1. please drop this thread as it has been gone over a lot and tends to get into a fight. 2. There is NO LAW at all against discussing what you charge. There's only a law if you get together with others to set standard prices for work and even then there are limitations and issues. 3. A CF programmer is paid on their experience, ability to do the job and other, less technical factors. 4. Rates run the range of 5-10 dollars an hour for beginners or people that want to just 'help out' to upwards of 200-300 for hard core professionals with a real business structure behind them. Personally, I know of only one or two people in that high end and they aren't me. 5. A programmer who is 100% (or more) solid on the core of CF, very solid on the esoteric stuff, knows additional technologies (Javascript, DHTML, Flash, SQL, Etc.), is up to date on the current techniques and has a good head for integrating the technology into a whole can expect to see anywhere from 35-120 an hour based on a huge number of factors. Final: There are way to many variables to calculate in order to say what someone should ask on a job. Anything that anyone says, suggests or is getting should be taken with a grain of salt the size of Gate's fortune.
