Re: FN-FORUM: Clients from Hell: for Gary

There seems to be a bit of a cliche with design, most people I meet tend to
think that you can just slap together a pro looking design in an hour or two
whereas more likely you can spend (at least in my case) days on end trying
to get the right result.

That's what really gets on my nerves, when they ask 'how can it take a day
to....) from people who haven't a clue what their on about, yes sir, I'm
sure I can slap together a site like 2advanced by this afternoon, no
problemo.
