gapingvoid: "cartoons drawn on the back of business cards"

Yup. There's always a sucker who will do it for "experience" or so that "people will see their work."

I get that one a lot: "I have lot's of rich friends and if you give me a discount, they'll see your stuff."

My answer? "People who can afford me want my stuff even more when they see it in places where people actually pay for work."

lol! I usually run into the opposite. They've blown all their money on creating an image and have nothing left to create a product!
