TROPHY CASE

CM7 on Galaxy S Captivate -- Everything suddenly is constantly crashing by Iacobusin Android

[–]switchmotiv 0 points1 point ago

I would try Busy Box then. If not I have no idea, but I've had that problem a few times and short installing one of those apps I have only found a restore to solve it which isn't too bad, just takes a while to get everything back to normal.

Good luck.

I've had this happen a few times on my Droid Inc. Try installing BusyBox or Superuser, i can't remember which worked for me, again or look to see if either is even on your phone. My phone was so bad i had to put the APK on an SD card and install it.

I use Photoshop and Illustrator for the most part with slicing and art boards, but a friend told me that that this program is pretty sweet if you work on a MAC, I work on PC primarily so I'm not purchasing it. It has CSS you can copy and such within it.

*Edit: The actual program is sketch2

The catch-22...I'm a grad who can't get a job, but even internships won't take me because I'm a grad? What? by Swanbatin jobs

[–]switchmotiv -1 points0 points ago

I know exactly how you feel. I'm 27, started looking for jobs at 25, so I was a bit late to the game compared to many people. It's also rough because personal work doesn't go far if it's not published work.

Try Creative Circle. It's a placement agency that's going to take a decent chunk out of your pay, but you can still get about $20-$30 per hour and at least it's some experience. Just try to get away as quickly as possible so you can be paid what you're worth.

Also Aquent is another firm that does the same but i haven't had any luck with them at all.

[–]switchmotiv 0 points1 point ago

Well I won't lie, I don't have any on my as of now because I don't have a steady job, just some freelance and it's kind of a challenge to myself to get one. I'm still down to meet up and grab some grub or something. I just don't want to be the guy who shows up looking to get a free smoke.

Wednesday on would be best. I currently live in Hyde park but i have a car so moving around isn't an issue. I'm looking to move to the north side within a few months. I just moved here from FL so I've been eyeing these chicago reddits for meet ups.

I have an interview for a designer position in about 2 hours and this was a lot more helpful then i had thought it would be. Some of the questions i haven't ever been asked and would have tripped me up. If i get one of these questions and get the job I'll have to send you a 6 pack! Thanks!

How can I mix Visual Communications with video games? by shazwaldin graphic_design

[–]switchmotiv 1 point2 points ago

As i apply to more and more UI jobs, web seems to be a very common factor. I have too much schooling and debt to go back, but if i could i would. Good luck and hopefully we'll start seeing some of your work!

[–]switchmotiv 1 point2 points ago

You should know a bit of it. Even if you don't code it's nice to know what might have to be done to implement something.

Psychology is a good asset to have too as all interfaces will have human interaction. I'm a light coder turned designers, but I'm essentially teaching myself UX/UI because it's where i really want to go. I have a wealth of sites and resources if you ever want to read up on it some more.

Also a nice degree to compliment UI is Human Factors. I know UCF in Central Florida offers a masters degree for it.

If anyone else has any tips I would love to hear them as well.
