Why?
I have so much stuff going on at the moment that I'm not keeping up with my full time designer.
While I do have a bunch of stuff for him to do, I'm not likely to be able to write up the specs fast enough to keep him busy throughout December.
What do I need?
If you have/can provide something
COMPLETELY written up with all the info/links etc that he would need from start to finish, then this is a good opportunity for you.
When I say completely, I mean that in one email there is everything he needs to know, including links to source materials, copy, links to inspirations if appropriate, link locations, etc etc. The easier to understand and more well laid out the better. In essence I need to be able to forward it to him and not put any more work into it to get good results.
What can he do for me?
He isn't a flash artist, although he is very talented. He works especially well when you can give him inspirational examples and tell him what you like about them and/or specific detailed instructions.
Banners, Tours, Galleries, Logos, Wallpapers
(very good on wallpapers) adult/mainstream - I have had good results with all with him. He is much better at design than CSS (css usually takes him an extra day)
How do I get in on this?
If you want some design to take advantage of the extra time in his schedule then email me gfy at jeffrandom.com with the subject line of 'using your designer' (so my filter will pick it up).
Who/What will I choose?
That depends on how many responses I get. In general I will choose whoever/whatever project(s) that are written up correctly and that I feel like choosing.
I know it's arbitrary but as I am just giving away his services -
C'est La Vie
Things to mention in your email that may help me choose you.
- Do I know you? Do I like you?
- Do you want to pay for this? If so how much?
- Do you want to offer me a favor or trade? (Hard Links don't suck)
As part of being too busy to keep him supplied with writeups for projects - I will probably be too busy to check this thread a lot especially tonight.
However, if you do email me please post in the thread to let me know you sent it so that I can make sure I don't miss anyone.
Ideally I'm able to help out a few good people with their projects, and maybe even get some direct benefits.
