Am I discrediting myself? Not at all. My stuff is all one hundred percent done by hand in photoshop.

Of course. lol. Like I mentioned... this isn't anything like your stuff. I could photoshop the flames too.... but you already have that market and I don't have the time. PS flames take a lot of patience!

Didn't mean to sound rude.

and Aurora has the market cornered on what you're doing....maybe you could extract a few flames over and over, layering one type of fire on top of another and call it good and sell it and people would believe and buy!!! Nah, that'd never work....
;)

(No offense taken flamey....) :)

Refer to post #13.

Yes, you could draw them yourself in PS, take a picture, etc. Heck, anything Fred sells for clipart, I could make myself. But by having it already to go, no work involved... it saves time, and makes you money.

For example. A clipart of a horse. It might take... oh, 15-20 minutes to draw a nice horse jumping over a fence or something. But in 1 minute you could have a ready-to-go clipart of it. Time is money. Thus why all clipart and stock photography sites exist.

That's my philosophy anyways.

You are blogging with people here that have allready been there. Most artist's would not consider anything that is not original, and would not be proud of their work if they took shortcuts to achieve effects someone did for them. At the end of the day, you get more satisfication at stepping back and looking at your work and thinking, I earned my work & DESERVE to benifit from it with a feeling of accomplishment. If you can't feel it , you are not getting the benifit need to continue when that feeling doesen't come to you.

So you've never bought clipart or went to istock? Lots of shops spends thousands every year on this stuff, because it improves production and translates into.... profits.

I'm not copying anyone's work BTW. Hope it didn't sound like I am.

Well FLAMEY, No I've never been to istockphoto, Yes I have used elements of clipart, Don't feel up to par about posting pictures of work done with em. I would hvae a lot of traveling to do if I were to take photos of my work. Show some of your work and you may be you will be able to sell something. I'm not bashing you, you young guys are helping to keep the trade alive(hopefully) Reproducing graphics is not a good way to keep it alive & kickin

Personally the more and more of these cd's filled with clipart, fills, goofy shapes and what not I get sick. All this is doing is opening up a market for the non skilled people to open up a shop and put out wraps and other designs that have so much crap and fills and chrome bevels on them without having to know how to do them correctly or knowing when to use them. I have seen so many wrap like this around my area I laugh everytime.

I know not everyone can be a good designer but practice helps you develop the proper skills needed.

Doesn't anyone want to learn this stuff anymore or just have all the designs handed to them that they can print and plot on a vehicle. Everytime I get the Aurora catalog I get sick to my stomach and wonder do people use some of these really???

Just my 2 cents not meant to offend anyone I just wonder everytime I see it.

Thanks,
