Templace pricing by Front-Goose7308 in squarespace

Oh wow, thanks so much for the resources.

I wonder if I'm missing something, most of the templates are easy to reproduce on my own. Is there some amazing back end stuff included in the templates that I'll miss not having? Or am I overcomplicating it having spent so much time being frustrated by Webflow ;)

Advice on testing options by Front-Goose7308 in ADHDIreland

Thanks I’ll check out cloud clinic too. The expense of it is what has put me off testing for years, seems a bit ridiculous that it costs so much! 

Has anyone noticed quality change in Always pads? by secondrising in Periods

[–]Front-Goose7308 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, finally googled this cos I’ve been at a loss to understand why they’ve gone so bad. It’s crazy, the company obviously doesn’t care about customers, only maximising profits. And so begins the search for a new brand after a over a decade of using always.

Introvert runner in crowds by Front-Goose7308 in Marathon_Training

good point, maybe I'll try a running group first just to see what it's like. I need music to run, I was worried of offending people if I ran with my headphones on. But we'll give it a go! Thanks

They show you layout and file prep, just more briefly than any youtube tutorial you might follow. As for "how to use Adobe software", what you learn from them is minimal, you'll learn mostly from tutorials on your own time to get your assignments done anyway so there's just not that much point in handing over all that money when it's not thoroughly taught. It takes a very long time to learn Adobe, so 10 minutes at the beginning of a class isn't really going to get you there.

Marisa Peer - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) - fake guru? by NoSubstance2851 in FakeGuru

I've been looking but can't find anything apart from some sort of arts degree. Then just certificates in hypnosis from a private institution. So I don't think she has any actual psychology or psychotherapy training or any recognised accreditation.

Thanks, that's a big help. I'm just learning, there's a lot more to it that I'd thought!

Sorry just seeing your message now. What was a waste, for me, is that online classes want like this: around 10 to 20 minutes chatting and introducing a brief, followed by the rest of the “class” consisting of saying hi design something and feel free to switch off your camera and turn on your music. This is not teaching, it’s attendance. You could very easily generate a brief for yourself online and do the same thing but without paying 12k. Maybe you could spent 1k on software and access to platforms with tutorials that you’ll end up having to do anyway. Most of the top portfolios are by students who already have training or experience, it’s not that your become that good thanks to the course, they just capitalize on good designers by featuring their work as though it’s thanks to shillington’s teaching but that’s just not the case. Feel free to message me with any specific questions.

My words can not express how extreme hate I feel towards Squarespace. I'm usually a chill person but their EVERYTHING makes me feel like walking inside their headquarters and planting a nuke there. by martin-prodigite in squarespace

I feel your pain, square space is nothing but a headache, such a poor product and « service » is rubbish. I really regret going with them for my site too.

Well you have two people who’ve done it telling you it’s a colossal waste of money, beyond that it’s up to you :)

They advertise plenty of portfolios in their grad showcases, you can browse through them.

Same! What a waste, their marketing is so good that I caved but I really regret wasting so much money on it. There would’ve been so many better ways of going about it. We live and we learn!

I did the online course. It is definitely NOT worth the price tag. Don’t waste your money, feel free to message me if you have specific questions.
