Are majority of the independent designers on here mentally retarded? - GoFuckYourself.com

JakeR · 07-13-2007, 01:51 PM

this is in reference to my thread on hiring a designer or company for 120 gallery templates
https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/750824-designers-120-fhg-templates.html

Now, I am pretty sure I laid out everything I needed in my post, as in what I need, quantity, link to portfolio's etc. Of course I can't expect a quote with just that information and more information will be required which is fine, and that is why I requested a "ballpark" estimate.

Now I was emailed by a couple design companies, they laid it all out for me, had some questions for me as well, acted professional etc - added them to the list of people to consider

I was emailed by a couple independents that acted professional as well and they laid out all the answers I had requested. - added them to the list of people to consider

And then.. I get flooded (atleast 15 mails) by fucking retards with super cool answers like the following:

-Hey Man I can HOOK YOU UP on your galleries, hit me up on ICQ
-I will do it for 15$ each, hit me up if you want to get it going
-I tried gettin u on icq, no answer, i will do them all for 11$ each (gmail email account)

all of them added to the "retard" list

Now, why would anyone ever want to contact you back if you don't even supply a link to a portfolio or a sample or anything by that means, let alone not answer a few of the questions I had in my post.

It may be porn, but it is still a business. Conduct yourselves like businessmen /women and you will find your self earning more, landing bigger clients/contracts instead of fighting for the 2am odd-job gfy scraps.

thats the end of my rant
i feel much better now
carry on!

There are retards in every aspect of every business, but we designers have more than our fair share, thats for sure.

Good luck with your project.
