Ask HN: Is there such a thing as a part time web designer?

1 pointsby vs2about 7 years ago
I am an engineer at heart, I have always wanted to be better at graphics and design but nothing I create is good enough<p>The site is http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.interrupts.io<p>I am working on a part-time concept, basically meetups but for companies and institutions. I have built the core site and functionality but I am looking for someone to help really make the UI slick and fast<p>Where is a good place to find help&gt; I have tried dribble but nothing came of it. I am willing to pay $2-3k

Also, just add a couple pictures of meetups with full color.<p>Some suggestions:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fotosearch.com&#x2F;CSP452&#x2F;k47478342&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fotosearch.com&#x2F;CSP452&#x2F;k47478342&#x2F;</a><p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fotosearch.com&#x2F;CSP351&#x2F;k17787232&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fotosearch.com&#x2F;CSP351&#x2F;k17787232&#x2F;</a><p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fotosearch.com&#x2F;CSP142&#x2F;k1429073&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fotosearch.com&#x2F;CSP142&#x2F;k1429073&#x2F;</a>

When I initially started various projects I just went to upwork and hired &quot;good enough&quot; designers and copywriters.<p>Also, I would change your price to &quot;call for enterprise&quot;<p>My thinking is smaller orgs would just do this on the fly. I could be wrong.

Have you got it in front of any companies HR departments?<p>Also, you need to think in terms of the value to the organization ie. the ones paying for it.
