I have always meant to back to school and get a BA in graphic design and start my career from there, but I am hesitant to get my self into a ton of debt for something I might be able to do on my own. How many of you designers out there are making a living with out art college/secondary schooling, and how many of you are graduated?

I would love to hear different peoples opinions... is it worth it?

My design for the Threadless Hearts Noir,
check it out and let me know what you think! :D



A mash-up/parody of The Maltese Falcon using beloved characters of Star Fox!!! :D

I am addicted.

Heck yea.

Update (but I bet Staffell already showed this around):

HAPPY TOWEL DAY EVERYONE!!!!

A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-bogglingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.”

For me, it's all about the:

in Garth Nix's book "Abhorsen", which goes by the same name.
