    Thanks for that post, I feel the same way too. I also dislike the people who want your work for review/affiliate/and sites with little or no meaning, just there to make a quick buck, I reject those offers all the time. I also hate people who want quality work for $5-$20, and the people who comply with those people's demands.

    As a former web designer of sorts, I think I will refer every single human being I contact that is looking to hire ANY web designer to this post.

    This was post was tight. It is a shame that people still don't respect the thought and time it takes to design and professional website. They think that everything virtual just magically comes into existence, and want to pay you according to that myth.

    Some good points!

    I hate clients who want to revise things to no end. They're just not content until they've nudged every little thing aspect of the design just to satisfy their own need to micromanage! Sure, you charge them for it, but it's always inconvenient and it's always super annoying.
