Hello,

I would like to offer my php coding service for only $0.20 per line... thats only $20 per 100 lines!

Please contact me with what you need doing, and I will give you a quote.

Regards,

Fred Harrington

Heh, per line? You can write the whole code in one line.

function byByFiveBucks ($bucks)
/*

This function takes one argument:
$bucks
and returns:
FALSE

*/

{

if($bucks == 5)
{
return FALSE ;
}
elseif ( $bucks > 5)
{
return FALSE ;
}
else
{
return FALSE ;
}

}

function byByFiveBucks ($bucks) { if($bucks == 5) { return FALSE ; } elseif ( $bucks > 5) { return FALSE ; } else { return FALSE ; } }

Either way I doubt somebody would gip you like this :rolleyes: Most "lines" go all the way across the users screen and then go to the next line.

Good offer :D

oh i made a whole solitaire program in C++ in first year at my university. how much do i get ?

I laugh at this.

You laugh at this? I laugh at you.

I use wordwrap, so thats how I define a line.

You people really need to find something better to do than crapping all over others legitimate threads.

Nothing, because I am selling php coding. not buying c++.

What if I'm not happy with the price at the end?

I quote you first.

If the end result has less lines than what you paid for, then you only pay for that amount.

So why not just give a quote for the software since in the end the customer pays that quote anyway?

I'm doing HTML coding, for 00.5 cents/line!

Thanks for once again crapping on my thread!

You must feel real proud!

Geez, why do some of you have to be so lame? he is offering a legitimate service, this thread advertises if your looking for this service, not what you think about this service. So if you have stupid little petty comments that arent going to positively contribute to this thread then you should try and keep them to yourself.

And I actually think this is a good idea, I will be contacting you in a few days dynamitehost, regarding some coding that I need done.

Thanks,

Do lines full of comments come free? Or are comment lines also 0.20?

Yeah, nice offer dynamite... I have a little project I am in need of, look for my email soon! :)

hey a coder finally caught onto my idea ;), sorry for crappin on your thread.

how many lines of code to make ebay?

nice question =)

dynamitehost, don't sweat it guy... some people are just thick-headed, and not worthy

Considering you said you use word wrap, this doesn't seem like a bad deal.

I may be contacting you

Don't let them get to you Dynamite, good idea.

Its a very good idea, since its coming from the seller not the buyer. As opposed to having the buyer say that, there is a chance that in order to make more money the coder could do the same process a different way that would get him more money but be less efficent. Good luck with your service and may your codes be well written and well appreciated.

Thank you for all the constructive comments and approval.


Anyone who is interested, feel free to contact me at any time ;)

Ummm I did so, via email through the board, still waiting on your reply though. :eek:

Sorry guy, my email was a little quirky... I think the roadrunner is about tuckered out! :blush: Reading your email now, sir!

Thanks for getting back to me!

I may need someone to add to a custom app I paid good money for and the coder did not really ever finish what all I asked for. would you be interested in adding to someone someones work?

newpop, sure, I could give it a go :)

Contact me with the details.

Good idea Dynamite....Sometimes ya wonder if this is a web hosting forum, or a playground :)

Thanks... although, it wasn't completely my idea, so I can't take all the credit :)

It's a good idea, and good luck with it.

You aren't going to be coding on a 640*400 screen though are you? That would get about 3 words to a line ;)

no, 1152 by 864

I'd agree, it's a great idea, maybe a li'l cheap, but if you can get quite a bit done inside of an hour, would be a decent hourly wage:) Good luck!!

Don't take this as "crapping on yoru thread", but since everyone else is giving their opinion, I'll give mine.

I don't think charging per line is a good idea, JMHO. Commenting lines and making code readable is good coding practice. So the coder either:
1) Uses comments and makes it readable, and the customer gets upset
2) Coder tries to force as much on one line to appease customer, makes code harder to read/edit/follow/update.

I don't think either is a good option, jmho.

The difference is, you're trying to give constructive criticism why you think it's a bad idea, instead of saying something to the tune of:

"This idea sucks!"

who's was it? lol ;)

Out of curiosity, do you take money orders?(ie. mailed cash)

Sure, but we are located in the UK, so we will have to add a $10 charge which covers the costs set by our bank...

Good luck Dynamite host.

I know first-hand how much PHP coded works can sometimes cost, and you are offering a very good price!

I'm not personaly experienced enough to do websites into full PHP yet although I do have staff members who are, and I know from some of the requests we get how much money can be made from this way of scripting and how expensive the costs can be.


You are offing a good service good luck! :)

I have a task I am working on that I need a profile script for. What I am needing is a PHP with database script similar to this:
http://www.streetsourcemag.com/OwnerProfiles.aspx
I would also need to be able to use it with seperate sites and databases. Thanks for any help!

I should be able to help you with this without a problem :)

I shall contact you later today with a quote.

Well I am now in day 8... yes day 8 and still waiting for the simple poll script I already paid for. I stopped getting emails back from this guy 3 days ago when he said he had it 60% complete..

I am not the best programmer in the world but does it take 8 whole days to create a simple on-line poll?

8 days????? :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

dynamitehost,

Your idea of charging per line is ridiculous since there is no standards how to do it. Look how many things you need to consider: resolution, font size, font properties, comments (less comments = poor docs, lots of comments = more money to be paid), efficiency, modulating the program will cause more lines of typing. I don't see why anyone should take you seriously since you can't even price your own work.

He gave me a price... I accepted the price... I paid him that price and I never got my program.. He is not man enough to even answer his damn email....

Heh, people say we crap the thread when we're trying to avoid situation just like this one GWDGui.

I agree. I was going to order off of him, but I guess not anymore lol..

Hi, I must add that this idea is beyond stupid, it is actually funny ... it borders on the concept of 'How long is a piece os string"

I'm a C++ programmer so i will use a C example.

Example1:
int nNumber = 0;
int nIdx;
nIdx = 0;
for( nIdx = 0; nIdx < 5; nIdx ++)
{
nNumber = nNumber + nIdx;
}

Example2:
int nNumber = 0;
int nIdx = 0;
for( nIdx = 0; nIdx < 5; nIdx ++)
{ nNumber = nNumber + nIdx; }

Example3:
for( int nIdx=0;nIdx<5;nIdx ++){nNumber=nNumber+Idx;}

All these do the same thing .. the difference would come with the programmers coding style, coding standards used, experience and efficiency ...

I mean what if the code is buggy ... Do I get a refund for every line of buggy or inneficient code ...
