I've been quiet recently, here's why; I quit my job. I decided to go back to being a full-time freelance UI designer. Not because I wasn't enjoying my job but because I enjoy being self-employed more. Already I have met some great people and many other opportunities have opened up.
I've been spending the past couple of weeks planning and wireframing for several projects. Exciting things to come!
I just dropped out of college to do my own design thing full-time as well. Best decision of my life. I think we both have a bright future in front of us by the looks of your portfolio!
@Matt: Good move, Matt. I went to college for 2 years but I hated it, didn't learn much and decided not to go to Uni. I started writing a job about being a young designer, it's no where near finished but: Junior Design Jobs.

Good on ya Callum just wondering...what size is your pad? Suspect it's a4 but looks larger in the pic :s

those pads are the greatest thing on earth, since pixel perfection, ice cold coke, and squatting.
Congrats, and I hope the future brings you nothing but happiness :).

@Robert: It's A4-ish ;) It's a bit wider than A4 and a little shorter. :)

Oh by the way everyone, I'm looking in at getting some dot grid notepads of my own made. Who'd be interested in purchasing?

I would, although guessing its Oz only?

Nope, I'd ship worldwide - they're likely to be printed in the UK actually, so I'd stock some there.
