Customers Are Sent To Try Us

Sometimes it seems that customers are sent to try us out! Yesterday I had just finished publishing a new website and was in the process of handing it over when the question came - could we change the background colour of the links.

And change the colour of another part of the screen.

And move the links to another part of the screen.

And change the entire menu structure of the website.

And change all of the graphics on the home page.

And change the text in some buttons.

You get the idea. The back end of the site stays the same but the entire website look and feel is to be changed. How we managed to get so far through the project without him raising these issues I just don't know. We were passing latest samples of the site to the customer a couple of times per day and small changes were coming back, but how it becomes an entire restyle the day it's published, I just don't know!

It's back to the drawing board for that site. It will go live again in a few weeks!
