Bro, give it up already. You carry your self like a child bragging on the internet about how much money you make and what kind of car you drive and where you live, but people that are really ballin' and making money don't brag on the internet about it. The fact is you do design a large quantity of mix tape covers, but your quality of work is garbage. C-4 may not design as many cd covers as you, but his quality of work is very professional and not even comparable to yours, and he actually designs "cd covers" that are in retail stores nationwide, not mix tape covers for free download on websites, lol....
I have designed several cd/dvd covers that were nationally distributed every single year since i've been designing full time.
if I only did 10-20 cd covers a year like this d00d I could work really hard on them and be broke too........ why the fuck would I want to?
i'd rather do 4-5 a day, and make plenty of money....... because in the end nobody is going to remember either one of us as a great designer, so whats the point?
the only thing that matters is good business & money unless your building up some type of great name such as pen & pixel.. and we see where they ended up......
you know most of the designers that work really hard at design get burnt the fuck out because they approach the design game as a hobby instead of a business......
how many designers have you seen come & go that work really hard to create top notch designs? or just designers in general really? almost none of them have the business mind to have any longevity.
u see how this guy comes & goes with his designs.... that's because he works too hard for the amount of money he's making..... it doesn't make sense.....
if someone come's to me and wants full photoshoot, I can do all that too, but I charge way more.
I have had customers that did flyers, cd covers, single covers, life sized posters, vehicle wraps, business cards, t-shirts, and the whole 9..... just on customer/company gets the works, and I did the photography......
u have to approach each client different and understand what the business requires..... it's a business not a hobby.... and if you want to approach it as a hobby or think your going to be some great designer, that's cool, but your wasting your time & energy.....
