It took awhile to create a good up-loadable graphic.

I've been a graphic designer/creative director in design shops and ad agencies for almost 20 years and am looking to make the switch to a different career path.

As a graphic designer and having been in marketing for numerous years, here are things I worry about:1) Finding web master that are responsible and reliable (yes, you lose control)2) Many try to save a buck and go international only to get burned3) Investors find a designer who don’t know the business so can’t provide input on set up, design, and functionalityThe Norris Group happens to use Virtual Investor Plus for our back end for our retail website and I update some of the front end stuff by myself.

Couldn't handle the rain anymore so moved to Sedona AZ.My son lives in Eugene and creates awesome custom property fliers and web site graphics for Realtors he said he has stayed fairly busy.

Post-cards with a nice graphic typically work best.

Biggerpro, it took me a while to realize that the graphic was someone in a big pocket with money streaming out.

Find something cheaper and pay cash, I know it won't be in CA either.Starting with an average, in this case way below average, deal is like saying, "I'll start out dating ugly, skanky women and work my way up to cute, nice girls.It sounds to me like you're suffering from "gottadoadealitis".

I just recently launched my career as an investor January 2007 and started my company Paramount Principle, IncI am a web designer/ graphic designer by day and an investor by night trying to build a consistent system and get and maintain deals in the pipeline. ..Short sales. .. . note buying....thats pretty much the direction I seem to be heading in.. ..I love this site and I appreciate the wealth of knowledge available. . thanks!

The same goes for the graphical element, although the site building templates out there deliver a lot of versatility when it comes to the look and feel.
