Any of you run your own business and/or make money outside of the standard 9 to 5 job? Just curious... been contemplating how I could do something like that for years now (recently more than ever). I was thinking bookshop or making great art or something.

I could never do a 9-5 job. Self-employment all the way. :icon14:

The design of that site is really unprofessional, and you offer website design?

This is quite helpful putting my site threw the ringer.

I actually had one of my sites validated threw that service and it came out sqeaky clean.

I really do need to redo my site.

It's kind of like putting a new program threw a beta test. This site hasn't been up that long, I was bored one day and I changed my site.

It appears I better get bored again and redo it.

If anyone here wants a project to do then you may have a crack at it.

What do you mean make it? Redesign the website? I could possibly do it but I would require pay.

Yes I do actually, I got a call from a large company that saw my webbie and they want me to some some work for them. (not web design obviously, but some drawings)

Ok, how much?

Oh I see, I think you should get a professinal and have the site redesigned. Then you can also do some advertisement on google ads or something.

I've only done personal sites for myself, I'm not really the best person for what your looking for. I suggest you get a pro if you want to make it look good. I think the normal is $500-$1000 for a full site redesign.

Ok will do, if I had actually had someone ask me to do a site for them I would call on someone else to do it. I have a few ppl in mind for that. Always looking for more talent.

edit: Like your site btw. it looks really nice. :)

denzii, your job isn't really what you would call "an inspiration" to me... I already do drafting full-time. :( Perhaps if I was doing it myself, on my own kinda thing... it would be different.

well do it on your own, I do.

denzii: Isn't it a pain trying to figure out everyone's different standards for every single project? If you work somewhere doing drafting... it's always the same.
