I’m considering another job. My employer is not to sure about design, so the more morons criticizing me, the better. Building the website is taking a full year by now! Another redesign and I quit. Nothing’s worth this.

I was recently working with a speaker/presenter on his website, and working together turned into a horror show. I agreed to design his website, and everything was good at first. Later the guy believed that his money could buy everything. It turns out he was planning to have a web maid, instead of a web designer. After the overall design was agreed on, he continued to request constant changes to the design, text, images, and photos. As a speaker, he was great, as a client, he “SUCKED”. Keep away from speakers!

I agree. It is miserable to have a lot of people say what it should look like.

The solution is to make 1 person responsible for the design process, although this can be difficult to achieve. Other than that a rigid brief can be used to justify any decision making and stop dissent.
