Open for work.

It started two years ago, and now its official.
I’m pursuing full time web design/development.
I’ve been working for a non-profit for almost 2 years, and all the while my skill set has been growing, as it continues to. So, I’ve decided to take the plunge.

As I’m raising my antennas for job opps, I thought I’d raise them here in a place that has become some kind of web classroom/living room for me over the last two years.

I’m following several job boards already, but should anyone come across anything web design or front-end development rated, let me know.

Thanks good TXPeeps

Re: Open for work.

Make sure you check out the 37 Signals Board and Authentic Jobs Just subscribe to the feeds.

I found my current position through 37 Signals. I also highly recommend joining as many web design oriented local user groups as you can.

Re: Open for work.

Thanks Hak,
I’ve done the first of your pieces of advice (job pile encompasses them all).

The second is a good idea as well :)

thx as usual.

Re: Open for work.

Matthew, I’ll contact you offline, as I have a couple of design projects (i.e. I need a logo and a design for one or more of my sites).

I find looking at job boards as confusing as picking a CMS to use.

I don’t see why more projects don’t have a page on their main site for approved contractors, persons that are proven to work reliably with System X. My reasoning is that if I like Textpattern, then I’m going want to find someone well versed in it’s intricacies, the same with a forum like PunBB or any other system for that matter.

Why pick a Mambo person to work on a Wordpress site?

Re: Open for work.

Good luck and lots of paying clients, Matthew. You deserve it, I know for sure.

PS: What about amending your forum profile to point to your new and shiny business website?
