Attitudes in the design community have started to slip? Or have they always been this way? Read on to see my thoughts on the types of attitudes I have recently run into and why they can be detrimental to your design career. Also I talk about positive approches to gaining clients and projects and why this can help you in your design career more than any awesomely badd ass project you create.

The World of Myspace Designs

on Jan 16 in Blog, Myspace Design, News tagged August Burns Red, Code, D-Dub Design, Design, Designs By The D, Guardian, Myspace Design, Sons of Nero, Web by Brandon

This is my review of good practices when designing myspace pages. Also I give some friendly insight and things that I have learned along the way while designing myspace pages for many many bands. And Lastly I give creidt where credit is due to some of the top myspace designers out there right now! Read all about it after the break!

SOO, I got an email the other day that really made me stop and think for a second about where design/web is going. The email that I received was basically a designer who was asking for my assistance  (he was super nice and respectable by the way so not talking down about him in anyway) in helping him understand code for Myspace designs. He told me that he had been designing for 15 years and just didn’t understand code and definitely didn’t understand how to code for myspace or where to put it or where to start etc …. Obviously and unfortunately I was not able to assit him in this just because this would create competition and well I had to learn it all from scratch and if I can do it, then anybody can haha. SO this got me thinking on how many myspace layouts there are now and how many designers there are out there doing them right now.
