That’s why my minimum development fee is $500, to discourage people from making requests of this nature. I help many people with small projects for free, in public forums. Unfortunately I’ve discovered, after 5 decades of programming, that the more difficult and exasperating part of the process is figuring out what the client wants. Too often, the client expects the programmer to read minds. And too often, the client expects to get something for nothing. TANSTAAFL. I’ve gone to extraordinary lengths, creating an entire free TradeTight.org website, with thousands of informative entries, to “fill in the educational gap” for the OT community, regarding how to LEARN about OmniLanguage, and providing hundreds of examples. Countless times, I’ve worked from people’s requests to create solutions for free, on that site and also here. But I draw the line when there is a communication barrier, or when the person refuses to cooperate. And btw - “gratitude” is not expressed by criticism.
