  1. Stock photos everywhere… for a non content post.

    This blog isn’t anymore what it used to be

    1. Hi Jesus. Naldz Graphics is still the same site as it was years ago. Only that we had done some improvements for the site and we have decided to cover other areas where designers are also interested in. That includes freelancing since most designers are actually freelancers. We still retained lists of design inspirations as well as freebie design resources and tutorials. This post falls under freelancing and is certainly part of the site’s contents. We have freelance design tips regularly. Pertaining to the stock photos, we use it to add appeal since this is a design site. Thanks for dropping by Jesus!

  2. Non-content post? Well, I guess this is helpful. A good office can really boost one’s business especially when you are into a design business. It is actually true to any type of business. Stock photos? All the other blogs make use of this! No big deal. For me, Naldz Graphics is doing great and they are improving more and more…Keep it up guys!

  3. I don’t feel like this article deserved to be the most popular this month. The quality was average and, as Jesus said, there was far too many stock images. When you compare the quality of this article to that of Smashing Magazine or 1st Web Designer, it gets left behind. Please don’t think I am trying to troll the site or make anyone feel bad. I’m not. But you told me it was my turn to voice my honest opinion and I am doing so. I hardly ever leave comments that aren’t positive, but chose to today. I wish you all the best.

    1. Hi Maria. We respect your opinion. We agree with you about your point regarding the articles of Smashing Magazine and 1st Web Designer. Their site is way bigger than ours and they really have interesting articles but we are not trying to imitate their style or be labeled equal to them. We are trying to establish our own brand. But we are also eyeing for more improvement in our posts this year. We’ll take note of your comment. Thanks.

  4. This is such a great article which explains a lot about the importance of a good design on a business. I find the article really helpful. Thank you for sharing.
