I do a lot of stuff on the internet. All day long in fact.
Sometimes I take a risk and order something or use a service and pay hoping that I will get something decent back. This week alone I had to let go one writer who started off well, promising the earth but as time went on he started to submit stuff late and of low quality.
Yesterday I used a cool site called Fiverr.com where for $5 you can get lots of cool stuff done for five bucks. One guy offered to draw a characture of you for $5 if you send a picture. The problem was the disconnect between the icon he uses which suggests he can draw and what he actually drew.
Image from his profile:
And what he drew:
If you want to hire the guy here is his link – http://www.fiverr.com/users/halfriver and you too can look like you have been drawn by a four year old.
It was only $5 but I had to laugh when the guy told me that the icon for his profile was just a random one he picked up from somewhere and not his actual drawings!
