""I need a logo design, but I only have $100. I know, I'll hold a contest!" No."
as if this wasn't already very helpful, that one line makes for total win.
I found nothing at all unclear, and it makes me want to try and do some work again :p but I don't have the programs to do it and any pixel art I do will be that fantasy of a game idea I have. Although, when discussing payment, I don't believe you talked much about paying by the asset. surely I'm not the only one to ever have done that? I've always found hourly wages too confusing because when I pixel I very often do it while IMing and suchery and would find it unfair to make someone pay for an hour if half of it was " lol omg"
