    Please don't top-post.

    This question doesn't have a direct answer.  Three major things
come into play: first, the type and scope of work involved; second,
your level of skill and what it's worth; and finally, the perceived
value of the cost-vs-service by the client.  If they think they're
getting a fair (or even great) deal, then the price is fine.

    The big thing that throws up a red flag is that you're asking
about what to bill a client for the work - if you're unsure of what to
charge for something like this, it says that you're not used to
performing at a professional level yet.  This isn't anything at all
against you personally, it's a mistake that nearly everyone makes when
they're first getting their feet wet in freelance services.  I'd
recommend reading through some forums and mailing list archives -
especially discussions between service buyers - to see what's fair and
going rate for your skill level and years of experience.

    Best of luck with everything, Ernie.


    P.S. - This is the "General" list, so you did ask in the right place.  ;-P
