gd slavery is bullshit you see on craigslist all the time…or my fave when they want shit for free in exchange for shittier stuff. niggas wanna be paid for starin at adobe products for hours.
my fave shit is sumtin ive seen alot lately for people who wanna do comics stuff. i show them my portfolio for coloring…their all hyped thinkin its bomb and wanna work wit me. then they say aight i gotta finish this script/work on some more pages but ill hit you up later. 2 months go by…i give an email…“oh yeah we’re gonna work almost done…family probs” 4 months “oh yeah man its happening” niggga i know it aignt happenin…just be a man and say so.
sadly this is super true. i had this exact same prob…but unfortunately you cant be upfront like a tattoo artist. they can have 1 price for the whole shebang. being a graphic designer can entail so many different things.
-web design
-vector art
-art design in general this is usually a different catagory than gd but alot of us do both. i know i do.
-some are the webmaster of the website
then their are guys lookin for people to work in a specific section of graphic design…may want sumtin in flash, or a specific piece of software. we cant do a flat rate, we can do packages but that can limit what you can offer as well and may scare people away into thinking you cant do what they want, but a flat rate is almost impossible cause every job is unique and different.
I’ve always planned to get into the field. Just kinda flip-flopped between that, acting, animation, and finance in my younger years. Wasted lots of time, but I’m back on the GD train, sometimes switching lines to get on the VA train for a bit.
Being that starving artist is not a good look, though…
Jeff Goldblum also knocked me down, ten years ago. True story. Then he stuttered an apology.
All my ID was lost in the flames. So carding me essentially means I dont get it because I have to wait a fucking LONG time to replace my photo ID (gotta start with the small shit first, like SIN card, birth certificate, etc). So yeah, this wasn’t a 5 second thing to do. This was me not getting it at all. And I was in a bad mood. I never said what I did was right, only that I did it.
yes, but i didn’t go for ID right away, cuz I was still going through what made it and didnt make it. I kinda just tossed whatever wasn’t ash into a box when I left that place. And I can’t apply for any form of photo ID until I have the basic ID back, and that shits a bitch to get back (so you can’t assume somebody elses identity). Losing ALL your ID at once is one hell of a fucking inconvenience.
Don’t you dare toy with my emotions Damned. You hear me?? Or i’ll find you and i’ll…i’ll…i’ll shake your hand after riding public transportation all day. Yeahhhhhhh, I know you’re quivering in fear at the thought of that. I mean business.
I hate how that “Fast and Furious” debacle in the news (the result of the us apparently getting real life “Three Stooges”-caliber goofs in positions of power lately) keeps reminding me of that silly, never-ending movie series…a series of films that have has absolutely no major selling point for me. I don’t even recall any significant hot pieces of ass being in there… perhaps Jordana Brewster, but beyond that…nothing. The movie is so unappealing to me that it is annoying just hearing that phrase.
My relatively short time caring about anything on Facebook may finally be over. The stuff I see posted on there is positive to the point of being sickening… like if you were an alien that for some retarded reason used facebook posts to start researching what’s currently going on… you’d think everything was uplifting and happy-go-lucky chipper bullshit…like we’re all living in Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood here, where absolutely everything is a-ok, hunky dory “GOD IS GREAT!” good times…what a crock…what a crock of disgustingly false garbage. The world and “the human condition” is crap, and that’s pretty much undeniable fact. Basically, no matter what happens in the next 5 years of your life, things will just get progressively worse in ways you couldn’t imagine right now. There is only varying levels of misery to look forward to in life. Things start off great, but they always go sharply downhill. If you’re having a good time now…it only means that something terrible is on the horizon, ready to tear your life apart and make you curse the world and eventually God Himself. It would be the greatest feeling in my life to be wrong about these things.
In other news---- the latest SR3 character… Brick from Borderlands… I finally created a version that is reasonably acceptable to me… I also made a “Psychotic, 'roid-rage Papa Smurf”, but it wasn’t nearly as funny and entertaining as I imagined it would be. Next up will be “Dr. Zan” from Streets of Rage 3!
*looking thru old EGMs again, I am also reminded of forgotten gaming characters—> Alfred Chicken, Dr. Muto, the guy from Flashback, Pocky & Rocky, Toejam & Earl, Polterguy, Karnov, Rocky Rodent… so many characters out there that will probably never be used or even thought of again.
