Hi guys,

I just had to share this link with you.
Be aware when your client is convinced of his  "webdesign skills"

That's hilarous. On that note, a recurring personal experience...

When you thoroughly design two nice layouts for the client to choose from, do NOT throw in a third one that's supposed to be bad enough for the client to have some perspective on how good the first two are.

I won't state the obvious result here.

And do remember to prep the sales person. Otherwise they'll happily steer the blind off the cliff.

LOL I have had that once! Unbelievable!!


Funny article (and site)! Thanks for sharing, Irene. And it didn't even take the horrible tings into account clients can do with a WYSIWYG editor....  :cry:
