Top 10 signs you are a Design Snob

10) You find yourself sneering at other people's incorrect use of hyphens and asterisks.

9) You develop a fondness for certain typefaces/fonts. (However, Times will always be your first love, even if you've outgrown it.)

8) Centered headlines. Ech! Are you kidding me?!

7) A beautiful use of white space can bring tears to your eyes.

6) The look of 10 pt. or thicker lines makes you physically ill.

5) A photo without a bevel and emboss effect? Or even cropped? Come on, what are we living in the stone ages or something?

4) When you refer to Robin Williams, your hero, you are soooo not talking about the actor from "Mork and Mindy."

3) You wondered why you were being forced to take design classes in college — Until you realized you were addicted to Pagemaker and spending hours designing one element of a single flyer.

2) Microsoft Publisher? Yeah, it's cute and inexpensive, but why drive a Corolla when you can be behind the wheel of a Mercedes?

1) Design something on Word? I might as well get out a box of Crayons and some colored paper.
