It seems like you want to get a job as a designer, but there hasn't really been any work posted. You don't have an easily available portfolio. Without this there's not way you're ever going to land a job, entry or not, as a designer.
Join deviantart, join tumblr, join twitter. Enter contests, design more things. Once you start getting a following and some credibility as a deisger, revamp your portfolio. Then learn HTML and how to operate Flash. It's easy, really. Tutorials all over the fuckin place. Create a simple Flash website (that you design, obvi) that showcases your work and has contact information. Also send mcdonalds your resume and make enough cash to pay for web development classes. You're going to need it. Even if you don't want to do web content, you're going to need it. Once you land a job as an entry level designer (or office bitch, if you have to) use your newly developed web skills to show off your designing talent. Once get good enough with your designing ability you can become art director, project manager, etc etc. There are tons of ways to make money designing, stop being lazy and expecting jobs to fall out of the sky. Yes you're submitting resumes, but honestly who reads that shit. I havn't seen any of your work yet, so its hard to know what you can do however I'm assuming you can create nice looking things. (CD covers, posters, business cards, web templates (see that shit comes in handy), wallpapers, vector images, 3d renders, fonts, etc, etc) Websites to join / become active on deviantart.com -- Hugh art site, prints are avalible for sale. Good place to build a following. Twitter.com -- Yes its a social networking. How do you know people in businesses? become socially connected. Stumblr.com -- Similar to twitter, but more artsy fartsy. Post your shit here. Crowdspring.com -- If you're good, get paid. Threadless.com -- Put your designs on T-shirts. Get paid. If this doesn't help you in some way, then obviously you're a helpless lazy jackfuck. Have fun, and post some work.

Well you're bitching about not having a job as a designer. Then you proceed to demand that we provide explicit instructions on how to land you a job as a deisgner. The only piece of work you posted honestly has no relevance to a "graphic designer", even though the term is broadly used. When people actually try to give you advice on how to turn things around, you tell them to fuck off.
I hope you bleed soon and get it over with. |

You're kind of making me sad here dude. At first I was really pulling for you, this idea of yours is potentially great!
But, with each subsequent response you're becoming more and more unlikeable. When you started this thread you opened yourself up for all the comments and advice, and even ridicule, that you've received. It's coming off really condescending and totally ungrateful. Personally, at this point if I had any leads for you I'd be really hesitant to share them with you based on the direction your responses have taken this thread. But I don't, so fuck me I guess. I'm not trying to be a bitch, but I just wanted to share that with you because if I'm thinking it, maybe someone else who can actually help you is reading this and feeling the same way. Again, I do think this was an awesome idea, and I'd hate for you to miss out on an opportunity to land a great gig. So good luck, and I'll be sending lots of warm land-your-dream-job thoughts your way!
