The sad thing is it IS true... I clicked a link I found advertising a "portrait photographer" the other day, went through to her website which was horrific, no worries.. I'll check out her images, maybe web stuff isn't her strong point... the images were even worse! really awful stuff.. and high prices.. You know, sometimes it's really hard to remain objective when helping people out that just don't get it. Sometimes you just want to say "actually, your photos are really horrible, you should perhaps get some training / help before you offer services"

Sometimes, thats the only way.
Even then, the majority will shrug it off as someone being afraid of competition...

I like how at the end it says "If you can click, you can make movies." Sounds like the issue with photography these days.
