Networking for designers made easy with the GraphicDesignForums.co.uk

Established 6 months ago, www.graphicdesignforums.co.uk has grown quickly with over 170 members and rising.

Unlike many of the US targeted design forums, the Graphic Design Forums have been set up to mainly cater for designers based in the UK.

The website is split into many targeted forums such as...

Graphic Design Forums:
This is a great place to discuss all design related issues, with dedicated forums for graphic design, logo design, print design, brand identity and more.

Website Design Forums: (direct link - www.websitedesignforums.co.uk)
Offering dedicated forums for website design and search engine optimisation to name but a few.

Tenders & Services Forum:
This is where businesses and members of the general public can post their design requirements for designers to respond to.

Advertising Forum:
An area specifically for advertising your design services and offers to members and anyone browsing the website.

Software Forums:
Do you have technical problems with your design software or need advice how to do a particular task in any of the major software packages, such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Dreamweaver or Corel Draw? The Software forums are ideal for you.

Business Forums:
Are you a freelance graphic/website designer or would you like to be? Are you new to the industry? Visit the Business forum where other experienced freelancers offer support and advice on many aspects of running your own design business.

Damon Trasatti, Owner and resident forum moderator said,

"There are many Graphic/Website Design Forums online; unfortunately 99% are targeted to the US audience, with quotes/prices being discussed in Dollars and discussion on business related issues which only apply to the US. Being a designer based in the UK, this is not ideal from my point of view."

He continued, "I decided to contact some of my fellow professional designers who all agreed with how I felt, after some discussion as to what we felt was needed from a UK based design forum, the Graphic Design Forums were born".

The forums are completely free to use and the community are very friendly and welcoming. Whether you are a business looking for a design service, a designer offering your service, or just interested in the design industry in general, the Graphic Design Forums are a great place to be.
