Mini-site design question

aliduncan · 08-24-2009, 02:01 PM

Hi warriors,

Just a quick question:
When you order a mini-site package from a graphics designer, how do they send you the files and does this vary between designers?

Also, what would be the standard file type for the files that they will send you?

Thanks,
Ali

They normally send out the files via email as an attachment. I usually request the graphics be sent out in .jpg format. Many designers also include the .psd version of the graphics.

Thanks Mark,

Just another quick question:
Will most online email services (eg. g mail) allow files of this size to be sent and recieved?

Thanks again,
Ali

Most will allow files under 2 or 3 MB to be sent through email.

Anytime I have ordered, the files were either delivered through email as a zip file or were hosted on a free file hosting service for me to download.

If you didnt ask for a design to be coded, then they will most likley send you the .psd and the png or jpg. When i send designs, i usualy attach them to an email, it's never failed so far, so i think the atachments have enough room.
