Why do some people don’t get it when I say, I don’t do free designing, regardless of whether is it Graphics for Tees, or uniforms, or namecard or logos?
Do they need me to explain to them in egg and chicken manner like, if you asked a chicken rice seller to give you some free food, he’ll only give u the pandan he used to cook the rice with and you can try to lick up the rice stucked to it?
Such people have no understanding of designs, they think such things are done by a swish of magic wand. No wonder designers are paid so lowly in Singapore.
That’s why I dislike that buyer who always sa-shay into our designers’ office and asked my new colleague to help him scan/draw some logo.
If he thinks it’s oh-so-easy-baby, why don’t I see him pick up the software himself? He can draw draw tens of thousands of logos everyday man. Don’t even have to step into our office.
Sad to feel for him this way, when I actually thought he’s a rather charming guy for his age initially. BLERH.

The worst would be the type of people whom out of the kindness of your heart, you did a design for them for free and then they have the audacity to criticise it to pieces.
You so good. You come and do it yourself lah! NB….

i cannot agree with you more…sigh.
the reason why there’s so much crap design out there is because there are so many crap clients.
