I pinged sidegeek for a custom blog design. He quoted a very attractive price, so I immediately took him up on it.
That was the best decision I've made this week. This guy is absolutely phenomenal. Not only did he finish the design in record time, he followed the exact specs! Anyone who's done custom work for me will tell you I'm a dick when it comes to specs - I want things done just right, no exceptions. And Sidegeek delivered. He patiently made every single change I wanted because, according to him - "I want to do this right". That's the kind of attitude you want in a designer/developer/anyone.
Speed: 5/5 - OP claimed a 5-day turnaround, delivered in 72 hours.
Communication: 5/5 - OP was always available on Skype (when does this guy sleep?)
Quality: 5/5 - I got exactly what I wanted. Couldn't be happier.
Price: 5/5 - $125 for a custom blog design from Sidegeek is an absolute steal. When it turned out the design would take more time than originally anticipated, he patiently plowed through it and got it done.
Overall: 5/5 - Sidegeek is now my go-to guy for wordpress blog design. I was so impressed with his work and work ethic that I sent him a 50% bonus. (Mostly because I felt I was robbing him, considering the work he delivered and the price he charged for it).
It was a pleasure working with you.
