Yet another reason why I’ve read and highly respected Jeffrey’s opinion since the late 90s, and will continue to do so indefinitely. Also a good quote to keep in mind when you’re pitching to a business who keep balking that your services are “more than a few hundred bucks” and keep mentioning “Bob’s nephew… he has Photoshop, doesn’t he?”
