Wow, $25 an hour sounds very reasonable to me. Is that really the going rate for graphic design or is that the "just getting started in design" rate? Anyway, hope it works out for you. Sometimes the difficult clients can provide the most rewarding work, but the psycho ones are seldom worth the effort.
$25 an hour for 3 hours work is NOT reasonable unless you live in a motor home in the desert. $25 is only good if it's a wage and you have an employer paying benefits and taxes for you. But as a freelancer, $25 is not that much by the time you pay taxes and other expenses; unless you are billing out 50 or 60 hours a week. 3 hours at $25 is terrible! A hundred hours (billable) at $25 is better... but still kind of low (depending on experience and where you live).
If the OP is going to bill hourly, then he at least needs to set a minimum hourly charge to make worth his while.

Hey, I'm trying to generate a sound that will match something from a song my band is covering. I have the sound set up just right except I need the it to oscillate faster. I want it to be at oscillating at about 178 bpm but I can't figure how to get it to work.
If I can't do it by tempo else can I do it?

Appleinsider called this correctly then, I wonder if this will be the top selling iPod model this Christmas.
But yesterday, comScore finally put some numbers behind that latter argument, building off its earlier report regarding February data on smartphone usage to reveal that the overall iOS platform of iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch reaches 37.9 million users in the U.S., 59% greater than the reach of Android.
Since we're talking about an underlying OS here, I assume they remembered to include the Linux user base as well... including dumb terminals, kiosks, and servers, right? ;)
Seriously, Facebook runs off of a modified version of the Android OS. Lets not forget to include the 100 million users of Facebook.
Slightly off topic, does anyone think this site can get anymore pro-apple biased?

This is the place I thought was full of answers:cool: Should I check PC World:eek:
It needs offline maps. Without that, it's pointless on an iPod Touch, or any WiFi-only device. If I could save just one city at a time: say I'm going to London, and I will need a map of London all day, then I could save a given radius of a London map and it would be handy.
What I do now is take screenshots of maps while I still have WiFi, but that's totally annoying to do.
Offline maps would take away income from the Cellular Providers. Also, putting a GPS in the Touch would take away from iPhone sales.
Both won't happen... :eek:

Good.
Oh really..... 550 family plan works fine lol.
No worries, although - you actually have to conjure up the image in your mind.
I walked in on mine.I heard mine when I was 10. The night terrors still haunt me. The final quote: my mom saying "well, I think that's all for tonight." Really. Then the two of them went to separate bathrooms and, shortly thereafter, flushed toilets. Yeah, it was 29 years ago, and I remember it still. Of course, the nightmares help keep it in focus.

As a ballroom dancer, my partner and I have to listen to the same music but can't both be teathered to ear buds. With a 4g Itouch playing to her bluetooth headset, would I also get a signal out of the headphones port so that I remain teathered to the buds, or does that port get turned off when BT is in operation?
OR, does ayone know if the Itouch can talk to two BT headphones at the same time?

Meanwhile in the world of tablets, RIMM is having problems:
Earlier this week it was a breakout of sudden playbook death syndrome.
Users report BlackBerry PlayBooks failing to restart (http://www.infoworld.com/d/mobile-technology/users-report-blackberry-playbooks-failing-restart-992)
APRIL 25, 2011
"Some BlackBerry PlayBook tablets that Research in Motion released last Tuesday are suddenly failing to restart. Some even simply stop working while in use and do not restart. InfoWorld.com experienced this issue with its own review unit after three days of use, and moe than a dozen users have reported the identical problem on RIM's BlackBerry.com support site.
The initial reports began on the evening of April 20, one day after the PlayBook was released, though most users reported the problem after a few days of activity. For units experiencing this "sudden death syndrome," the PlayBook's indicator light double-blinks when turned on but the screen remains black."
Now the company can't deliver its phones and the CEO is having a hard time with questions about security:
BlackBerry maker starts to feel serious squeeze (http://www.brecorder.com/world/global-business-a-economy/12934-blackberry-maker-starts-to-feel-serious-squeeze.html)
FRIDAY, 29 APRIL 2011
"Research In Motion is starting to feel a serious squeeze. The BlackBerry maker is hemorrhaging market share and just warned product delays are hurting sales. The pressure is showing: its co-CEO recently stormed off a TV interview when asked about security issues. RIMM needs to compose itself if a new tablet and operating system are to keep the firm relevant.
Cutting estimates just weeks after issuing them hardly inspires confidence. The company warned hold-ups bringing out new handsets scared off customers. Those still buying RIM devices in the United States and Latin America are choosing cheaper, lower-end ones. As a result, earnings per share will actually shrink slightly, despite the booming market for smartphones."
...
Poor RIMM. I think the end is near.

If you like stuff like that, take a look at Simple desktops.com (http://www.simpledesktops.com). Nice.
AWESOME!! Great site, thank you.

I photoshopped most of the things out and im using it, but i would love the original please :)
Cheers!
This is just the detail of an image I've done for some contest. It's not over yet so I can't give the original. When it's finished I'll post it.:D

Sure, put an Airport Express in every room with a set of speakers plugged in to each one and your done. Play music from your Mac, iPod Touch or iPhone to one or multiple rooms.
I think he meant, that besides the standard edition, there will also be a model with iChat itegrated. BTW, iChat Mobile is an old name. I saw it on this board several months ago.
My Siemens MC60 is getting pretty old. I really hope they release it before February 9th (my birthday:D ).

I've been a member of these forums for a long time now, and I really like it here, I've learnt a lot and had a lot of fun too. But, to move to the next level and actually become part of the MR team it is obvious to any idiot (even me!) that some of my old habits have to die, and I do need to be able to account for my actions. So yes, my posting may have changed slightly, but without that change my name wouldn't be in this list now, and I wouldn't be able to wasteland that spam!! :D
Evolution...;) :)Which leads us to the other part of that post...
"Battle of the Hottest Avatars" & "Let the battle commence!"
You already know where that'll lead, lot's of complaints.
So that rally call may not be a good idea.
Heck I get enough complaints about my tar choices as it is, how many compaints would that thread generate?

ok, still waiting on graphics card. Wiring is neater now.
But I'm still having an issue with running video feeds from the internet. The MDD is ethernet wired rather than airport. Its really choppy with maybe 2 or 3 frames per second but perfect sound.
Could this be the video card? I've got 2Gb of ram now so that sorts that end of things. Will the ATi 9700 128mb DDR solve the issue?
What interface/app are you using to watch video and from what streaming source?
From what you explain I would guess you are running h.264 streams that may be beyond your Macs capability. My single 1.8 7448 G4 would easily outperform your dual 867 and I can't go above 480p h.264.
For the best video playback experience on your hardware I would restrict it to 480p and lower h.264 and DivX/XviD up to 720p. It's also all about the player you use. On PowerPC chips Quicktime generally uses up to double the CPU vs. VLC or Mplayer.
Give me specifics about codec and apps used and I can help you solve this issue no matter what video card you have.
