Knowing when to trust people

Hey,
Well I heard back yesterday from a company that I reserved space for on DeuceAce poker forums.

After more than 3 weeks they told me that they didn't want to buy space I was reserving for them.

Just from the time I trusted them and reserved the space, I lost over $600.

I wont name them here because I don't think that does any good to anyone.

Normally I am very trusting with people when it comes to money, but before this I waiting for nearly 2 months for another company to pay up for space I reserved for them.

I have done it lots of times and normally there are no problems, last time was with Rakenut and they were amazing, they paid for the space, which I never thought otherwise, and now I have a great partnership with them and they are easily one of my best advertisers.



On another note, I got one of my designs/logos back and its coded to HTML now.

You can see it here: http://www.bannersquare.com/design/2006/html/vb1/

It is going to be coded to GameScript and vBulletin.

I was never going to start an arcade (Damn I lost SO much money, if only I started my own arcade when I owned GameScript!) but I am doing this for someone else.
Nice little design I think :)

Just noticed - The design up now doesn't have my logo.
I have my own logo designed for the site so I will update it tonight or tomorrow with the version with my logo.




Orlando in 5 days!

I am heading to Orlando for 2 weeks this Saturday.
I have to stay in London Gatwick the night before because my flight is from London early in the morning.

Just booked a hotel to stay overnight.

I accidentally booked two return flights to London haha.
I couldn't get a refund though so they were a complete waste..



Working on holidays

What does everyone think about working on holidays?

I dont want to work when Im away and the other half wont be too happy, but I think need to do it to make sure everything is going ok, mainly with the people I have doing work for me, I hired quite a lot of people to do a lot of work while I was away and I want to make sure they are keeping on schedule because there's a lot riding on the work from each person.


Thats it for now :)
