  1. PG Chuck

    Ah yes… how many times have I dreamed about having a flying unicorn as a client.

  2. PG Mastergreed

    What a perfect way to achieve Lucid Dream ;)

  3. PG Yury Akulin

    Well, this is not a fairytale. I’ve got about 20% of my logos approved by clients without any changes. And right now I am working on a project that was paid 100% upfront, though I was asking only for 30% deposit :)

  4. PG Dor Dan

    Ha! That’s every freelancer’s fantasy… just kidding :)
    Good one, can definitely understand what you mean.

  5. PG emrah

    :) what a sweet dream…

  6. PG Alex Fraiser

    It’s rare that we don’t have to make changes…I know I did with a few clients, asked for 2 revisions which really isn’t awful.

  7. PG gason

    ahahahah
    great
    probably the best so far =)

  8. PG Melek

    HA! “and we pay early”….Love it!

  9. PG DoZ

    This happened to me just once, but then the client didn’t pay!
    :(
    sad

  10. PG Jason

    I’ve had this happen…and wouldn’t you know it…they thought of some changes right after proofs were printed and we were on a tight press schedule. :) Of course.

  11. PG Imani Lateef

    Ha!! LOL. This is hilarious

  12. PG Gabriel

    Love the freelancer first face!

  13. PG Jessica

    This is too funny!

  14. No, it is reality… It goes to print… And mid print… The phone rings… Stop the press!

  15. PG Kate

    LOL is all I can say.

  16. PG Janet Martin Copywriter

    That flying unicorn holding a piece of paper would be a great logo for a writer. I would like it in more of a sky blue though. Thanks.

  17. PG Laura

    LOL! Charlie! Come with us, Charlie! We’re going to Candy Mountain!

  18. PG Benek

    haha! this one’s brilliant!

  19. PG Philip

    The sad part is that these are my everyday dreams!

  20. PG Justin - YGG

    Best one yea. Really got a laugh out of this one.

  21. PG Justin

    LOL. Spot on, as usual. The last frame adds a little kicker. Keep em coming!

  22. PG N.C. Winters

    @Laura-

    I just have to say, so great that someone else out there shares my love of Charlie the Unicorn enough to reference him in a comment. Kudos!

    “We’re on a bridge, Charlie!”

  23. PG Banago

    LOL! This design is great!

  24. PG Laura

    @ N.C – It’s too disturbing not to love! Watch your kidneys ;o)

  25. PG James Lytle

    has anyone seen the ‘Candy Mountain’ cartoon… anyway, if you think that’s funny this seems even funnier! great cartoon!

  26. PG garaj kapısı

    :) ) i want it, i want it

  27. PG Calvin Froedge

    ah i wish!

  28. PG Liz

    Ah… the client of my dreams…

    On a note: another annoying thing about working on an office, is that they give you any computer they have… runs so slow. Then they ask you to do this really artistic graphic and you can barely run photoshop. Making it crash every 2 minutes!!! ARGH!!!

    (yes, I’m having that problem right now…)

  29. PG Takumi86

    lol that was actually nearly hit the spot, but sometimes if you get lucky, you wont need to modify your portfolio

  30. PG blue2x

    This happened to me once, just a very small modification from an existing design, hehe and it finished it in only a few minutes, client paid in full =)

  31. PG Val

    LOL!!! so funny, so true… =)

  32. PG TODO POR 2 CLICKS!

    HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA..

    So true, man!!! XD
