Nice work, having done this sort of work myself I can appreciate the effort that goes into it. People dont really understand and think about how much planning goes into simple catchy designs/fonts and layout of projects...

Good job.

Thanks Blitz - yes, very much so. A huge amount of work to keep consistencies throughout and all the formatting, not to mention all the text that has to be checked over and over. Like anything, it appears straightforward enough until we try it ourselves.

Truly you speak! The worst part I think of that type work, is that often clients want something so specific, which reduces what us artists can do with our task....then again, sometimes having ultimate freedom doesnt get you very far either - especially with a picky client! They say "do whatever you want" and then they dont like anything haha. Maybe worst of all is when clients try to do stuff that looks bad! (bad color combinations etc) and you want to say "Im the designer, trust me!"

Well, just thought Id let you know I can appreciate the hard work

Yes, I totally agree with you. It's so common to experience that.
Simple-looking tasks are thwart with infinite unseen complications.
The process is complex and psychological. I wish I could master it.

I am particularly picky about who I work with doing that type of work now, since it is not my primary job but just extra side work I have the luxury of deciding how well the customer and I will work together first...

My younger sister did design like this for a living for several years and still does on the side as well, but I think she is glad to no longer be "forced" to take certain clients.

At any rate, well done.

I have friends who do it full time - the stress they go through is immense. I don't blame you or your sister.

I think you have to either have a reallly well payed position or be one of those extremely tolerant people...
