//woah is me - begin
I haven't had one folio piece in about 2 years now...
... I tried taking a job earlier this year in chicago - got screwed horribly (ankle-grabbing moment)...
... so i come back to phoenix... lots of work just handed to me from LA and Chicago... but all Flash production / dev work... nothing original to design... at least from these agencies...
.. but then I do get a number of small projects that need complete a.d. work... so i become slightly overwhelmed...
... I've taken on a partner for some of this stuff - someone to help balance the biz cuz i'm losing my mind here...
... the partner can only a.d. / design... can't produce (outside of print)... so i've let him design pretty much all my sites and I've produced them... (my own fault.. i know... but i'd of failed w/out the help...)
... so again - no folio pieces for me... just co-design/a.d. sorta... but not to the point that - it's mine.
I feel like i got nothing to show for my last... well... 2 years now... nothing.
I haven't put a new piece in my folio in literally over 2 years... :(... and I make GREAT FUCKING MONEY...
... it's just all dev dev dev... because designers are a fucking dime a dozen these days... or perhaps i just 'blow' at that side of things...
... either way - it's become taxing... and I know my attitude shows it - i'm pretty fucking mean from time to time.

- the fact that designers are dime a dozen shows that what you are able to do requires a higher skill level. surely that is somewhat comforting?emukid
- somewhat comforting? and designers really are dime a dozen. sometimes more than a dozen.emukid
- it does 'bring comfort', saf... indeed - it's why i focused on flash for a while...PonyBoy
