Stell, whenever you talk about these things, you're always talking about LITERALLY 200-300 or so people in the WORLD who have that job with those companies, if even that.

NOBODY here is going to have a job like that, and if anyone does, it won't be for years and years.

Same goes for graphic design. Chances are you're just going to end up designing cereal boxes, and that's if you're lucky and good. Better chances are you will be designing flyers for mom & pop businesses, shirts for companies that distribute to a local area only, or arranging text in a magazine or newsletter that five people read. Certainly the more school you do the better off you'll be, but nothing is written in stone.

we werent talkign about members of jsp, we were talking about endurack, and how people actually DO care and WILL pay you more, if you do your OWN work.  topic kinda changes when people dont read.  And thats not really a great attitude either, endurack was a member here, and hes working in the industry, so what does that say?  Also from what hes told me, blizzard wants to be in the industry, and i think he can get there.  So saying nobody from jsp will make it, just aint true

Working in the industry doesn't mean anything is what i'm saying; you keep bringing up these companies that employ the very elite of designers, which is a bit.. optimistic.

And yeah vectoring over a picture or something doesn't amount to shit unfortunately, won't get you a job anywhere.

no offense but that kind of attitude is why you will always just be a sig maker working out of your parents basement

If you haven't noticed this isn't conceptart or cgsociety, this is a Diablo II website and the Graphic Design section is based upon mainly forum signatures. We are not serious about graphic design, we are not professionals, we will not be professionals, to 99% of us this is merely a hobby to either pass time or make forum gold.
