Long distance relationship sucks. From Abuja to Lagos is difficult not to mention you're completely out of the country.

Thanks man, I appreciate your reply.

Photoshop can be boring sha cry

Wow. I didn't believe there was a soul alive that thinks Photoshop is boring, the world of graphic design revolves around that software.

If these are for fun, then they are cool.
But on a professional level as per say you hope to get paid from this, it's really good, you just need to pick your fonts better and learn Photoshop better too

I thought the OP wanted an honest review of his work, in my own opinion, if you find erad's review Dissatisfactory then you've not met clients that will frustrate your life, after making several artworks, they will still tell you they don't like it.

Honestly Grand, the logo are not good enough, you need to work more on your choice of fonts, fonts carry different moods, some are serious, some playful and others formal, you need to choose then depending on your client.

I think your choice of colour needs a rethink as well, that pink one no cash am at all, it should have been all black and white.

Everybody needs to do more work obviously but if we wish to meet world standards, we need to take criticism from a positive view.

Asking Erad for his own work and saying Nigerians isn't a really good way to handle criticism, you asked for reviews.

Nice and cool....I am jealous of this o.....I use Photoshop CS5 but I have nt really known how to smoothen rough edges of edited images just like the hand in your pix.....it is as if the hand pix in your work is original because it has no roughness or did you edit the background as well? And if yes, how?

You should take more tutorials on Cropping out images and refining edges. YouTube is a good place to start with MTN N25, you can download about 500MB worth of files

Please take more tutorials to improve yourself if you love this profession.

oselydia:
please, am not posting to seek attention, rather for an advise.
I meant this guy about 5years ago, we became friends and I was OK with it, because I wasn't looking for a serious relationship and based on the distance, I was fine. about 2years agos, he travelled down for the first time to come see me, I was so excited becos he actually took the risk of coming over to come see me, I felt love and was willing to give him a try.
we started dating and we decided on seeing at least once in 2month, since I was schooling and he was working, I later needed to see him more often, and he started giving all sort of excuse that he can't come, he has spend enough this weeks, even with my own help of funding his trip he still would come up with an excuse. now I feel am disturbing him, the way he respond to my calls, my chat and all, make me feel am disturbing him. I don't know what to do, he actually stop calling, i seriously don't know what to do right now, because I do love him.
please friends what do you think/feel I should do, please I beg you don't insult me if u have no advise for me,

There are lots of possible reasons.
Long distance relationship might work for others and fail some others. So ermm that means you are now single abi grin In that case, let's hook up, we might be uploading our pre-wedding pictures soon.
I'll be Joker and you can be Harley kiss wink

Romance / Re: Please My Fellow Nigerians Help Me Before I Kill Myself. by extwoo(m): 7:52am On Mar 26, 2017
First of all, don't kill yourself ( you wan leave us for this suffering abi, noooo! We must dey together)

Secondly, I don't know what you studied and how good you were at it, but generally getting a job is difficult without a skill, mostly ICT skills. If you don't have any, it's not too late to learn.

Also, you have to leave that house, necessity is the mother of invention, when you enter street and starve, you'll take up odd jobs to survive.

Finally, if you're the first graduate in your family, that would mean there was no key person with similar experience to guide you through, Bro, take up any job you see, even if na to teach Creche for 8k per month, being a graduate doesn't entitle you to huge pay automatically.

If you look at it closely, most people don't end up working with their certificate, think of it this way, if you were not a graduate, what could you do to fend for yourself?

You mentioned you'd like to start a business, Bro, think about this very very well .

In a nutshell, please don't die. cry

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: How A Small 10K Job Helped Me Live A Better Life by extwoo(m): 8:04pm On Mar 21, 2017
Could you please share your contact, I need help with earning on freelance websites. I also earn 10k from one stressful job like that, I'm aware of the possibilities of earning bigger, I need help with that. Please help a fellow 10k salary earner with lots of responsibility.
mrnwas:


In my country Nigeria, there seem to be a new way of linking everything that’s evil to the president.

The Unemployed ones blame Buhari, Even SSCE holder still shout Buhari when they cannot buy airtime for their Babes.

When you’re there saying no job, someone has within the last 12 months advanced to the level he never knew

He’ll reach.

Let me explain.


After HND and NYSC, I spent a couple months at home doing nothing, these were linked with the fact that I expected something nice to come my way very soon, especially with the incoming new administration. Back then I sat home, ate whatever comes my way and did nothing, this means I earned nothing at all since I had no salary to expect or did nothing to earn any.

After a series of thought, I decided to take up any job that came my way. There had been a vacancy notice in one of those corporate offices about 2 miles from home, I decided to check it out anyways.

Applied as a messenger, qualified for the job after all and was later given the shock of my life. Yes it Was a shock cos I never believed I’ll be paid 10,000 for a whole month. Well, I took it after all, I just didn’t want to earn nothing at the end of the month.
During my work as a cleaner, my boss discovered my skills with the computer, he had no secretary, so he always has me write his letters, have some documents typed, scan and merge some important letters also.


With this extra skill, I got some tip at the end of the month adding to my 10,000 salary and I would smile home always. The thing is, its not enough, but its something, at least I’ll buy my gas, pay some bills and buy some food stuffs, weekends, I go to the sites for some bricklaying jobs after which I earn some #2500.


I took the extra jobs cos I had this pressing need for a laptop of my own. I heard there are so many ways I could earn with my computer skills online and so I did everything I could to buy one for myself. So I kept up the hustle.


These were enough for the moment. Later that year, another vacancy. Its was a vacancy advertisement from a federal health facility around the locality. They’re in need of a Health Attendant and being an Environmental Health Officer from what I’d studied at the polytechnic, I knew I had a bigger chance with the health sector.


So I was called for an Interview, I passed the test and was qualified. I was a bit disappointed when the Employers slapped us with the greatest reality of all, yes, we have been employed as cleaners (Shey this would be corporate cleaners abi na wetin?). Out of the 5 accepted applicant, 3 quit immediately.


I looked around, I scratched my head, the thing pain me sha, but I realised i was alone on this, whatever decision I make right now will determine how things turns out for the next few months since I already said goodbyes to my former place of cleaning.


My younger sister had previously been offered a job in Haliburton, a company where she bags over #300,000 monthly. So I needed something to take home too.


Chai! So I wear this fine blue shirt, knot tie, black trouser, with my koko shoe only to be employed as a cleaner? But what to do?


I nor fit die, the pay was better than the 10k I got from my previous work place and so I accepted the offer.


The next Monday, I resumed work only to be taken to the cleaning session.


My brother and sisters, I scrubbed the floor, I pruned the flowers, I washed rags, those hospital dirty things, piss and blood stained clothing’s, I washed all. Some times self, some lazy relatives of admitted patients would offer a tip just to have some clothes washed for them, I had a good saving scheme from the daily tips I received.


After 4 months, my arrears came, wow, #140,000, quickly, I went to Lagos and caught a very nice UK used Laptop.


I got my account on Fiverr and I started hustling. The thing is, I designed my schedule with these people so I go to work only on Thursdays And Friday. I made sure I work hard on Fiverr and today, I make over $500 from Fiverr, I’m paid 30k monthly with arrears big enough to cater my needs.


I live on a little stream of income, so I cut my coat according to my material, I know things will be better, I’m hopeful, the future is certainly going to be great.


This is a lesson for us all, never be so quick to reject an offer cos you may never know where your best earning would be coming from.


I know a graduate deserves a good pay, but sometimes you need a small pay, you need to understand the basics of management before you start earning big.


No Job is ever too little for you as a young man, if I hadn’t accepted the 10k job, It wouldn’t have been easy for me to learn of the Job adverts and if I hadn’t heard of the job adverts, applied and got the job, I may not have been able to earn those arrears with which I caught my laptop and register on fiverr Platform.


Always see the little things in life as a stepping stone to greater heights.


I hope you understand this my friends.

Your Boss lied to you. It's not good enough. Too many elements. A logo must be concise, simple and easy to remember. I'm seeing too much colours that don't agree. You should take more tutorials if you're passionate about this job. Don't settle for average when the best is attainable.
