always be up front and lay it out is my best advice.

ive done templates for years this way...
I guess the main problem I had with this guy was that he was new, and trying to rush everything. But I kept trying to explain to him that they are only templates. A coder still has to go through it and make it work with the system he has in place.

I mean, he order's galleries, and then 2 days later asks what a TGP site is .

It's just a major headache to have to deal with. Not so much that he's new, moreso that he doesn't understand what you're trying to tell him, and then yells at you when it doesn't work.

I've been designing for almost 3 years and I have had my share of know-it-all noobs, but I mean come on...do some research first, get to know the industry you're jumping into before you jump.
