I'm close to a four letter outburst here so I'm going to leave it at this, but I'd just like to say that if anyone takes this 'leading' studio up on their offer then be warned that you've only got yourselves to blame.

    And bear in mind it doesn't help real designers trying to earn a living by going and giving your services away for nothing. That isn't graphic design, it's selling out.

    My guess is a couple of chancers trying to wiggle their way into being the middle man.

    *on a distant forum* "Dear 'company B' we have a very talented web designer who is willing to provide you with a site at reduced rates!"

    They skim off 80% and move on to the next starving artist / large corporation

    Yeah you are probably spot on. But the fact that they have come on here to try it on in the first place infuriates me.

    It doesn't matter to me that they are the middle man or not. They think they can come on here and get work for nothing. That is what bothers me because the way I see it, whether it's on this forum or another they will probably get what they are after and that is a BIG, BIG problem.

    Sad, but true. The quality of the work won't be up to much but if it's free, are people really gonna give two shits?
