I HATE tables but I agree, tables are a good 'way out' when it comes to IE. Great site Adrian, keep up the good work!

Last month i had to BEG a fellow designer to update from IE6.... Great site btw :) - WilhelmR Wed, 18 Feb 2009 23:36:05 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-52 I once worked with a guy named Rob. He is a web developer like us. I fell in love with his quote on his "about us" page. It says [b]"Trust me... I'm a designer"[/b]. [url=http://www.blindsidecreative.com/about.html]Here is a link to it.[/url] I always thought that was brilliant! - Adrian Wed, 18 Feb 2009 07:59:34 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-51 #1 just kills me, and it happens -all the time- Imagine if I went to the Dr. and said "I've got a pain in my stomache, I need you to remove my appendix!" Well, what if it was just gass? Howzabout we let the professionals make the decisions, hm? Certainly the person paying the invoice gets the final say, but I've found it frequently takes a real effort to get the client to realize: 1) their website is not *for them* it's for their clients 2) if something's not "working" for them in the design - they just need to let us know, rather than try to diagnose the issue themselves and give us "the solution" ("make my logo bigger" cream, anyone?). Anyway, great post - thanks! - pearible Wed, 18 Feb 2009 07:12:47 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-50 Nice post. I totally agree with the #5. Sometimes it gets ridiculous when it comes to content. My boss recently wanted to completely redo our online inventory, and now I've spent the last few days going through thousands of products, with tons left to go. I guess the one good experience is that after we have it revised, it will be a major boost in sales. And #2 is right on point as well "What are you looking for in your website, what feel, how do you want your users to use your website" "Just make it work" ....what?! - Murray Wed, 18 Feb 2009 07:00:22 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-48 yeah Krissy, I think that's what he's saying. I also have had problems with clients not providing enough information. I usually like to ask them of some current web designs they like, to better understand the style they are looking for. - Matthew Heidenreich Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:38:11 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-47 If I'm understanding you correctly, the one who wants a site is basically not stating what they want, so you are having a difficulty creating it. Yes, that would be very irritating to me. They almost deserve the finished product they get for wasting your time! krissy knox follow me on twitter: http://www.twitter.com/iamkrissy - krissy Tue, 17 Feb 2009 16:00:53 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-45 @Matt, it is actually. But with windows updates you have to choice to do them or not...and I guess some people still don't for whatever dumb reason. - Adrian Tue, 17 Feb 2009 13:20:01 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-44 great article... and yes, IE6 should just die already. They should at least make it a manitory upgrade to IE7 - Matthew Heidenreich Tue, 17 Feb 2009 13:14:33 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-43 Glad you liked it! ;) - Adrian Tue, 17 Feb 2009 12:22:49 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-42 wow... you really made me smile while reading this article... i'm just a newborn freelance web designer and i think i am about to cry about #4 and #5... thanks for sharing this! - mimi Tue, 17 Feb 2009 12:19:22 +0100 http://www.blogfullbliss.com/10-Unfair-Facts-About-Web-Designing#comment-41 I totally agree.
