Green Living Magazine How much should I charge for graphic design services?

Question by latina_rojo82: How much should I charge for graphic design services?
I’ve been working as a graphic designer for a company for almost two years. Now, I’m starting to freelance. I’ve been contacted about a project but I don’t know how much to charge. The details are:

30 17×10.5 spreads for a magazine (for print and web use)
Design and Layout Only – Photos, Graphics and Text Provided
the business is a brand new green living style magazine
this is the second issue
can lead to future work

I know that I don’t want to charge per hour. I definitely want to charge a flat rate. What do you think is a fair, flat-rate for a project such as this?
I don’t think you know a lot about creative design if you think I’d charge minimum wage!

Graphic design per-hour fees range from $ 45 – 100 per hour. However, I am not looking to charge per hour.

Anyone with a real answer please stand up.

no more than minimum wage. not exactly brain surgery, hombre. just cut and paste.

everybody will charge the same rate for working, whatever the job. that is real equality. a national hourly rate will be posted each day and announced in the media.
