Re: FN-FORUM: another one looking for freebies

Yeah saw that one the other day "send us a banner & your quote for the
work".. Almost fell out of my chair. Could you imagine saying to a bunch of
architects: "yeah design my house & give me a quote, I'll chose the one I
like & if I don't like any you can all fuck off whilst I steal all your
ideas"
Would love to know if anybody takes the bait.
