  what about people who pronounce it "jiff"?

  • Idiots.– MrOneHundred1/15

    NERDS!
    i also hate the term SWIFF. it's a fucking S.W.F. it's not a "quicker, cleaner upper"!!!– lvl_132/15

    i don't.– skt6/15

    I'm numb to "swiff", but "jiff", "ping", and "yerl" tap right on my spine.– blaw7/15

    swiff is necessary because of the w - that bumps it up to five fucking syllables. i don't have time for five syllables.– paraselene8/15

    we used to say "jiff" on odd days of the week and "gif" on even days to confuse the suits– vaxorcist10/15

    I think jiff is technically the right pronounciation. It took me years to accept swiff. I won't accept flah– CyBrain11/15

  multi page illustrator documents is a misnomer, it's really just one page that becomes multiple pages when you output it to something else

  5. When asked about it throw a fit about how you are the lead designer and nothing you do is wrong and then start ranting and yelling in another language NO ONE ELSE KNOWS!

  I just got a lecture from our senior designer about logo design. We had been working on the same project, his option was images straight from shutterstock with a line of text mine were original icons drawn by myself and he gave me a talk on the 'logo creative process'.

  Oh and my option was the one the client selected.

  Ok - since you opened the door on this, I'm going to add to the bitch-fest.

  Why can't desingers/creatives learn how to properly label layers in PSD's? 50 million complex layers with all sorts of tweaks and placements and you spend 3 hours trying to figure out what's what in a sea of "Layer 3".

  Rant over. As you were.

  • I think their really should be some standardization helped from adobe on this. I know naming folders but give out some tutorials so designers dont overlap on this subj– Iggyboo1/2

    tutorials to newbie designers so that they don't waste other designers time on rebuilding files.– Iggyboo2/2

  these all sound like the traits of a poorly-trained production role; not that of a designer.

  No, this sounds like a poorly trained designer. Production can't get away with this kind of BS. Designers think nothing of it, because they don't have to make their stuff work in the real world.

  • what kind of shite is that? who does make it work in the real world then?– skt1/3

    the production artists, skt, that's who– monospaced2/3

    just give it to the intern. lol.– akrokdesign3/3
