Re: FN-FORUM: freelancers wanted
date posted 2nd August 2007 21:01
I was going to say that. I think a forum/website with approved/reviewed
freelancers from different ilks, web design, animation, media services etc
would be a great idea. There are some freelance sites around already with
supplier review systems. Unfortunately, Im too busy to set something up like
that, and probably not as experienced in doing that kind of website the same
way as you web devs are.
