I don't know about others, I've a Marketing degree with specialization in Electronic Marketing. I think it proves on my design's conversions. However, when designing a site, no matter what your education dictates, you've to stick with what the client wants, no matter how crazy it sounds. I always mention the "correct" (being this a very discussable concept) option, but at the end, is what the client wants.

Wow. Maybe you'd call Young & Rubicam (I worked there a life ago), Leo Burnett, Ogilvy & Mather and the likes and tell them to stop working for other people otherwise they suck

as for the fist post, I agree #3 applies to me sometimes, but that's because of my English, and I put that very clear everytime I work with a new client. None of the other applies. But I agree, those points are pretty common although I'd add BLUE to #9, which is the most commonly used color by most designers (Including JR's sites, the current and the previous one )
