„Work with Ionut” terms for 2011
Even if by now I’ve accepted all kind of tasks, now I’m trying to filter somehow my projects. So, if by now i had this terms:
- IE6 Support: +15% on final bill;
- IE7 Support: +5% on final bill;
I decided to change things a little. So, here it is:
- No IE<7 support. At all.
- IE7 testing & support: +15% on final bill.
- Everything that can be done using modern technologies, will be done using… modern technologies. This mean: shadows (text shadow, box shadow), rounded corners and everything else will be done using CSS3. This means cleaner code, but also that IE<9 will display the site a little... different. Not broken, just different. After all, „Do websites need to look exactly the same in every browser?” If you want to find somebody to blame, try here here.
So browser that are guaranteed are the latest stable versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and Internet Explorer. No Beta versions, no RC versions. When IE9 Final will be out, I’ll offer support for both IE8 and IE9.
Reasons
You wonder why I’m doing this. Maybe I’m not capable to deal with IE? Maybe I’m not good enough? Well… Maybe. Maybe not. I have an extensive experience with all browsers, so you can check my portfolio or testimonials page. I’m just tired of requests that nobody cares about (let’s be honest, most of your users won’t even know there is something „wrong” with your site in their browsers!) and all hours spent on fixing bugs on ancient browsers (IE7 has ~5years, IE6 has ~10 years; If web as we know it has 20 years, do the math!).

If you still want to work with me please tell me what you need.
