    Guess other people aside from me like to work with Photoshop just out of pure enjoyment.

    I`m currentlu not doing enything for profit, but I don`T say no if someone requests something and tells me I`ll get a buck for it ;)
    I`m more of a wallpaper gal though, and many have asked me if I make them for monney. I just say, well if they want to give me a litte donation for my hard work then go ahead. :)

    *My wallpapers are on my DeviantArt account* ;)

    I'll do them for pure enjoyment. It's ended up being something I like, so I'm always trying to improve my skills. Besides, if they like what I've done, I get a great feeling. That's priceless to me.

    I dont think anyone pays real $$ for a small sig to use on a forum. And creds are worthless. I make larger pieces.

    who in there right mind would pay someone to make a sig for them? Ur gonna use the sig for like 2 weeks or so, and then scrap it and then get a new one. Itd be the dumbest thing in the world to pay someone to make a sig for you, when u can just go to any other graphics community and get it done for free.

    Mostly for enjoyment. If people want to send creds, I leave it up to them. I'm not going to nag anybody for anything. It's fun making w/e and as has been said b4, it's good practice.
