It's hard not to laugh...

but come on...these colors?:



These are the exact colors that someone wants for their web site. This is for a bi-weekly classifieds newspaper, and the colors of their paper no where resemble these 3 horridly clashing colors.

...the taste of some people.

Yes, it's very, very hard *not* to laugh my ass off at that scheme. but you know the drill:

they say jump!, we say how high?

my boss makes me create utterly ridiculous things almost daily, dude. I feel your pain.

This is where you use your superior sense of harmony and diplomatic powers of persuasion to gently guide the client toward a more complementary palette of colors.

Seriously....it's your duty to try, at least. They will likely thank you for it later.

Yeah, but later when they realize that they don't like it, then I'll charge them at double-time.

Can you code it using style sheets? That way, you can easily change it at any time....and easily show a couple different versions....One showing what they asked for, plus a couple, better, variations.

So...you're asking me NOT to be lazy and just do it how they ask? That's gonna' take some change on my part. I'm lazy by nature. As a matter of fact, it's pretty darn impossible to be as lazy as me.

those colors blind me. clients are stupid.

No, I think U23's point is to code it in CSS now... then when they hate it and ask you to change it, you update the CSS in 10 mins and charge them 20 hours.

Oh the colors!

Mattboy, you know that Nike ball really sucks as much ass as those colours? I read in a golf magazine (i play golf myself) that as far as range goes, the Nike ball came last..but it looks nice i suppose.
