Hello all!

[James-SC]

Hi everyone,

My name is James and I am a 20-year-old recently graduated student from Southampton, UK. I didn't study a proper graphic design degree but while doing my degree (essentially magazine journalism) I had the opportunity to flirt with several design units, such as magazine design, website design and fashion photography.

I really enjoy design work, although I realise I still have a lot to learn... hopefully this forum will help me hone my skills and one day become vaguely employable!

James

Welcome aboard, James.

When you get a few moments, be sure to check out the threads HERE (http://www.graphicdesignforum.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=42) (the "frequently discussed topics" thread provides a lot of information about job searching, education/experience, and things like that, and the New User FAQ covers a lot of the bizarre inside jokes).

Enjoy your stay!

James-SC, welcome to GDF! I'd like to congratulate you on your charmingly modest goal of becoming "vaguely employable." :)

Welcome to the forum James. Heed Kitties words. This isn't really a design forum. It's a food forum, with a little bit of graphic design thrown in here and there just to change it up a bit. ;)

[budafist]

I like to claim that I need food to fuel this giant creative brain of mine.

Now, who wants a glass of creative juices? I got a whole keg right here :D

[Bladez]

Keg?! I'm game!! (at least this time I don't need to be in a toga for it)

And what, pray tell, are your creative juices a concoction of?

[budafist]

Use your imagination CraigB :)

[Craig B]

Sorry, but I lack any imagination and therefore outsorce for any I might need.

I need hard facts. Your unwillingness to answer the question makes me question just what you're trying to pass off as creative juices and where you came upon this mystery keg.

[budafist]

You don't trust me Craig? Well, you don't have to partake in the mystery creative juices keg party if you don't want. Your loss. I'm not offended, just sad for you. If you had a sip, you might find insight to make up some explanation for where the creative juices come from. I guess it's sorta a Catch 22.
