its not a well paid industry, and to be honest - there are far too many pro's about willing to take poor money because its the only thing they are trained to do.

pm me if you wanna ask questions or seek advice
This is it. For some unknown reason I thought there was money to be made, but since looking at jobs out there I've noticed demanding roles for little pay packages.

I may PM you for further questions, thank you.

21Quest; thank you. It's sort of good to be back. I hope your well old boy?
Ha ha, alot of kids in college also think this way. More fool them when they get out into the real world and discover they're best prospect is designing letterheads in KallKwik!

In my opinion standards have dropped with pay - it was a good career in the late 80's/nineties when, heaven forbid, you actually had to be able to use a pencil, be artisticly creative and even typset by hand.

Vast influx of people taking it as a career choice = now it seems you just need to be able to use a computer and don't even have to know what a 2B pencil is!

Which is a pity as it means the really talented people out there get lumped in with the numptys.

If you have talent, try to get into illustration. Still crap pay, but at least your generally working with more likeminded people who appreciate your actual skills.
