Flash Photo Gallery Design
May 4th, 2010
How long should it take to build a nice website? Any good Web Designers recommeded?
Our web designer was hired in October 2006, here is our site:
www.hottubshawaii.com
When finished our site should have about 50 pages, some flash, a 3D “color chooser” where you can mix and match colors on a hot tub, a slide show in the photo gallery, and a 3 question questionairre that should produce a recommeded product.
I have given the designer all the photos and info needed to build the site. I actually designed the home page in Photoshop to tell him what I want it to look like.
It has been over 7 months now and as you can see, it’s not done.
We are thinking of firing this guy. Do you have any recommendations for a new designer? If we fire him, will all of the work so far be lost (i.e does he own it?)
P.S. There is also an online store, which he put up with a oscommerce template and I have added all the products.
Good questions. Regarding your title question, it really depends. A global website (think something on the level of BMW) would normally take a small team of highly talented, highly experienced designers and developers 3-6 months to do. It can vary significantly though – the abilities of the person(s) you hire will be directly related to how much you can afford to pay. If your budget for the project with the complexity you’ve described (especially the color chooser) is 5000-10000ish, you will only get a mediocre designer at best, and the product will either be finished quickly but poorly, or it will be finished very slowly but a bit better. Judging by the site so far, I would say that about 2-3 months for that site should be adequate for a moderately capable designer.
What happens to the work if you let him go depends entirely on the contract that you signed when the work began. If there is no specific clause that defines his relationship to you, then it’s generally accepted that such arrangements, even if informal, are work for hire, which means you hired the work already done. If you have paid for the work done to date, you own it.
Generally I recommend that people go to a place like http://www.elance.com/ or http://www.rentacoder.com/ to find designers for relatively cheap. If you can’t afford to hire a real design firm, these are good places to go. If you do have the budget, there are many capable firms that target every budget range… feel free to e-mail me if you would like me to help match you up with some firms that are a good fit for your project.
Most importantly, don’t take up any offers on here, Y! Answers, for people offering to do work. Most are amateurs (even if they don’t think so… for example, the other answerers to this question), and either way, this is not a freelancing forum, so there are no protections in place to help ensure you are dealing with reliable people.

Design and Evaluation of a Mobile Photo Gallery in Tip $96.59 As a part of the Tourist Information Provider (TIP) system, this project focuses on creating a photo gallery service in the TIP system, which allows users to share, browse and categorize their photos. The core of this project is to provide users a locationbased photo browsing. The system provides photos which are taken in the current users location. We considered privacy control on photos that users uploaded. A photo owner is able to sign an access level to each of their photos and permit different users to access them. We also considered reusing resources. The system allows a user to use an URL of a photo in the system in stead of uploading the photo from the local computer. The system also provides a URL of each photo in order to use the photo on other web places, e.g., Blogs. We use tags and photo metadata Exif to categorize photos. Author: Wang, Yi Wang/ Hinze, Annika Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 108 Publication Date: 2008/12/01 Language: English Dimensions: 9.00 x 6.00 x 0.22 inches |
