Let me give you some unsolicited advice:

1. Never - NEVER, I don't care who it's for, if there's money involved, never do ANYTHING without a contract. You're better off if you "insult" them upfront by whipping out a contract and waiting for them to sign it before you do ANYTHING. That way, in 5 months when they're trying to screw you...

2. Never - NEVER assume your people understand #1.

3. For those of you in the market for a "web site", take note:
� whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com wasn't built in 3 weeks
� whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com wasn't built in Dreamweaver, FrontPage OR GoLive. If it was, whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com isn'tarealwebsite.com
� whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com wasn't built for $5k. If it was, whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com isn'tarealwebsite.com
� whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com, in spite of what you think you know, you couldn't build in 4 hours using Dreamweaver, FrontPage OR GoLive. If you could, whateveryouthinkisarealwebsite.com wouldn't be arealwebsite.com

whew... this thing is handy... LOL
