We bill out at a flat rate of $75.00 per hour. Our procedure is as follows:

  • Click on the order form above. Fill out the form. Include your description of the artwork you desire. Attach files if needed.

  • Within 3 working days we will email you a FREE estimate. If you approve the estimate, go to our Terms of Service page, read the contract, then click the acknowledgement button on the Terms of Service contract. You will be directed to the Payment page where you can enter your credit card number and info. Next, enter 50% of the amount of the estimate. Finally, click the submit button and we will send you a confirmation email.

  • Email us with any changes you require. Within 3-5 working days we will email you a second proof with "samples" watermarked over your artwork. When you approve the job, go to the payment page and enter the remaining 50% of your order. We will send you a confirmation email.

Deadlines

Our normal turnaround time is 10-15 working days depending on the size and complexity of the order.

We will endeavor to meet all deadlines as long as we are provided enough lead time for job completion.
