Fold, Spindle

Another generation of technology has passed and Unicode support is almost everywhere. The next step is to write software that is not just “internationalized” but truly multilingual. In this article we will skip through a bit of history and theory, then illustrate a neat hack called accent-folding. Accent-folding has its limitations but it can help make some important yet overlooked user interactions work better.

It's tricky. Like with all freelance work, you have to give a price that's coherent with the market, or you'll be either out of the picture or screwed over and paid far too little.

If you have contacts with people who do the same job, ask them how much they charge. That sort of thing can vary wildly from a country to another.

The chocolate brown sounds good but you better be careful. Usually darker colors only look nice if the walls are made of sheetrock, rather than plaster or older walls. If you have a clean straight wall with no defects and the house is in good condition, I would go with darker. If you have a lighting problem, the lighter would be more key.
