Now, it's not so much the designing part that I'm having trouble with, it's more of the "coding it with working links and proper sized photos, and getting it to work on the hosting site that you already paid for to find out that they don't support your format of template...."
I fell in love with website design and blogging when I was 15 years old, even going to lengths of learning HTML. But technology has taken the train into the future while I continue to walk, and to say the least, I am a little behind.
All of these are very different than one another, but I have found that for a person with little development and coding knowledge, Moonfruit has worked the best.
Unfortunately it's not compatible with Hostpapa who my client has signed up with, which leaves me with my hands tied again. Do I try to recreate this website on my own and risk it looking bad and not being useable, hire a developer, or try to convince my client to switch over?
The comment box is open to all of my designer friends!
What kind of client/site is it?
ReplyDeleteI'm not a designer but as you know I actively work with both designers & developers... what part of moonfruit isn't compatible the hosting your client signed up for?
I would lay out the options - assuming they know you are a designer & not a developer (which they should), tell them you're most comfortable working in Moonfruit. Then lay out the options: hiring a developer (send a quote - make sure you have someone reliable lined up in advance), changing her hosting, or you can take a shot in the dark but can't guarantee the results.
