| Thank you so much Jonny, that put things into perspective for me and made me kind of rethink the idea of doing everything rather than focusing on a couple aspects and becoming good at them.
I think my biggest problem right now personally is that I lack the ability to be spontaneous, creative or imaginitive. I think my graphic design ability is truly lacking in terms of originality and that certain "spark" that makes people go "wow" when they go to a site. I have no problem looking at a picture, a drawing etc. and doing in photoshop but when someone says "I want something classy, professional etc. with a modern look" I am stumped right there and constantly struggle to get a design that I like and that I believe the client will like. Are there any resources or methods you use to kind of, I dont know, figure out what direction you want to go? I equate my inability to a writer that cant start his paper, but once he gets going hes gold. |
