I would say that $24 is trivial IF that's the final design. The truth is that the cost doesn't leave much room for error or experimentation.

Everything costs more now than it did a year ago... except for THIS, and we are still complaining that a 90-99% reduction in cost is STILL too expensive. And a 50-75% reduction in time is STILL too long.
We used to have to wait for weeks for a design like that when I worked at a consultancy, and that is a week of salary. For the design, then it got handed off to a front end developer to slice it and get built so the back end developer can hook it up to a CRM. We are talking a month turn around with design, revisions, development, testing, and bug fixing.
It can now be done in a couple of hours for less than a single hour's cost. If it were 10x slower and 10x more expensive, it would STILL be "good deal".
Compared to what?
Yeah if you are solo developer without budget.
For any business this is nothing, the ROI is massive.
