Hah! My designs were acceptable, but they are choosing to do the work in-house as they can maintain it more quickly (and because it'd likely cost less in the end). An acceptable argument, IMHO, web design/maintenance is not a 5 minute thing...
My own personal belief is that corporations would get the most bang for the buck by doing things in-house when possible and utilize their loyal staff. (Indeed, I have noted that over the last 2 years, they were often slow at getting to me... this move was probably a good one.)
All is not lost. We are parting on amicable terms, I will be compensated for the time used in making my designs, and I will help them move to a new host.
I also have heard from a top source that he would have told me if none of the designs was acceptable. (other people have told me I have some creativity in my work so I'm not crying or anything goofy. :-) There's always a way...)
I did work several hours on several new designs for them, but I will settle for maybe half that. (there's also the small amount of work I did prior to that needs to be compensated for as well.)
But it's funny. As more of corporate America goes outsourcing, I lost a client for the opposite reason. LOL!
Still, it's life, isn't it? :D
Yes, I am laughing right now. There are no hard feelings, to say the least.
