Buyers beware, many of Eduardo's designs are not unique - and his "amazing half off specials" usually mean you get half the work or somebody elses designs respun.

I would rarely leave a negative review like this, but I suggest customers have concrete agreements in place with Eduardo on both quality and uniqueness before engaging. Dude is capable of good work when he wants too, at prices way north of what is advertised above.

Affiliates I have had my issues in the past with designs and it was a bad strategy from my part to offer my cheap "quickies" back early 2010 and I know some affiliates were displeased. I apologize once again for my mistakes. My discounted promotion offers genuine top of the line design created absolutely from scratch tailored to meet your absolute needs. As MJ says feel free to talk to me concretely on quality and uniqueness and I can guarantee you wont be disappointed.

I've worked with Eduardo ever since he designed Pokerfornia.com for me a few years back. We probably worked on a half a dozen projects since, and I'm really happy with the stuff I get back. I guess uniqueness will increase with budget, as MJ said, but if you have a vision and a budget, this guy has top notch skills second to none. Check out Pino's site in his sig too.

Yea I know some members have taken issues with Eduardo's work - especially his WP theme designs that were eventually resold a bunch in the past. His logo work and image work though is normally pretty top-notch, and I've worked with other designers from 99Designs that weren't even close to his level.

I can't speak for MJ's displeasure, but I know the logos and mascots I've received have been great and up until the latter part of 2010 Eduardo had a fine reputation. His themes may have lagged, and his ability to hire good coders to fix all the internal validation errors in them costed him dearly - but in the end I still think Eduardo is one of the best designers out there.

He's been doing some great small logo work for me lately... for templates just let him know exactly what you want (draw up a mock up) and you should be happy with it.

[MJ]

There is two issues here that I can see, and one being why I specifically spoke up:

1. Eduardos designs I've seen many of have been respun and resold, way too many too list. Sounds like that complaint is addressed above.

2. Eduardo often lists "super dooper sales" in this thread advertising 50% off, and I'm arguing that quality does not equate in fact he flat out tried to take advantage of me with an 8 x logo sale. I think this is basically addresed above too.

I'm not going to get into a pissing match here, and I doubt Eduardo would want me to line this thread up with the dozens of examples I and other members could share, I commend Eduardo for being honest about the past (heard that same speech couple months ago but maybe this time he means it for real).

Edit - no more from me on this topic, don't pm or skype about it I was just warning pal members to use discretion. The guy is certainly capable of doing good work I just won't be working with him personally.

[KevinMcC]

Definitely wasn't taking sides here at all... just meant if you're afraid of getting a generic template that someone else has draw a mock up on paint for it and if it isn't what your looking for when you get the mock up back from him tell him what you want changed.. you don't have to settle for something you don't like or think looks too much like someone elses.

Wasn't trying to suck Eduardo's c*ck off with my post either. Yes, I'll admit he's a good friend of mine and I've worked with him since he first started doing work on SlotsGeek back in the day - but I've had my fair share of talks with him in the past regarding the re-spun templates and letting him know he needs to let his work do the talking if he's going to see ANY return clients in 2011 and beyond.

The images and mascots he's made for me and so many other members speak for themselves IMHO, and the complaints I have heard were mainly regarding the re-colored and re-spun templates that were sold - and the shitty coding that went along with them.

Once again MJ, that totally blows you got hosed on work you ordered from him - you deserve to out anyone you want, you've earned that respect...I just felt I wanted to add a little more transparency to the grand scheme of things and say Eduardo's work is normally pretty spot-on and that I hope things change and get better for him in the New Year.

Everyone deserves another shot sometimes - I know that all too well myself.

[MJ]

he needs to let his work do the talking if he's going to see ANY return clients in 2011 and beyond.

This is all that matters, and time will tell.

I'm oughta this thread though, as I was speaking up only because nobody else had.
