Hi Terry,

Actually, in this situation that would not have worked. The client basically said if I didn't accept a reduced fee, I could just keep the project and forgot the whole thing (in other words, he was going to find someone else to do it all over again and not use the work I had done). At that point I knew I was dealing with something a little on the unreasonable side. Also, even if he didn't use my work I had given him an interface design he was very very happy with so that the next "guy" could base his work on that. So I decided to take 1/2 and move on. Fortunately, I have finally received that payment.
