Yeah, the thing is, I have this fundamental hangup about paying directly for this service. A tattoo artist? his work is permanent. It'll be there for years, and even after you die. My website? this is my 3rd one, and while I want it to look nice, it's not making me any money (it might SOME DAY but I cannot predict this due to the nature of people and music preference) It'll be lucky to still be there after another 2 years.

I'm not sure what artists charge for web graphics, I'll pay them but I just dont do the whole "yeah that'll be 1000$ for us to do this and this for your site"

I know if I wanted like top level crazy pro-style stuff i'd hit up something like 2advanced.

I know I sound like I'm bashing web graphic artists, and that's horrible considering i'm here soliciting the generosity of their services, but I was just hoping that there was someone out there like my previous art guy, has skills and needs to prove them, and will use that proof to go professional.
