Rob:
Thank you for such encouraging comments about the site – high praise especially from someone with such an extensive background in graphic design.

I really like the look of your website as, unlike a lot of others in this area, it doesn’t really look like a blog on the home page and therefore looks much more professional. I hope you get loads of work as a result of your efforts.

Interesting to hear about your background and what you like about the job. Looks like we all like the variety!

Eric:
It’s so tricky to know where to draw the line in the sand when pricing your work – too low? too high? Good industry research and taking pride in your work count for a great deal. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi Tracy nice site, and great answer on not underselling your work. It does devalue the industry as a whole. – Eric

Thank you! I’ve been getting some really positive feedback on the site redesign, which is an enormous boost. I hope you enjoy the future posts I’ll be rolling out, starting in the next day or so.

Great work styling the Revolution theme! Like Vivien, I also didn’t recognise it until I read it mentioned. Off to subscribe. :)

Yes, it was a course which had a very limited intake (15 students per year) so there was some competition to get in.
I’m glad you liked my first post – I have lots of ideas lined up for future posts so keep checking by, or even better – subscribe to the feed.

Vivien:
Thank you, and congratulations on being the very first commenter! Yes, I worked hard to customise Revolution to make the design something I felt was mine and not borrowed (or, in this case, purchased). It’s a great theme.

Lauren:
I’m glad you enjoyed reading my responses to your questions – your replies were great too. I especially liked reading about your “aha” moments – so true. I’ve actually been planning my own meme-style post for this blog, around the question of “what do you enjoy most about what you do?” but not restricting it to designers – very soon.
