[/quote] I assume that's in reference to the "neighbours kid" comment? It's completely true, there's a lot of neighbors kids on this forum and others like it that totally rock with making stuff look good. The problem that clients in the market for design work face in regards to that is that a lot of times they will blindly trust the neghbors kid, this blindness is usually an onset disease caused by the neighbor kid's price vs the "designer's". I've seen and worked with a lot of people that have fallen victim to this blindness from once to many times and are now ready for a professional [i]solution[/i] after applying a lot of expensive band-aids. This industry is saturated with neighbor kids and the majority of them are "miss" in the "hit-and-miss" client's hunt for talent. Not necessarily because of their ability to "mak something look good". There's a ton more goin into a design project than making something that looks good. Either the client or the designer needs to be a very focused, experienced marketer and strong communicator, or most likely less than stellar results will be the result. That said, there's a lot of crappy professional designers as well :D The thing for anyone in the market for design services needs to do is look at a portfolio, meet with the desinger and discuss the project in detail and call on references to get an idea of the workflow and professionalism of the designer before they become blinded by price issues. "You get what you pay for" is true but not everything, you also get (and pay for) what you ask for, or discuss. Communication on the front end of the project makes sure that you end up with a product that communicates to the marketplace.
