Graphicriver is definitely next in line for the bundle but i’m not to sure if that will happen to soon. Last bundle was last month so i guess the next one should be in a couple of months.

The last bundles had at least 2 months between them:

Wordpress pack – Oct 13th

Ultimate Flash OOP Bundle – Dec 6th

Cinematic Bundle – Mar 7th

Yeah good pickup Pixelcloth, well….lets just sit around, twiddle out fingers and wait! Any bundle is always awesome, great value

Speaking of bundles, I think its time for Envato to hit up a GR bundle!

true true

Yeah, I would like to hear how peoples business card sales are going after this rise. I might start monitoring a few. Though, I kinda don’t understand why other print templates haven’t seen a price rise, would be great to hear a logical explanation from someone about this.

Professionals do not work for free (unless it’s for a good cause!).

People tend to go to places like that when they’re first starting out to build confidence, skills etc. Once you get good enough and confident in your abilities – then you expect to get paid for your work. This is not an unfair assumption.

These types of sites are not built for the designers, they are built for cheap buyers. What do you think would happen if you wanted a house built and you went to 10 different architects to design the house but would only pay the one you then chose to use (if any at all)? They’d tell you to get stuffed!

So whilst it is sort of ok if you see it as a learning tool, it is not a valid way to work as a professional. If you think you have any sort of talent whatsoever, then you should value your time.

If you don’t value your time, then you actually devalue the rest of the industry – because you’re letting clients think that it’s ok to expect us to work for nothing.

Well said sir!
