hey guys, I've been looking at y'all websites and I must say that very often I'm pretty impressed by your work.
There's alot of creative person here!
personally I work full-time and I don't have much time to create things for myself, since I started to come here regularly..I kinda regret it.
you guys design 24/7 or you are born with the talent at the tip of your fingers?

so you work outside of the design realm?

No I work as a designer but unfortunatly it's a very *uncreative* place... insurance companie..woohoo
I live in a relatively small city with many designers...where do you work to do REAL design things? here....you get one thing once in a blue moon

no way :p
luckily I'm still at school so I can do what I want.
at work, I complain alot, but actually it's a good exercise, you know to have picky clients...
insurance cie = very narrow minds

I am always working™
Actually I tend to go in spurts, I'll work lots on personal or freelance work every night for a month or so, then take a break for a couple weeks. So I can veg out at night or spin records. Also by taking the break, it gives me a sense of closure with the project or phase I've just completed..

dobs... I'm just givin' Jev shit - I suppose that my way of picking him up while he's down. He knows there's nothing but love there (and some malicious love... not the man-raping type - except on saturdays).
