ok here is what i need. someone with some TIGHT tagging skills.. not styles like unreadable shit but...
think like the MOS DEF video MS. FAT BOOTY.
think like..
http://www.artcrimes.org/
(the logo tag)think FAT TIP font.. but better.
i need like like 8 words written.
this is for some spec work i am doing (nope, i aint getting paid either) which could lead to the full site in which case, you'd be paid for writing these 8 words and maybe a couple more.
i could do these myself.. but i am tired of my writing style and honestly cant tag like i am envisioning.. (see samples)
hit me up with samples you might have online and what you'd want $$$ wise if this thing gets picked up.
i'd need these just written with chisel marker (thick thin lines maybe (see examples)) and scanned at like 150dpi. i will do the cleanup.
and i need them like tomorrow latest!

wasn't it you posting all that attitude shit the other day when you weren't happy with applicants?
And now you want want work for free?
hmmm.

yeah. it was me. and? your point.
re-read the post. like i said. i will be happy to pay when/if the design is selected. it's basicaly writing 8 words. even if i paid $25 for that.. it takes someone about a minute to write 8 words. say they write it 3 times each word.. what's that .. 3 minutes? let's say it took em 10 minutes..
if i said i'd pay them $50 an hour based on thier time.. they'd be looking at a grand total of about $5.. which would be an insult to say the least.
bottom line is.. i could do it myself but i am choosing to let other people here in on the project. if it turns out they are good graf writers.. illustrators, etc and the design direction is picked.. then i'd probably use them for illustrations on the site.
thanks tho.. i got quite a few people more then happy to get put on.
thing is.. not everyone here has clients.. or work for that matter other then stuff they are doing for themself.
i'm just passing along what little extra i have instead of turning it away.
if i said.. i have a client who wants a site design done on spec. if it's good.. they will pay.. if not.. they wont use the design or pay.
i'd venture to say there would be a few people willing to jump at the chance. those who look at it as 'free work' have that option.
those who weren't really doing anything anyway.. would probably have little to nothing to lose.
just my opinion. i'm entitled to it.. and the attitude.

It has taken me 15 years, 3 arrests, being shot at, chased by cops, drug dealers and crack heads to be able to catch juicy hand tags and you want to pay how much?

ok lets get this this straight; me gooseass, lilbabyarm and no doubt a few others would be happy to help somebody out here for free. As we have done in the past, the thing is you treat people like fools and dont respect the shit people have been through to earn their name, you want the fame but you dont know the game. You are acting like an ass and if you cant see that then there is no hope for you, sorry but I'm happy to help people I feel I can get along with but you seem to be an arsehole who thinks that by throwing around a pathetic amount of cash can get you want. This will never be the case, I'd much rather work for free with nice people than even bother to try to get along with attitude freaks like you.
Good luck in the future, you'll need it, with your attitude you'll never make real friends.

I suggest that if anyone feels , like doing it... it's only a couple of words... surely tagging up only takes a second or two... that's the whole point of it... having a little flare doesn't require a big pay off.

no fuck that, you miss the point.
You require no further explanation. Think.

Welcome to the wrold of pitching.

yeah, but professionals invest something in their pitches, they dont ask for freebies.
- unknown0
I'd bet there are many more free pitches than paid ptiches in the professional design world.

yeah for sure, but theydont ask illustrators for free work do they?
