    bloody hell vespa. You had to lower the tone with a design related thread...

    What I think... is that I agree with you, but however. What's wrong with "smugness"? That we know, that we know more than the proles about design? 90% of it is on a need to know basis. 90% of design is invisible.... people who read the paper dont care about the fonts' leading or tracking, yet those elements make it work and if some filthy prole wanted to fuck with that then surely we can and should call rank and put them in their place aye? Of course we dont need to get "smug" about it, but it's our job to know more than they do.

    Brain Surgeons know more about brains than I do and I'm quite happy to let them be smug about it because they deserve to be.
