i had a problem, i did this about a year ago (i just came across your site) and I made a portfolio out of all my free clients, worked for free for about a month made about 150 dollars through 3 deals, but then something happened.. something dreadful.

everyone demanded free work out of me,
and if I couldn’t do it they would move on.

there are thousands of terrible awful wannabe graphic designers out there who take an image slap some lettering on it and call it their “art” or they take a font (such as the angryblue font) and act like they just made an original logo etc. and they’re also out there willing to do it for free, clients that should be mine are now sacrificing the ability to have my professional work instead to have some piss-poor job some uneducated person created.

WOW!!! nice article. I bearly started designing like 4 months ago, like a lot of people I started on psp but switched to photoshop like 1 1/2 months ago. It was really hard because Photoshop is more confusing than psp but I didnt give up and started reading tutorials until I finally got the hang of it. I havent been designing for people because right now I’m doing it for fun, but I will try to work now. Thanks for this article it has really changed my mind on things. Your awesome Graham Phisher!!!

Does anyone ever use paint shop pro?…all i hear about is photoshop. I am very experienced in psp but i am definitely thinking about getting photoshop..how easy would you say the transition would be from going from psp to ps? and would there be a big diff in the quality of my work?
