I was just browsing around different websites that have to do with Digital Media and I think it's the best. You give alot of great advice and ideas and I love all of your articles. I like a website that is easy to navigate around and doesn't take alot of time to find what you need. Great job with all of your accomplishments, and I hope there will be more to come for you. I am in my senior year of high school and I'm attending a technical school near me and I have chosen Digital Media. I think this class is a challenge and it takes alot of work, but I really enjoy it, especially when I make posters and get to edit the photots to make them more unique. Hi, Jacob.

I'm a journalism student and am considering going to a portfolio school after college. I love creating advertisements with eye-catching images and witty copy. I worry, however, that when surrounded by amazingly creative people, I will become very intimidated and won't produce my best work. I need to find confidence and I think this will help me to relax, stop comparing myself to others, and just let the ideas flow more freely. Thank you! This very helpful.
