OMG. He totally killed the design I made. Why even have me make it if you're just going to screw it up? It looks pretty fraking awful now. (caps: 1024x768, 1280x1024)

It was supposed to look like this.

I'm just glad I didn't put my name on it anywhere because he's basically destroyed the awesome layout I made and turned it into a horrible mess. He made the text HUGE (now the menu looks screwed up) and then added the additional out of place side columns. He then removed the gallery I spent time installing and threw in an awful, poorly-sized flash gallery. It's no longer easily viewable at a small screen resolution.

Ugh. I'm disgusted.

I'm debating whether or not I should write him some sort of e-mail, but I probably shouldn't... as I could not contain the anger and snark.

ETA: Rather than an evil letter, I would like to write this passive aggressive one:

I'm glad you finally got the layout up. However, I wish you would have consulted with me before you edited my design as now it no longer represents my design nor my quality of work.

My Moo postcards came in today. They're really lovely prints! I think maybe I should have them do all my printing now :P The question is whether or not I want to mat these to giveaway at DragonCon, or just give them away as is. Hmm....

ARGH. My decalgirl order came in as well... but they sent me the skin for the wrong EnV! Blargh. Which sucks, because I've really been looking forward to have the skin on my phone. Now I have to go through the hassle of returning it and waiting for it to process and then waiting for mine to arrive. ANNOYED.

So. My job? NUTS right now. I don't know what all is going on, but there are shake ups and insanity and... well, honestly, I'm really glad I'm done with it after this week.

Worked on commissions today. One is going along really well. The other... honestly, I just tried what he wanted and I think it looks pretty awful. Maybe it's just my rending. It's just... not really good. Ugh. Maybe it'll work out better once I have real photos and content to work with. Honestly, it looks pretty ghastly. And a bit like a page for a law firm, honestly. I'm probably going to tell him that.

Okay.. I totally went back and design something that I like and I think he'll like and it looks way better than what he wanted. I hope. Ugh. We shall see. I think it looks a thousand times better than what he wanted, actually. But who knows with clients.

GAH! BPAL posted their new Halloween scents last night and I was tempted by the Pumpkin Patch. Honestly, though, none of those notes work on me, so I was about to ditch when I noticed the Steamworks section! No. 93 Engine and Ether sound rather interesting. Then I poked around the rest of the catalog and I like the sound of The Unicorn and Mouse's Long Sad Tale, as well as Jack, but I don't know if I want to smell like pumpkin pie and peaches.

Actually got up and worked on one of my commissions this morning. I really like the way this one is coming together. Hopefully the client likes it as well. His music is fun and cheery and I'm hoping the site conveys that. Anyway, it was pretty fun. That other commission, though. Oy. I don't know what I'm going to do about that one. Suppose I should actually get started on it.
