Nobody inspiered me really. One day I just asked my Dad how people made websites and he showed me some basic HTML and I went from there into designing, to where I am now.

Mark Iafrate was the first person I ever talked to relating to design. I made a site, which was horrible. Then I learned about photoshop, and started working on that along with mark. So I guess I would have to thank Mark, for being a great mentor, and a friend.

I admit, being materialistic, I was interested in the monetary aspects of it :P

I was inspired by a friend in high school, I just started my own site. A really bad one you know, moving background, MIDI sound and stuff, really poor . A friend said their businesses needed a site, and I thought why not. Then I just went on making more and more. Thus I became a designer :-)

I didn't really get inspired, I just tried Photoshop at my moms work and thought it was cool. In the start I just did stuff like replacing Bush's head with mine etc.

Or I'm just an artistic person and drawing just wasn't exciting anymore. So I decided to try computer/graphic art and realized that websites and such are very fun to do.
I agree with that.
