I do design website sometimes as a guided service if the subject matter is of keen interest to me. So, if you are having hard times on web designing and development, don't forget, Helping hands are there all around.
The creative mind has always something to give to the society. I suggest to workout your mind and let your creative ideas and superb imagination comethrough. Find the ways and medium to interpret them. For me, Graphics & Design is one of them.
