Why oh why…

As I’ve mentioned earlier we’re going through a re-branding exercise here. In fact we’re nearly done, The designers sent us the CD with the finished artwork on Monday

Now, when I briefed them I explained that things like our proposal template had to be useable in Word, and that the website design had to be easy to to install and use in our CMS.

I, however, was not responsible for signing off on quotes and those requirements weren’t reflected.

So on Monday I got a CD containing templates in InDesign… This is a mjor pain in the neck, but not impossible – I can, and have, converted them the word. (Although changing elegant simple InDesign into crappy Word hurts me in my heart)

We also got the the Website design

In Photoshop.

I could rant about why this drives me insane  – But the ‘vark guys have already said it better – go and read their comments on Photoshop as a web design tool.

And if you are a designer. Please learn – there is a difference between screen and paper.
