age doesn't reflect talent & skill.
experience yes.

If you think you suck, you suck.
If you think you're great, you still suck.
If you think you're good, still sucking.
If you feel like you're OK, and you have to break yourself just to come up with a single bit of work you feel momentarily happy with, you're on the right path. Keep walking.

What is with the spelling and grammar around here???
Anyway, age doesn't really matter. There are so many talented people who are quite young. I guess I'm not making you feel any better. So....just take your time, and get to know as many programs as you can, or whichever one you enjoy the most / is needed. It takes time. Some people just catch on quickly...some just can't design. At least not for a while. School helps, as does a curiosity for knowledge and learning.
I'm sure if you had more confidence your work would seem better.
I can be pretty hard on myself but then I realize that I'm quite young and most people don't even get really 'good' until later. It helps to read about designers, other people, etc.
A lot of my favourite musicians didn't even pick up their first guitars/instruments until their early 20's, which always inspires me.

I think a better question is how did you get started.
a lot of the younger designers i know that are really good now went to private art high schools and got an early start.
I went to one and watched kids grow up all over the states that went to sister schools of mine that have turned out to be fantastic.

(Aug 30 05, 11:44)This actually desribes be to a tee. I think that's why I think I should be better then I am. But thanks everyone for the advice/encouragement. I cried a happy tear....not really, but still thanks.

So, Jaline, you're older than 18, right? That's good enough for the Tickster...
