Redesigning Life
Life's been sucking a bit lately. I've had about 4-5 job interviews now, no such luck with getting a job. Been struggling to just keep sane, helping out at the shop.
I did manage to get some work of sorts, mostly doing some website design work for a customer of the shop. So far, I think the results are good. Check it out yo:

I have 3rd website ready to post, but i have to work on redoing all the links, so i'm holding off. I also have a 4th site to work on, for the customer that actually asked for help (the other 3 are for a client of his).
So since I've been doing this and enjoying it, I've basically have decided to start possibly doing design work. Sure, its not steady. But its something that I enjoy and can lead to meeting some interesting people.
Starting Monday, I'm gonna start posting ads online and such, as well as designing a basic website for me and the shop here. Hopefully I can get some more people in. I haven't made a whole lot from the work, enough to pay rent, but not enough to actually start paying debt back to peoples.
I do need your guys' help. HALP ME JEEBUS! I'm gonna post on Monday my starting prices and such. Pimp me out yo! Pass me around to your friends! Anyone!
Basically my skills are basic, but I typically can find solutions. I only specialize in CSS and XHTML; PHP and WordPress and some of the fancier stuff is a bit beyond me. I will try, once I get a bit more established and more steady flow of customers to take classes online for it and such.
And that's about it for me.
