[:(]I want to go into graphic design after college, and grsphic design is my choice major. So, of course I'm doing what ever I can to get ahead. One thing that I did when I was bored was create my own website(kinda) and forum to go along with it. I needed someone's opinion who wouldn't just tell me it was great because they were friends or family, so I joined a graphic design forum. I posted my website and asked for website and feedback. Well...I didn't get the best respones, so I'm trying to make my website better, more professional, but theres not much I can do. $ issuses and I am still learning, which makes it a little more difficult. But reading peoples' responses, although I know I asked for help and they are trying to help, is dangerously lowering my self-esteem. I'm kinda lost.

I guess you should continue working on your graphic designing skills since you're still starting. It's just a first step in fulfilling what you want. My suggestion is learning contemporary or different types of graphic designing, I mean, let's say, by using Adobe Photoshop.

I really like your designs so consider purchasing Photoshop and use your skills in that program.
I hope it helps..
