Before you have launched the site they designed for you, how do you feel about that?

I can think of a few instances where this has happened over the past few months and personally, if i were the site owner, id be pissed.

Not only does it take away from any potential launch plans you may have for the newly designed site, it also gives your competitors a chance to get their own site designed and launched before yours.

So, how do you feel when a designer places your site in their portfolio before you have actually launched the site?

Also, im starting to see some designers 'blogging' about what they are currently working on, do you think this is something that should be done?

Regards,
