Frustrated by stupid client criticism, Irish graphic designers Mark Shanley and Paddy Treacy decided to turn their “favorite worst feedback” into posters. The guys worked together on so-called “Sharp Suits” series with a team of other ad creatives, designers, animators, directors, illustrators and more, who must’ve all appreciated a chance to let out some of their exasperation in a creative way.
The series was exhibited at The Little Green Café, Bar and Gallery in November, giving a chance to purchase an A3 poster of your choice. The guys, however, received so many orders during a 5 day exhibition, that they’ve already stopped accepting them. All the thousands of euros they claim to have raised were donated to the Temple Street Children Hospital.

Share on FacebookI love these I have had to many to count over the years. "Can I use your color scanner to scan my black and white photo in color?" Sure :)
These are CLASSIC!! I've had my design company for 15 years and I think I've heard every last one of them. LOL!
The commercial is ready so you wont need to do much work, just download it from youtube and add our logo....mmmmmm NO!

I've heard almost every single one of these. Also "We need something that represents Golf... more than a golf ball"!
I adore the playful sandwich. We must thank clients if this is the kind of out of the (lunch) box thinking they inspire. <3
Can you remove the dog's penis? Later: Can you put the penis back? (Thank heaven for layers!)

I got a great comment the other day from a client who ran an IT business. "The video is too large to email, I'll text it to you." When the text came through I responded with, "it is too low res for me to even see what is going on". To which she replied "I sent you a hi-res video, I don't know what happened to it." TRUE STORY
I was called onto the carpet of our CEO over a photograph that was printed of a fellow employee in our corporate newsletter. She had built a case against me. She claimed I had doctored the photograph and her nose was "not big!" My response "The camera doesn't lie", was not disputed by any executive in the room as all the evidence I needed was right there on her face.
Me: 'Can you send me your logo so I can add it to the billboard' Client 'Just grab the one on the site' Me, after years of explaining and pretty much over it: '...sure.'
I have a whole book of stupid comments that ive been adding to for nearly 20 years.... its called Where is my Bromalin..:),,, shows my age, Cromalin/Bromide....and also someone once asked me to send them a joypeg...amongs the million funnies
I won't need you this year. My nephew is taking graphic design and he has a Mac. I don't like all that white space. Can't we put something in there? I want just bright red letters on a bright blue background. I just want something simple, probably won't take 20 minutes. I'll wait.
These are hilarious! I love those clients who insist that you just use the image they "found" on Google ahahah
I feel so guilty and postinv it to my designer collegues with apologies
I am an editor at a tech magazine and have to work with designers regularly, especially for printed copies. I just wonder If I sound so snobbish and stupid to them as these posters imply XDD Oh my, I just feel immense admiration towards the designers, they have to endure the worst from clients, editors and the lot.
