Hey everyone, I'm Ricky. I previously had a staff position earlier this year, but regrettably stepped down for personal reasons - most of which involving school. I've come to understand that although knowledge is important, it shouldn't be the main focus driving your life. I'm not saying dropping out should be an option, but find time for other things to fill your life with also. A good person once told me "It doesn't matter if your 1st or 2nd in your class because you're only going to be recognized for what, 30 minutes to an hour on Graduation night?" This really hit home when they told me this. It made me realize that I was really trying to achieve something that is reachable, however not exactly probable mentioning the fact that I'm up against around 5 people for the top two positions. Anyway, let's step out of my life and get to the issue at hand.
I'm applying for Design Staff. I'm not here to lie so I'm going to lay the facts simply. My post count isn't exactly where it should be (acceptable) considering I've been a member since early 2006. I didn't really start becoming active until about 6 - 7 months later when I started designing for Createblog, submitting layouts as frequently as I could. So this issue has really damaged my so-called "activity" around the forums. I am genuinely a nice person when it comes to posting and being helpful around the community of which the Resource Forums is where I feel most comfortable. I am always attentive and quick to reply to questions via posting or PM. I am blunt and straight-forward whether it involves asking for Scripts, Codes, Tutorials, even if it is the same queries day after day. I have had altercations in the past and recently, mainly with issues involving jocking. I'm not saying my designs are Grade "A" or Top-Quality but jocking is the one thing I absolutely loath. Especially when designers specifically read "Do Not Jock My Layouts/Codes" or "Do not jock, redistribute, or alter". But, I've come to realize you cannot always control what occurs on the internet. I absolutely love Web/Graphic design. I have been creating designs for a little over 3 years and I'm always finding new and innovative ways to increase my designs further. I am qualified in the areas of HTML, CSS, and PHP (Wordpress Theming). I fluctuate mainly between Myspace and Website (sometimes Xanga) designs. I thank you for reviewing my application and I wish everyone the best of luck during this hiring process. CONTACT INFORMATION: AIM - secretxninja2010 Email - solis_1992@hotmail.com PM - X |
