So come on, what's the worse insult that's been thrown at you in terms of client feedback?
I've just had 'it's a bit powerpointy'
That's got to be hard to beat.

Client didn't know I was in the room on the call.
"This isn't working. You're going to need to get rid of the designer and have him replaced".
(Instead, client was replaced a month later.)

not the client but some woman whos features didn't make the final cut:
Woman: "I showed these designs to my friend last night and and she said it reminded her of a webpage from geocities" -

I'm working on a freelance project with in internal art department. The art director didn't agree with my choice of type for the initial comps (Avenir). He said "This is a poor font, the characters are misshapen."
His choice? Humainst501, that came with the copy of Corel Draw he uses.

my boss once said "that looks like something a GCSE art student would do!"

Hi Courtney,
It looks indeed more serious, credible and non-childish - but in the
same time also dull, uncreative and non-innovative.So tell the designer to do something more exiting- if he has that in him.

"Can you honestly say this is your best work?"
No, you twat I can't but when you provide me with a couple of hours to "knock up" a "few" different designs and don't actually tell me what needs to go on the page it's difficult to care.
