In short
• Design a site for client
• They pay you
• Make a few updates
• They pay you
• They want to take over the updates
• No Problem
• They start using graphics like this...
Anyone experience this in the past?

I've sent them an email letting em know that they're compromising their website with graphics like this, and that they should reconsider making changes like this, or get a designer to make them.

I loved the site, and now I'm going to have to remove it from my folio, or at least not link to the actual site and possibly get them to remove my company link from the footer of all pages. One less folio piece of guess.
Do you guys have anything in your contracts about this? Or once you create something is that the end?
- you can't keep them from updating their site...just put your own copy on your sitedbloc

The client are great young guys, I've got a good rapport with both of them as I did their bootcamps for almost a year.
I've always been one to speak my mind and not wrap shit up in cotton wool, I've let them know, so hopefully they respond with something positive.

And their aligning things to centre...Ahhhhhh!!!!!!
Downside to not working in print I guess.

But what you do looks pretty easy. I reckon anyone could do it. It’s just web sites ’n stuff.
Looks like they passed the work onto ’Ave-a-go Web Page Artists™
