Replies Jon1138 Posted at 1:54 am on Aug. 20, 2008 Yes, my career is just like this as well. It's media related and job opportunities do not depend on college degrees whatsoever. Nobody even asks. They just want to see your work and that's what takes you somewhere. That and connections, of course. moonkin Posted at 1:37 am on Aug. 20, 2008 A side hobby of mine is web designing and for something like that I had a portfolio on site and also a deviantart profile All 2 previous replies displayed.
