You might want to try this one:

"Steinprentari"

Interesting concept the Icelandic to English translation come out "Lithographer"
Good Luck and always remember: ?Share Your Knowledge?

LoL this translation is way off, directly translated "steinprentari would translate, StonePrinter"
Stein = stone, Prentari = printer

OK ROFLMAO, obviously I don't understand your language that well. I think the people that create these web sites should be reprimanded as well. I agree with jim_t though, our lot is very susceptible to being stoned most of the time 8)

But the word "Lithographer" did arise from the method of "etching" images on "stone" plates and pressing them against paper to create an image, so don't knock the interpretation to much. I still call myself a "Lithographer" even though I work on a computer to do my page-layout and photo manipulation

Well damn, if we're picking titles, I want to simply be known as

The Exterminator

I won't explain it clients, sales slime or anyone else - let them attach their own special meaning to it. :twisted:



Just a little over-the-top maybe?

One of our clients (a designer) has business cards that list his title as simply "Accomplice." I love it!

If I could get away with it I'd put my real title "Head Mushroom" on my cards, I think we all know why :x
