If you are legitimately good at graphic design, check out www.topcoder.com and see if there are any projects that need web site graphics created for web site projects.I don't openly sell my graphics like I should. I post my art, someone will hit me up and I'll do it if I like it. I'll be starting a website to sell in bulk as I'm involved with a niche about wrestling which is in need of advertising/promotional material. I'm getting $45 off 1 quick job within the next few days. Now times that with more actual daily clients? Easily brings in more than this dishwasher role which I'd have to break my back for hours just to even get a glimpse of 45 and really no future.
That's the truth. Do I "need" a job? No, not right now at least. Do I need to apply myself more? Yea. I'm not bumming out here. Just a 19 year old that didn't go by the blueprint. Ownership & freedom is my end goal.
They are a crowdsourcing-based contractor, so what they do is put out a competition among developers who have to come up with the solution. The top three developers get money. Everyone else gets zero. The company i worked for hired them, we eventually dropped them for a couple of issues. But other than that, some of their developers were full time and others were part time. They might have stuff you can do. I'm not 100% sure though.
