great stuff... i might have to go through some tuts and attempt to use illustrator that atm sits there an does nothing.

2 examples of places where if you got the work it would be continuous are 2 suppliers of ours - brutex, and casamance.

they're both fabric houses, but each time a new collection of fabrics and wall coverings come out, they get sample hangers and books, particularly with casamance books. these samples come in a folder, that has a logo and, (occasionally boring and old), funky design work all over the front.

these are the sort of places where money isn't important, but presentation is. they have in house designers etc etc but i'm sure a lot of the artwork is subcontracted out.

plus brutex also has a sister copmany that write computer programs for fabric houses all over the world, so if you got in with them, there's vector work for - artwork, programs and websites from nearly all their customers. it's an example of how you could basically leech someone elses client base.

hope this helps, or at least adds a spec of confidence that if you want to do it, there is a way and you can find it!!
