Possibly in January, certainly the new year. It's all a bit vague hence the vague post. It will be a lot of fun, great experience working on exciting projects for people you've heard of, there will be tea making and it will be hard work.
You'll get paid reasonable travel and a little bit else, but not much.You know, it will be good fun.
Now, here's the tricky bit. The only way to apply is leave a link to your site below in the comments. I'll take a look and get in touch with the people I think will fit. The bonus is that everyone else sees your site too.
trying and ready to fail.

Oh MAN !!!
I'm gonna get my portfolio up and running again....
Posted by: Tom | Dec 11, 2008 at 14:23
My website isn't particularly graphic design focused, but hopefully it's pretty representative of how I think and what I'm interested in. Fingers crossed...

I'm currently doing my PhD, so a long-term internship is out (for me), but I am looking for shorter work experience projects, so....

mmm - no deadline really.
Posted by: Ben | Dec 11, 2008 at 21:27
I'm not interested, but I would just like to say that I'm having fun watching the portfolios! There's some good stuff in there.

Honestly, I've got to ask, where exactly is the Spare Time Shop? I seem to be constantly running out of it. It would appear to me that half of the porn-free internet couldn't possibly exist without workplace internet access related abuses taking place!

If there's gonna be an actual Noisy Decent Graphics meeting by the end of July we'll meet there. I'm proud to put my website here almost two years after the publishing of the post.
The website is quite new, so most of stuff is still packed in boxes, but I think it looks pretty nice.
