Hi Phil,

Here's my brief experience with teaching photoshop. I ask $50/hr and have only taught a few students, but I doubt I'll do it anymore. Some people (not your friend I'm sure) just don't get it. I found it to be a huge waste of my time to try to teach a *housewife* how to use photoshop... just too frustrating for me... so I would recommend you select your students carefully and hopefully they will have some knowledge of Photoshop so you don't feel like you're wasting your time too.

PS for your level of expertise I would pay $200/hr easily.

ahahah, for $10 an hour he could just go flip burgers. Forget art, you could get rich being a chef...at macdonalds

light: where the hell did you get $10 an hour, are you on crack?

hmm.. $10 an hour? I'm making $10 an hour by providing tech support in my University Lab.. and they don't pay anything at all

so.. if you are teaching painting and your students will become good artists with photoshop.. (making art like eyewoo) then I'd be glad to pay about $45 an hour.. and i'm very cheap..

Light... It's difficult to understand where you're coming from... but just to help enlighten you a little bit about myself... here's a pencil drawing from life - that's pencil on paper with a live model - I did as a young student, probably 20 years before you were born...

Where the F**K part of your brain does your spew come from?

I replied the first time with this with a long explanation about what I said. However, in doing that I had to make some judgements on your work.

Honestly, I dont care about your work. Im more concerned about being the best I can be. So, sorry for judging your work.

Also, it doesnt benefit me any to get upset as most people here are newbies crusing thru trying to jump on the bandwagon of who they thinks is the better artist.

But yes.. I dont care about your work. I've a lot of work to do so I can be the best. And this means posting less here and caring less.

BYE! Don't mind me. i've got myself to mind so I can be the best.

Supply and Demand. You're an economics wizard, Light! HAHAHAHAHA.

Seriously, the remark about your "intelligence" cracks me up, and I now refuse to believe that you're sincere. Because first, you write like a child and second, you clearly cannot form a coherent argument. Are these the marks of intelligence?

Now stand by word and leave forever.

I have his address. So do others. He seriously drives me to the point of actually considering beating the shit out of him.

I'd better not talk too much though, or he might phone the big police people for my message board ranting. Oooooo *shudder*.

I think we should have a Sijun GT where the goal of the party is to find Light and beat him up... twice.

Die Light, or should I say "Curtis"? Shocked

Light- In a forum where like-minded people with similar passions, values, age, interest, dispositions..etc, you've managed to anger a lot of people. If you managed to alienate and piss off the people that should be your kindred spirits in life, what does that say about you? I can't imagine how easily you piss off the people that have nothing in common with you.

are you still here light? didnt you make a big 'cya later' thread????

good luck eyewoo, just ask for what you want and if they decline then tough. thats usually the best route. dont try to come up with a number you think theyll like,or chances are that youll shoot too low. quick note: good artists ALLWAYS sell themselves short. its a curse! haha shit ones brag and good ones question if their lesson is worth $100.

ive thought of this before too, im maybe 8 years experience 8-10hr/day. i might have something to offer housewives wanting to make christmas cards to thier shiteating sons. or maybe i could be hired to help them "realx" Shocked

even so im sure you could school me in one lesson. most people here in fact.

start with high rates... get all the business you can get.. decrease a bit.. more business comes in.. Then increase it later because your name will be public by then..

I don't know which artist it was but he was selling his tutorial video tapes for a HUGE sum of money.. and that wasn't even one on one training..

polarFONTey · Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2002 9:43 pm

ha. yeah. richard schmid but man he's an amazing painter. A guy at worked just ordered it. I can't wait to watch it.

cost like 75-100 bucks! but I'm sure the tape is well worth it
