Hey Everybody.
Most of you know me from my writing here. But when I'm not blogging, or doing my day job I'm also a freelance web/graphic designer. I designed this blog as well as my official website ABenjaminIrby.com (which needs a total overhaul).
My web design company is called One Hundred Dollar Web Design (OHDWD.com) as some of you know it was featured on BET back in July. The video of my segment is available on the website. That website and my whole company is getting an overhaul soon. I'm changing the name and everything. Stay tuned.
Mr. Man, my ex-boyfriend got me hooked up with doing some of the club websites here in New York. Here's some of my most recent work:
Both of those club websites are current and throw parties regularly. Check them out whenever you're in the NYC area.
Since the BET thing I get A LOT of emails from people requesting my services. I'm only one person so there's no way I could possibly do all of that stuff. Because I consider myself an artist in a lot of ways I don't take on any projects that I don't have a good feeling about or a connection to. To work on something that you have no connection to is just that, work. It becomes a chore, a job, ugh. I'm good, I already have a job, I only design for fun and extra spending money. So for that reason I have to be really selective about what projects I take on.
Lately I haven't been taking on anything because I've poured all of my energy into my writing. Writing comes first for me. But some new projects have come along that are making me reconsider the sabbatical I've been on for the past few months and the extra money would come in handy. Like I said in this post, I'm using my jobs to finance my passion. May the force NOT be with you.

Hey Adam,
You do pretty good work. I saw the one picture on the Men are from Mars site, dude had his right leg behind his head, sucking his own dick. I was like damn. I've tried to put my legs behind my head, but I'm not that flexible (TMI, I know, lol).
Damn!! Those look sooo good!! You realy are uber talented!
And, I think someone might be really loving his "Blackout" album...LMFAO!!!

You are a Renaissance Man in so many ways! I will say nothing more. Talent is Talent and you have it, brother.
