The thought was a good one but the implementation is going to suck.

I got a design in from a friend and fellow ‘developer’. The design is great. It’s really cool. It would make a beautiful album cover or poster. But with all the graphics, textures, and backgrounds, it’s totally impracticable for web design. Everything would have to be an image, and most importantly, it leaves no room for growth or out of the box content.

Meaning, you’re limited to a few sentences. If you get more wordy than that with your news, descriptions, or song track titles it’ll break the layout.

How do I say this all very nicely when someone is pretty set on the look?

Until you know how to design and code properly, don't charge for your work. You make the rest of us look expensive. Ghost Ranch Logo
