Scarily enough, I don't think I could make a better website than that, which is very sad.

:-\

But has any one got a rough idea of how much i could charge?

I would say on a scale of 1- 10, 1 being no slills at all, 10 being a guy who has been in university doing an advance cource...etc.

I would say i would be about 6-7

Any rough ideas?

I see a very bright future....for us all!!

I'm sorry...

I've been laughing soooo much at this and I tried to keep it away...

'Professional!'

Can you design a site that looks better than that? If so, you are 'super professional!'

...

sorry...

I sold one website for £40, but I'm guessing you could easily get over £100.

£100+ would do me fine, im only 16 so im not really trying to make a living. Just some side money.

You can have a look at my Freeola design, it's pretty good, for the Egad:

Hmmmm.

Don't know then.

You say you're good but then so do most of the 'professionals.'

Need to see.

Don't expect more than £250 though unless you're doing something really good.

Hmmm, that really annoys me when people do that. I've been teaching myself Web Design (Mainly just HTML and JavaScript) for a year now and recently managed to forget most of it thanks to not being able to afford PERL/MySQL/PHP books. Yet anyone who can afford an expensive program can drag a few pictures around and sell websites for £200+, and £60 for addition pages (people of which I know and annoy me).

No, i do know what im doing, i despise front page i use dreamweaver, i have currently took my website down and im making a new design.

I can use flash, and could probably make a whole site in it, etc.

So yeh, im not the best around, and i cant make really advanced sites, but i cant easily make a website, and the graphics for it.
