^ Thank you Bazza for your answer, that's exactly what I was thinking. Now... if I could just ask another questions:

With me becoming an upcoming designer (and I haven't sold a single design yet in the Marketplace, I agree their not the best designs) --- what ways can I be creative and get in the state of mind a regular designer would be to create a great design?

In short, what are some inspirations some professional designer's use that could help me?
