I did tell my friend if she wanted to help me with it I would pay her a percentage of it... she told me she was worried because she didn't have any passions, I asked her what she does on a daily basis, she said browse the internet LOL

I've even done work fr free for those same teens, i'm cool with that, they want their OC drawn again, it takes 5 mins, no sweat, but doing company logos for free.. no way, I was charging $200 for graphic designs like that

With enough spamming, you'll eventually get good hits. Just gotta wade through all the teens.

26 Aug 07:36

mimi-min

otherwise I would have said sorry, screw off lmao

26 Aug 07:36

mimi-min

yeah in this case it was the former

26 Aug 07:36

Punk-A-Cat

I get that there are teens with no income, that's fine, but then you get these assholes who want you to make work for their company for free... wow rude

26 Aug 07:35

DanialG

I'm nowhere near good, but I was shocked that someone would pay me soo much for a steam profile image

26 Aug 07:35

mimi-min

I think it's because most of my stuff is "anime" lol

DanialG
