    i can remember wanting to do the same thing, but glad i waited. perhaps he can make it- time will tell.

    sadly, his portfolio reflects some decent ideas with less stellar execution. it's mostly a buffet style group of designs, with no clear direction or style.

    i don't think that the motivation and desire is the problem, but he's wanting to invest quite a bit of borrowed money into it.

    he's got the theory of "build it and they will come" - and he's quite quick to critique all the other studios around down into the ground. we're not a huge city, so keeping in good rapport with the other firms is a key, as i've found we all end up working with each other at some point.

    he's just emailed me again asking how many pixels wide a business card should be and if anyone in town can print them within the next few hours.

    • btw, these cards are for him, he's not already drummed up business.bjladams
