Re: FN-FORUM: projects that annoy me.

I thought the same at the beginning and wasted time applying for
projects, the difficulty for us in the UK is matching the price that

I have never heard of any UK freelancers getting work off of one, not
that I've asked them all.

Much better focusing on local work.
