    <body>Just walked away from a potential buyer of my artwork. They thought my price was way too high for a spot in a 20,000 publication run. They thought "credit" should be payment enough! Ha! Try getting a lawyer or a carpenter to take credit for payment! It feels good to walk away. </body>

    <body>How do you deal with a client who is trying to beat down your price?This is my third time working with this client and they are a great client, but it seems with each project, their budget is less and less (despite what I quote them). How do you guys approach these things with frugal clients?</body>

    <body>Trying to embed a youtube video in a html email. I've done this before and it was successful, but that was a while back. I've embedded it, and although it looks great in Apple Mail, it doesn't show up quite as nice in other email services, such as, yahoo or gmail. Any suggestions on how to fix this?</body>
