    im planning on getting into web and graphic design, but browsing the forums im having second thoughts. as soon as a job offer is posted at least 5 people jump on it, and the template market is flooded unprofessional designs. I believe i am a good artist and i will succeed, how many of you think the market will improve/ stay the same/or get worse?

    It honestly all depends. What I like to do is build up a portfolio/client base that keep coming to me. Then when they are satisfied I ask them to suggest me to friends and what not, then it all is downhill for me.

    The market is huge for quality designs. If you are a quality designer, people will pay attention to your work. At least, most people will...

    theres always a market for custom well done jobs
    the problem is, how many people are looking for that?
    less and less everyday.

    Do you want to be happy, or do you want to right?
