Honest to gods, this conversation happened today, and it may have cost me a job opportunity. The customer was super impressed with my menu design and animation, and wanted to know who we got it from. When I said I did it, their face lit up! Too bad as soon as i said GIMP, they weren’t interested anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? What do you say in similar situations?
Lol, I suppose. One should stand their grounds and be proud of what they use. And if someone has a false impression of me because of that, correct it obviously and move on. Let them know that we aren’t as superficial as having names/words being held against us; that’s extremely judgmental.
