Well, the worst case was when a client delivered a PSD (if it can be called like that, because actually it was a puzzle of cutted images in one single photoshop document) and requested that I use the same fonts as in the PSD (emm…which fonts? on which PSD?).

Anyway some times they make my day, but other times they make my nervs..

The points #5 and #7 are a real big problem that a designer often encounters. The article really deserves appreciation. It has in it all the practical problems regularly faced by designers and this proves how meticulously it has been written.Nice observation!!!

Great work. Looking to see some more interesting articles in near future.

I recently had a few clients who were “concerened” that even though the site was submitted yesterday on Google they are not yet on listed. Why on earth!!!

What should I answer? Well I explained how it works. And then when I talked about google rank - Guess what I am glad I was paid beforehand. Otherwise you can guess “No site on google no pay” lol
