    As a rule you can generally say that the less people spend, the more trouble they will be..
    I once had a similar experience with a client who visited, went through every single effing font on my machine...'hmm...can we go back to Verdana a second'...'no, carry on...'. 'Can we see Verdana again'...
    And similarly with the Hue/Saturation tool in Photoshop..'hmm...up one more..no, down again...I dont know, what do you think?'.
    'I think exactly what Id sent you, you see - what I thought was encapsulated in the design that I sent you.'..
    Hours and hours it went on, til finally she baulked at the 1k that was the minimum I was prepared to do the site for. What a royal pain in the ass she was..
    On other occaisions, we've charged 10 grand for a project and had no come-back..
    People dont value something they get for cheap, so raise your prices and you'll get less grief.
    And the worst worst worst thing ever to happen to a client is a meddling spouse....OI VEH!!
