Ask HN: Freelance graphic design
Greetings fellow hackers...
I have a fair bit of design work I would like to have done in the near future. It includes....
1. Aesthetic-only redesign of our website (just some templates really, not the actual finished product. we can handle content and the HTML drudgery),
2. Some print media brochures of our products,
3. some tradeshow displays and business cards.
We already have a great logo but unfortunately our designer has moved on to bigger and better things.
There's two avenues I want to explore:
1. I know there are some sites where you can post freelance design work like this for people to bid on. I have forgotten what the good ones are; does anybody recommend a site and/or person who has done work for them in this fashion.
2. If you know a freelance designer (preferably a person and not a firm) who can do most or all of above described things in the 4-7k range (depending on the quality of their portfolio) whom you recommend, I am all ears. We are on a budget as you might expect and I can't really afford to pay more than this.
Thanks in advance all. 1) olance.com and elance.com are two of the biggies. I've had mixed success on elance but, when it was a success, it was a good success so I've continued to do business there. Craigslist for locals is possibly a try... Success with design or programming, and with who? Those are both pretty good sites. If you're still not able to find anything, my partner and I do graphic design as well. http://www.alfajango.com for our portfolio. yep thanks!
