    Thanks Angst. They've already referred me to some more potential clients. A lot of the industry is based on customer relationship. I'm trying to help the company understand exactly why I'm doing everything I'm doing and why they should do everything, whereas they say their last web designer just gave them the code and they had no clue what to do with it. If they have a good experience, they will refer you to others and you will be able to make even more money.

    Only thing I know of that may only use Photoshop are T-shirt designers. My friend bagged a job at a T-shirt factory (they also design banners, etc.) but its generally minimum wage and very limited hours.

    Also graphic design is not just editing pictures. Before you try doing anything I think you should starting taking classes to see what REAL graphic design is. I'm majoring in Graphic Design right now and I haven't used a computer in class yet so it's probably not what you're expecting it to be.

    Real graphic design is mainly doing advertisements for companies. You will have to use pencils and paper before you do anything in Photoshop.</span>
