Top 8 Dreaded Favors Asked of Web Designers.
There are a million questions that could be asked and most span multiple careers, but Web Design Ledger has what it thinks are the top eight most horrific questions a family member / friend / client can ask you.
“Can you take a look at my site and tell me what you think?”
“Um, would you mind designing my site… for free?”
“Can you help me design my site to look like ______?”
“I think I have a virus.”
“Let me help you with any of your extra work.”
“So, it’s been a minute… How much longer is it going to take?”
“Can I use your server until I get my own hosting?”
“Hey, I volunteered you to re-do ______.”
Visit Web Design Ledger for scenarios of each dilemma and lessons learned.  The main problem I tend to run into is clients want a million mockups.  I promise them one, maybe two at max, then let them sit on it for a bit.

UGH been here… I also hate people who think designing websites and or graphics will only take a few minutes so they’re constantly looking over your shoulder or trying to give you input…
