A all around web designer who knows his calling. He is here to give the design, not to be an extended extremity for a client! There is a reason they are the client, and we are the designers! Bravo for this article, I totally agree with Sam Brown! This is one of those things clients fear the most. A all around web designer who knows his calling.

The stuff I say here in this article is more wishful thinking and my outlook and personal working philosophy. When you're operating with the average Joe clients off the street some times you just have to do your best and form some sort of compromise... because at the end of the day, everyone needs paid! In an ideal world it would be great to be able to pick and choose though. :-) I too am guilty of just giving in!

Although sometimes in the past I have gave in. There comes a point in a project where it's not worth the time and effort due to the budget. If you're lucky you can target the type of clients you like to get e.g. clients who are web savvy and trust your judgment no questions asked. I think Sam has done a good job of this (going by his portfolio anyway). Totally agree too. Although sometimes in the past I have gave in.
