Where can I find small and limited projects in order to make my first steps toward working professionally as a designer/developer Just thought you might want to add it to your answer, for future people looking for it: I found one other option: art contests. There are plenty going around, they allow any style, and they have the advantage of giving a theme, a motivation, a deadline, and comparison with peers. Most are not useful for building a portfolio, but really good to train your skills. |

Designing in Black & White Thanks, I will do that; it seems one of the solutions is to add original shapes/figures, where-as I am more used to "minimalist" design (lines/boxes) |

Where can I find small and limited projects in order to make my first steps toward working professionally as a designer/developer Thanks alot for the advice and encouraging; I'm trying not to think about it as a new career, more as a complement to my normal work, but this make it sound tempting :) |

Where can I find small and limited projects in order to make my first steps toward working professionally as a designer/developer Not that uncommon actually, and it can be a lot more expensive (random example: surgeons). The site is offering what I'm looking for (various scales of projects, with adapted prices), I'll look into it, thanks :) |

Where can I find small and limited projects in order to make my first steps toward working professionally as a designer/developer Thanks, your answer and the others made me realize that real projects were more important than small free work, I will focus on that. |

Where can I find small and limited projects in order to make my first steps toward working professionally as a designer/developer Thanks! I have enough ideas by myself, but am not demanding enough with myself. As with sports, foreign languages or maths, it is easier to learn if someone else is setting higher expectations. But yes, as you said, doing small sites banners could be detrimental, so I will look at things like "Volunteer your services to open source projects, non-profits, and public organizations (schools, libraries, or government agencies)", which seems to correspond the most to what I'm looking for. Thanks again! |
