To print or not to print

I was asked to send a company’s logo I’d designed to a publication so they could use it in a layout.

I send them an eps file and tell them to let me know if they have trouble with it.

Client: Sorry, I can’t open the eps and the gif file gets too blurry when I make it bigger. Can I pull it from your website?

I didn’t send a gif, they can only mean the gif that’s part of my corporate signature.

Me: (somewhat suspiciously) Why don’t you send me the actual dimensions, and I’ll give you a print-ready jpg file. A gif file is not suitable for printing.

Client: I’m not sure what you mean by dimensions, but it will wind up being is 2” x 1 ½" high approx. A jpg would be great.

I send the jpg file at 2” wide, CMYK and 300dpi.

Client: I can work with this, but would you have it with a transparent background?

Me: Jpgs can’t do transparent backgrounds. Would you mind if I ask what program you’re using to lay this out?

Client: Powerpoint.

I’m a graphic designer and photographer, and I recently took on a job to make some ads for a small bakery. They requested a picture of a cake as part of the design. After some discussion I took this to mean they wanted me to create an image of a cake so I drew a basic cupcake and emailed the design. They replied saying they were happy with everything except they wanted a photo of a cake. They didn’t send any photos and didn’t reply when I requested them so I took a photo of a cupcake myself.

Client: Hi we love the design but the photo you have used isn’t of any of our cakes. 

Me: Hi, sorry about that! If you can send me a photo of one of your cakes, then I’ll use that in the design, okay? 

Client: No sorry, I won’t be able to do that

Me: Ok, well, I’m not sure how I’ll get a photo of one of your cakes then! Could someone come and take some photos of your cakes for you? 

Client: No. Can’t you come and take some?

Me: Sorry, I live quite far away, so that’s not really feasible.

Client: Ok, just look on the Internet for one.

I briefly searched for the bakery and found nothing, no website or anything. The Facebook page didn’t include any photos of the products.

Me: Sorry I couldn’t find any photos of your cakes when I looked.

Client: Why not? People put photos of them on Instagram all the time!

I had a hard time explaining why I wouldn’t be able to use a photo from someone’s Instagram.

This is from an email where a client’s outlines their idea for a CD cover design:

Client: The cover Should be a muscular skunk devil pimp like creature throwing accusations of your past crazy life but a glowing peace around the person because they are not what they use to be. I saw a good example on Deviant Art, but That’s not quite it. don’t want female with T and A so all viewers may not get offended.

Yesterday I was forwarded a design brief for a website. It was translated from Dutch to English on google translate. Here’s an excerpt: 

“When opening the site is the image that a person in a light onion heaven receives an asterisk a bright spot in existence so that one on his way, in life. The site may feel loving, softness but also a business look, I have an example of thought attached something emits light which is in the hands of a person or something that one receives”
