this is why i respect graphic designers so much. i can never handle doing it for a living. perhaps as a part-time only.

well said

good advise for new designer

someone is just going to be a realistic one thanks good sharing it

Kesian ppl always try to cheat graphic designers. They are hardworking people too. Is shortchanging them really common?

Makes sense. Bottom line is don't settle for less than what your work is worth and make sure there is something to prevent them from running away with your work for free. Applicable to many scenarios, not just artwork.

Interesting post. I think it's something for newcomers to think about. thank you.

Good posts. Quite helpful for beginers

Thank you for the guidance
