lol, great thread, very entertaining.
I wanna chime in now. NEVER had a designer make a design that could sell whether it was a $5 an hour dude from a 3rd world country, or a $3500 design, they all either didn't do it as asked, never completed the job, or gave me a page of blithering rainbow designer diarrhea that didn't convert.
Metaman, DamageX is correct, most designs are for WMs egos, but Damage that plays an important role depending on what type of site it is. A killer flashy design might get more affiliates in the door to push a paysite for you faster than some words. So my new policy is two tours, one flashy, one better converting less design more pitch.
Here's the funny thing, even though I tell my affiliates the shitty design converts better alot refuse to stop using the flashy tour I made for my own ego.
