.zerogravitysafety.co.uk/wp-content/themes/parallelus-unite/images/nivo/sample.jpg" alt="" title="This is an example of a caption" /><br /> <img src="http://www.zerogravitysafety.co.uk/wp-content/themes/parallelus-unite/images/nivo/sample2.jpg" alt="" title="This is an example of a caption" /><br /> <img src="http://www.zerogravitysafety.co.uk/wp-content/themes/parallelus-unite/images/nivo/sample.jpg" alt="" title="This is an example of a caption" /><br /> <img src="http://www.zerogravitysafety.co.uk/wp-content/themes/parallelus-unite/images/nivo/sample2.jpg" alt="" title="This is an example of a caption" /> </div>
 
is it doing something silly with <br/> ?

Add width to HeaderRight
 

#HeaderRight { clear: right; float: right; margin: 0 26px 25px; width: 298px; }

No probs with all the questions...just remember to click the '+' button at the bottom of the posts
 
Yes, just contact the old host.
 
Regarding the email accounts. The easiest way is to use the same passwords that were used on the old server. If you can't, then the users will be asked for the new password when they try and check for their email so no real hassle. All other settings should remain the same.
 
As for emails already in outlook, they'll be fine. It's just the ones that haven't got there yet.

It means you need to tell your old host to change the IPS TAG to EXTEND (as said in a previous post).
 
Yes, it would just be a case of setting up the accounts again but any emails that aren't stored locally in Outlook(etc) will be lost.
 
Hope this helps.

You don't need plugins for this - just create a category called blog, and then create a menu entry for it, and you'll get this functionality from a vanilla installation.

agree no need for plugin , and you are going roundabout on this but here goes.
 
create a blog.php template file , then add this to the get_header tag :

<?php /* Template Name: blog */ ?> <?php get_header(); ?>
 
then just put your code [which is a get-posts tag with the category id you want ] and chose this template on your wp page Blog.
 
for a more direct way you can simply install this plugin Quick Page/Post Redirect Plugin and then in Blog page , redirect it to category blog

save the script as a seperate file and link to it or wrap it in cdata tags
 

<script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ ...code... //]]> </script>

Just done a quick google search...

About half way down they start getting into the integration, havent read it all but it looks like there on the right track with that.
