how much do flash developers get paid nowadays? (average)

[communista]

how much do flash developers, specifically those designing applications and probably freelancers, get paid nowadays? thanks!

[erova]

dollars? pounds? ducats?

in mobile alabama? san francisco? zimbabwe?

for design? integrated rich media app development?

flashkit's a worldwide community with a lot of people who use flash for different results.

you'll do better off finding a salary calculator on the web site of a local newspaper than asking how much a Swedish Flash bad-ass makes when you're trying to make banner ads in helena montana.

I get in the region of £25k per year. I work in the UK, outside of London.

It used to be more but I stopped freelancing bacause I found I had no time to relax - there needs to be a balance when you get to my age .

how much do they get paid per project? i'm developing an application that caters on tutoring preschoolers, which would be distributed via cd, (it's for my thesis project) and i need to compute for its market analysis, and it requires a developer's fee. and i think it would be better if that would be in US Dollars. thanks 4 the help guys!

My salary is very simple:

1 miiiiiiiiiiillion dollars!!!!




Truthfully, its hard to answer a question like "How much does a website cost?" or "How much should I get paid per project?"

Its kind of like "How much does a car cost?" - It all depends on the type of car.

Please don't undercharge yourself. Flashers need to earn as much as doctors. If you undercharge yourself, you'll drag the industry down.

what you charge for a project depends on a variety of factors :

exeprience
ability
timescales
complexity
overheads (if you have a team of people to pay you will want more to pay their wages as well as your own)
