What do you think about this?

Ok, i seen so much of this stuff before. Create free banners, get free designs done, and alot of this stuff. But it puts graphic and web designers out of jobs for this. How will they pay there bills if there is designing. Do you think they should stop this or keep it the way it is or Have only Non-profit sites get free designs and stuff?

Well the reason people give away free designs is to create a portfolio. Most clients want to see a portfolio before purchasing a custom design, so doing a few free designs is an easy way to get that portfolio. Personally I don't think it is a problem, as it has been happening for the past several years, and there are still tons of great designers.

if you want a free design, then youll get a crap template made in a hour. If you want to pay for a design, then you get a great template, with alot of hours put into it.
