You are so right, I haven`t been practicing for a long time and
I am at a logo/design contest site now, and I have enough idears
but others pinch them, and I have to say, most of the time theirs
looks better, but they still pinched my idears, I think I give that site a rest.
Still a great place to go and get some idears just for doodling, I just won`t post them anymore, let them get their own idears.
They might have the skills, just not the vision.
