I have this client who want me to design his album cover and the whole digipack. The pictures he like and want on the cover are FUCKING CRAP! The guy have zero sense of esthetic.
He sent me like 150 pictures, all of them are pure crap nonsense. And he told me "a photographer took some amazing pictures" ... man, my mother takes better pictures! (no joke)
His band logo suck big time. His pictures sucks. He's telling me what to do... So right now i'm on automatic-pilot and I'm just shitting the project waiting for the check to arrive. Fun & creative factor currently at -25%

- Crop the pictures and make them sepia or something?bainbridge
- Is he paying you fairly? If so, do what he says, make some suggestions and then move on. Or drop him. Don't complain, we've all done shitty work.bainbridge
- Does he value your opinion or is he taking control? If he hired you for your expertise, tell him the truth. If you're a monkey, just suck it up.bainbridge
