Can anyone point me in the direction for a graphics exchange site?

I'm after getting a few graphics made for a website.

Mods: No idea where this goes!

What sort of Graphics?

Images, Banners, Logos, Animation?
Banners and a few small graphics for a forum (new posts icons etc)

If you email me a Brief (fairly specific) I will let you know if I have the time... or skills... wink
Thats just it. I'm after people to submit work, and I can chose the one I like. As opposed to me knowing exactly what I want.

I'll email something anyway...

Probably quite good if you want to get a lot of different designs to look at.

Ah, right I see.

I would imagine for this low level of work you would be hard pushed to get people to pitch for your work. Unless you are prepared to pay for initial stage developments.

IMHO you would do well to go to your local college and have a word as students will do anything for cash hehe
I'm on a techie forum, and it happens. Teenagers earning some money to do some basic work. But no one has responded, so figured I'd try else where.

Haha you get what you pay for with graphic design and the quality of a lot of the stuff on 99Designs is questionable.

I think you're best bet would be to approach a local college, they may even be able to work it in to their coursework or something like that. That would probably be significantly cheaper. The company I am working for have done a similar thing for someone's final year project at Uni, they get to do some work for a large company and we get free stuff made(cant quite remember what they were doing for it).

I've used Fotolia in the past. You can pay to use the image or more to take control of it.

Yep - absolute legend in our studio at work.
That page gets banged out to anyone wanting a 'quick job knocked out on the sly'.
