Hello everyone,I'm a (web) designer and developer. I've only recently registered my account here, but I've been designing threads for services in the past elsewhere. Just looking to get some information regarding threads here. Is there a demand for fully designed threads? Here's an example of a thread design I created in the past: https://i.imgur.com/nE51qXL.pngI'm not familiar with the limits regarding posting images on this forum. Above image is almost 8000 pixels tall. Could someone post an image like this? Or can certain members post images, but with certain limits? I'm looking to maybe start a service in the future where I design threads, mostly for [ANN] I would expect. Hopefully I'll get some replies to get some insight in the demand. Maybe share average prices that are going around for announcement threads, etc. Cheers, Wunderkind

Demand? There is! A huge demand considering how many ICO and projects are sprouting each day. Problem is, the competition is tough. You'll see that there are already some reputable bctalk designers here like Jayce ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1142066.0) and SFR( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1136108.0) which gives you lower chances to be hired for work (factors: reputation + rank). I guess a good way for you start here is to lower your rates than your competitions. Start low then make an increase if you have already prove something here (quality of your designs are good so there's no problem with that). You can also list yourself here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1610428.0

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it. Looks like the quality of thread designs isn't really that high around here, so I definitely see potential there. Also thanks for the listing link.

It looks like you've got a high standards so good luck with the competition if you think the quality of thread design's here aren't really high. I'm not a designer myself but I can say that those designers thread out there are focusing more with their designs and their threads are just a plus.

Obviously don't want to be too negative and I must say I've seen some nice designs, but I do indeed feel there's room for improvement. I must say I'm quite the perfectionist, since I often think I can do better, so that can work against me too ^_^

You're right, your threads look very nice. The ones I've seen here are mostly a bunch of grouped up images that look like one of those old blogs people were building in basic html. Just note that a forum upgrade is long past due and this layout limits the possibilities. I wish we had a modern forum already. Every time I come here it's like a journey to the past.

Checking out the thread you've made, you have the edge to compete with those professional thread designers themselves at the services section.
And I like the color combination of that example thread you've given. Are you depending to the color that was demanded by the company or you are the one that's deciding for them?
Trying to help you out with the size of image per thread but I haven't seen on the meta section that there's a thread for that or I didn't just dig the latter part.

Thanks. Regarding the example thread I linked and your questions. I decided on those colors. Usually at the start of a project I ask clients about their preferences (i.e. dark/light layout), if they already have existing graphics or if there are certain colors they'd like to work with, etc. Most of the time I'm not given specific requirements with complete freedom to design something. Also couldn't find anything regarding image limitations myself, so I don't think there are any real limitation. Except that you have to be Jr. Member to post images if I'm correct.

Yes, you must be a Jr. Member first before posting an image as theymos says here When the poster becomes a Jr member, the images that he tried to post previously will automatically be re-enabled
And with regards to the size of the image I tried to search it but there's no result and checking out the Bounties (Altcoins) section where there are so many image on the threads. I guess there's no exact size limit on the image for each thread that you can do. You can check it and compare your image sizes.

That's good and you've got unique color combination this is where the attracting part starts when the color combination isn't that blurry while becoming catchy to the eyes. No limits on the size I can see some threads that are even converting their whole thread together with the contents into an image.

You've got a nice personality since this is an industry where you do really have to compete with others, well good luck with your thread designing service soon.

Although you might be expecting a higher pay, though I don't know how much a designer is getting around but I'm sure its very high and competitive. Even signature creation here is very demanding because there are a lot of campaign popping up every month. So can create your own design thread here and maybe some manager can see your design and hire you. Goodluck.

One question I had, and I think I already know the answer. It looks like signatures are not images, and are made of pure HTML and inline CSS right?
Because as a developer that might also be something I could also start doing in the future.
Edit: looks like I found the answer already.

Signatures are pure BBcodes but you can still put an image with but with those codes. And it's a good future plan for you of doing that career since many campaigns are also requiring their signature and looking for someone to develop it.
This will help you out a tutorial/lesson for bbcodes made by roslinpl [LEARN] BBCode Lessons & Tutorials [+tutorial videos!]Since you are thread designer, it's a good combination if you'll start making signatures too.

If you do see that those quality isnt too good into your eyes then you would really able to say into yourself that you do have potential to keep up on those old timers and as being suggested just stay low on your rates so that they might able to consider you. Dont worry on the demand since it is always present on here as you can see theres lots of projects do pop out. Just do the basic start up and do the best as you can and you might really get some popularity later on.

I've read all of what he said here and he's quite a perfectionist. I must say I'm quite the perfectionist,
And also he has the way of thinking that he can do better and I can't blame him on that attitude. He clearly wants a competition on creating more designs. since I often think I can do better, so that can work against me too ^_^
Well of course there's a respect for the legend designers here on forum and there are plenty of them. @Wunderkind why not start your own thread already on the services section with your offer even you've got posting image limit? Your design looks impressive.

This is your sample image that you mentioned is 8000px tall. As for character limitations in SMF, it usually cuts off any text that exceeded 61000 character count. Also, threads are usually embedded with GIFs and images so I think there would be a great market for you in here, especially for those in the Altcoin Announcement sections. Since you're already into designing stuff, you can also learn BBCode designs which are used for signatures. It's also a good market and you can provide awesome designs and compete with roslinpl and the likes.

Good luck!

I would, but I won't start any service for at least a couple more weeks, because I have personal projects I'm working on. So when the time comes, I'll look back at this thread and if you're still in need of a designer by then I'll be happy to shoot you a message Definitely appreciate the comments I've received thus far, thanks all. @dothebeats I will also see if I can offer BBCode signatures, I'll look into that nonetheless. Also while I work on other things and before I open any service I'll use the forum to gain some more knowledge. It seems that I'll have to get Jr. Member first if I want to post my own thread with images or I'll have to have someone host it for me.
