11 Differences Between Designers And Clients Show Why They Will Never Understand Each Other
Designers and clients see everything so differently that a conflict is only a question of time . To illustrate this, 'Trust Me, I'm A "Designer"' made a witty animation that lists the things that cause the biggest disagreements.
From typefaces, to software - professionals and their clients cannot be any more different. It hits the very core of the problematic relationship between the two groups and shows why designers and clients will never be friends.

I do not see a contradiction here. A client normally uses Word, a program to write text and to give it _some_formatings. It is clear that professionalls for other jobs than writing a text will use other programs...be it Photoshop for editing graphics, Eclise for programming Java, or a CAD programm to specify a house.
One of the things I hate the most!! If they see an "empty" space, THEY MUST fill it up. They are paying for the whole space, so use it, dammit!!! *sigh*
I take issue with this one. Function is high in the list of priorities for a designer. If the objective is sales, the decisions we make must support that.
As a graphic designer these pictures speak to me on a deep level! But they forgot one! Designer: here is your finished product! client: that's great i love it but I'm wondering if you could change a few things...
^changes 100000 things client: great but i think i liked the old one better

And maybe change the logo, I'm not sure about the bear. That's a panda bear? Really? Can you photophop it into a bunny, asap? Thanks.
