“How’d that thing at the weekend go?”
The hero laughs with visible discomfort. “Ah, pretty good. Wasn’t too bad.”
The other hero turns to look at him incredulously. “Wasn’t too bad? I thought your kids had some big parts in that play or something.”
“Oh, yeah, they did. You know how kids are, though. Acting clearly doesn’t run in the family.”
The last the other hero had heard, the hero was ecstatic to be going to this play. Now, he’s folding his clothes and shoving them into his locker like the weekend wasn’t anything special.
“You feeling alright?” the other hero asks shortly.
“Yeah, why?”
“I don’t know.” The other hero leans against their locker as the hero fiddles with the code on his. “I was expecting you to be more… excited. Has something happened?”
“No, nothing.”
“You can tell me.”
“I don’t have anything to tell you.” The hero gives up and slams the door on his locker. It doesn’t shut. “It was a nice weekend. The kids did their play and it was as entertaining as it was a bunch of eight year olds misremembering all their lines. That’s it.”
The other hero watches him as he turns back to the bench, sifting through his bag. They consider pushing it, but they don’t get the chance before the locker room door gets flung open.
“Sorry I’m late!” calls the voice in the doorway. “Traffic’s a nightmare. Anyways, I know you’re dying to hear how the kids did—god, they’re stars. I took a video, look—”
The hero cuts himself off when he finally meets the eye of… the hero, elbow deep in his bag with his locker swinging open behind him.
“Oh,” the hero says faintly from the doorway. “You’re me.”
The other hero rounds on the hero inside the locker room. “Who are you?”
The hero—although maybe not now—stares at them like he’s shocked before nodding to the hero in the doorway. “He’s the imposter.”
“He is actually trying to tell us about his kids,” the other hero says flatly. “I’m more inclined to believe he’s real.”
The hero glances between the hero in the doorway and the other hero next to him for a long second. “Look, I didn’t think I’d have to research his weekend plans, okay?”
That’s as good as a confession to the other hero. He’s already reaching for the handcuffs in his pocket—thank god he thought to take them out. “Okay. Well, you have the right to remain—”
He’s barely started before the hero bolts, the bag thrown mercilessly to the floor. The hero—the real hero—moves after him, the other hero close behind as their fake hero throws himself into the corner. He stumbles back against the wall, trapped.
“There’s no need to run,” the other hero drawls.
“I’m not running,” the fake hero say. He smiles, his back to the tile, like this was all part of the plan. “You can’t run through walls.”
And with that he leans back, the wall swallows him, and he disappears.
“He has my powers, too!” the hero cries, pointing rather uselessly at the now empty corner. “That’s not fair!”
The hero launches after him, straight through the wall. The other hero, cursed with the power of super strength, is left to take the long way round.
By the time the other hero gets there the hero already has the imposter in a tight hold. “What an idiot,” the hero says severely. “Let’s get him into a cell, huh? Whoever he is.”
“Almost had you, didn’t I?” the imposter says with a bright laugh. The other hero doesn’t like it. “Imagine what a league of us could do. Who would you trust? Who’s real? Who’s fake?”
“Oh, shut up,” the hero snaps.
“Stay on your toes. I’m far from the only one,” the imposter continues. His eyes bore straight through the other hero when he says, “Next time, it might be you.”

Clients Are Demanding More Web Design Freedom
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/clients-are-demanding-more-web-design-freedom/
Clients Are Demanding More Web Design Freedom
Web designers love to client-proof their creations. It’s all about preventing a rogue client from mucking up a layout or feature. After all, everyone’s happy when things look good.
The practice keeps those technical support requests to a minimum. Or at least it did.
These days, it seems like clients are eager to experiment with design. The more we lock down features, the more frustrated they get. It’s been a growing trend in my freelance business.
I often receive design queries from clients. They want to know how to create specific layouts. Or how to embed video or other third-party content.
It marks a change from how things used to be. So, why are clients suddenly interested in doing it themselves? I have a few theories! I also have thoughts on what we can do to meet this need.
There’s a Higher Standard for Web Design
Today’s clients are avid web consumers. Some have grown up alongside the internet. Therefore, they possess a different set of sensibilities.
The web used to be a novelty. The clients I served 10+ years ago weren’t as attuned to user experience (UX). If anything, they asked for features that went against the grain in this area.
Sure, I still get requests for such features. But they have decreased significantly.
I more often hear from people who want to replicate a specific look. They want a page layout similar to a big brand or competitor.
True, they may want these results on a much smaller budget. But they have an idea of how a website should look and work. And it’s miles away from the clunky designs of yesteryear.
Clients are surrounded by better design. And they want the same for themselves.
No-Code Tools Are Promising a Better Experience
We’ve witnessed an influx of browser-based design tools in recent years. Proprietary systems like Wix market themselves as do-it-all solutions. Even open-source apps like WordPress have gotten into the game with its Site and Block Editors.
The message is that anyone can build a website. Sure, the reality may be blurred (and there’s no mention of quality). But these tools have raised the bar of expectation.
For some website owners, having a site is no longer enough. They also want to create content and personalize the look. Empowered clients, yay!
However, this is a less-than-ideal situation for web designers. We want our clients to accomplish great things with their sites. But there’s a price to all of this newfound freedom.
These tools make building a custom layout easier. But things can get out of hand rather quickly.
I’ve seen this with the WordPress Block Editor. There’s a lot to love about it. However, it doesn’t guarantee success. Those unfamiliar with design can paint themselves into a corner.
For example, building layouts that are hard to maintain. Or accidentally dragging a block into the wrong space. All good for our job security. Not so much for our mental health.
Yes, anyone can build with a no-code tool. But it still takes careful thought and foresight to do it well. That’s why locking things down is still so attractive.
What Should Web Designers Do?
We want to keep our clients happy. Plus, there’s only so much lecturing we can do. So, how can we provide the flexibility clients want while also safeguarding their site?
There are a few ideas that come to mind:
Build with Flexibility in Mind
I’m a very purpose-driven designer. I like to build features that match a client’s stated needs. But sometimes, that leads to inflexibility.
A client will attempt to use a feature in a way that I didn’t intend. The result is often a frustration for both parties.
The lesson here is to build with flexibility in mind. Consider other ways a client may use a feature. Then, provide options for making it work.
Custom WordPress blocks are a good example. Instead of creating a block with a singular layout option, go the extra mile. Add column and row layouts. Allow for different types of content to be input.
These little steps can mitigate issues down the road. Clients won’t have to think outside the box – they’ll already have everything they need.
Invest in Client Education
Design tools are more powerful than ever. That’s a good thing. However, a well-intentioned client could use them to cause havoc.
When people know better, they do better. Thus, education can be just as powerful.
Sit down with clients and teach them the basics. Provide documentation that spells out best practices and things to avoid.
Granted, not everyone has time to do this. In that case, you might employ a third-party resource to help. Curate a list of videos and tutorials to put clients on the right path.
Again, prevention is the best medicine here.
Lock Down What You Can
None of this means we should stop locking things down. A client-proof website is still a noble goal. We might have to be more selective, though.
Tools like the WordPress Block Editor include a locking feature. You can use it to prevent those unintended consequences. Adding block patterns could also satisfy the need to create custom layouts.
You might also seek to limit user permissions. If there’s an area that a client should never touch – don’t give them easy access.
Think about the site’s most mission-critical aspects and act accordingly.
Web Designers Need to Meet Clients Where They Are
Today’s web design clients want to do more with their sites. Sure, they want us to build them something beautiful and functional. But they also want the ability to do it themselves.
There’s no going back on this. The cat’s already out of the bag. Thus, we need to adjust to match these expectations.
We can achieve this through a bit of foresight. Anticipate how clients will interact with their website. Build features that can withstand whatever they throw at it.
We’ll still make mistakes. Plus, some clients will be prone to mishaps. However, these experiences are learning opportunities. Take them and keep evolving. After all, our clients aren’t slowing down.

The agency is a place of horror, in the villain’s opinion—pristine white walls, blaring overhead lights, perfectly symmetrical tiled flooring. The place is, quite frankly, a minimalist nightmare.
So it’s a shame that the villain has to sit here, bored out of their mind, in the place they hate the most, with the person they hate the most.
“Oh, no, turn back the way you were facing.” The hero gestures slightly behind them with the tip of their pencil. A clipboard sits in their lap, well-loved and coated in pen marks. “The angle’s off.”
“I don’t know why you couldn’t just take a two second photo like everyone else,” the villain mutters with a scowl, adjusting uncomfortably in their cuffs, and the hero laughs like they’re joking.
“Because crime in the city is at an all-time-low and I’m bored.” The hero points a bit more violently with their pencil. “Now turn.”
They’re not allowed any goddamn dignity in this place, so they admit defeat and shift over slightly. The hero nods approvingly when they do, finally turning their gaze back down to paper in their hand, and the pair fall into silence. 
“You know I’m gonna be busting out, right?” the villain says after a moment. The quiet was nice until they figured out that the weird screeching noise downstairs was human voices. “I don’t really see the point in me being here.”
The hero hums in lazy acknowledgement. “I know, but catching you gives me something to do.” The pencil scratches down the page in waves, their eyes still resting on their masterpiece. “And you make for a good muse.”
Thank god their drawing is so interesting, or the hero would see the light blush staining the villain’s face. “I know I do,” they say in a vain attempt to save their quickly plummeting dignity. “I’m hot shit, everyone knows that.”
“Yeah, you’re pretty conventionally attractive. Makes for some good lines in a study.”
Why did they have to phrase it like that? “You can admit I’m hot, it’s okay. Everyone else does.”
“Everyone else lets visual aesthetic blind them to their sense of morality, but I don’t.” The hero’s gaze finally flits back up to them, the ghost of a smirk on their face. “You’re conventionally attractive. Take it or leave it.”
The villain scowls. “I’m going to pretend that’s a compliment.”
“It is in heroic terms.” The hero turns their clipboard around to show the criminal their drawing. “What do you think? Looks like you, right?”
The hero’s a damn good artist. It’s amazing. “It’s shit.”
Their answer only gets another laugh as the clipboard gets discarded on the desk. The hero gets to their feet with a stretch, motioning for the villain to do the same. “Let's get you to your cell so I can go on my lunch.”
The villain’s henchmen are probably nearby. A few minutes in a cell are nothing. “I hope your lunch tastes like dirt.”
The cell is just as grim as the villain remembers. The hero shoves them inside mercilessly, clunking the door shut behind them.
“Looking forward to chasing you down on your way out,” the hero says innocently. They glance down at their watch as it beeps rhythmically at them. “And for the record, I do think you’re hot.”
The villain makes a face somewhere between disbelief and flattered. “I thought you said I—”
“I’m on my lunch break.” They hold their watch up, reading exactly 13:00. “I can say what I want when I’m not on company time.”
“You follow the stupidest sets of rules like a dog,” the villain spits as the hero turns on their heel. “You have to admit you’re a little pathetic.”
“Your guys don’t usually take long to get here, right?” They’re already at the door, loitering on the threshold. “I’ll see you in, what, half an hour?”
“Fuck you.”
The hero laughs again. “You wish. Take the drawing on your way out, yeah?”
The villain very much intends to. They deserve it for the time out of their day, at least.
