 request from a now unemployed graphic designer
working in corporate in-house marketing for the past 5+ years has left my portfolio hurting
i want to take the time now and get a job i enjoy
i need to 1) make some new stuff of my own to get my work back up to speed 2) get some new skills with illustrator, photoshop, and learn flash and dreamweaver
if any of you designer types out there have some work you are particularly proud of, or if you know of any sites with tutorials and such, could you let me know? i'm needing some files to just break apart and see how it was put together
thanks
