[thelist] help! client bought Photoshop!!

[Andrea Belk]

In regards to the suggestions on providing the client with a plethora of
information, you might want to be careful on how far you go. If they have
other resources available that they can ask whether 'calibrating the
arbitrary pixels' is valid, then you can potentially lose face. Even though
it is frustrating and you can see the potential problems to come, it's kind
of like raising a child - you have to let them go ahead and try and
potentially fail. My best suggestion is to sit back and try to REALLY put
yourself in their shoes. If they actually learn something, they might be a
better person for it.

Speaking of which, download the 'celestial babble' extension for
DreamWeaver.  VERY cool!

Actually, do you have access to a Debabelizer manual?  There's some great
(read: useful) stuff in there...

A good rule of thumb in logo design: Can it be embroidered?

In other words, if you're using the bevelembossdropshadowfire filter, back
the truck up.
