Hey Michael-

I actually have a small business licensed with the state. Terra Firma Landscape Design belongs to me in Colorado. Long story short- before I went back to school at CSU I ran my own design/build and made very good money. I did EVERYTHING from design/estimates to irrigation from scratch including water/meter taps, trenching, tree…[Read more]

very good idea 🙂 cheers to all!

Cool idea for a group… i also have some time left before I graduate but ive been attempting to learn more about the profession this summer by starting a temporary landscape business around town. Learning how to quote clients with a price for a variety of small installation jobs has helped me gain a better understanding of how much money is…[Read more]

nick – thanks for the invite – this a great idea.

things are picking up at the office – this thing is turning around. spirit/moral is pretty low – no raises or bonuses this year.

take the opportunity to go see great spaces/places and some of those great perspective sketches you do. you know as soon as you get that job you will never find the…[Read more]

What a great opportunity to gain valuable feedback and make connections in our field. Thanks for the invite Nick – good idea!

Thankfully, I still have a year left of school 🙂 So.. I guess I’ll start worrying in about 11 months.

First off, what the heck are y’all doing with your time? A month or so out of school and my brain is turning to mush.

Discuss group, make suggestions, and advertise your services here

Here’s an article that some of you may find interesting, about what they are saying is the first “universally accessible” playground. I have a feeling it’s not the first, but it’s still perhaps a good example, anyway. Anyone down in FL want to visit and report back to us? http://tinyurl.com/mp4x6t.

Hey Brian!

I too amm looking for a Landscape Design position in NYC. I’m into urban design and planning but will also work residential and commerical. I’m basically open to the public and private realm, I would like to make something happen soon.

Any suggestions?

hi, i’d been trying to blend hand drawing with computer, and i think i got a really good renderings. after i apply style in sketchup, i draw the vegetation by hands and put it on top in photoshop. when i Apply color in photoshop, i use the wet brushes. So check my renderings and if you like I can give you more tips.

I like your stuff Bob, I would like to see it a bit bigger.

Aaron-

Are you talking about getting pics up onto this group discussion or onto your folio? I always use the ‘simple uploader’ when uploading to my folio, I find it less glitchey as you mentioned. For posting here, just hit the camera button above and make sure you image is in an acceptable format (jpeg) and 72-150 dpi and less than about 500…[Read more]

I’m still getting an X when I upload. I’m finding this site very glitchy. Slow uploads, freezing up, inability to close down, etc.. Anyone else having these issues? How can I get my darn pics up??

sucess… thank you Nick, we may be able to go a little wider but these settings are much better… now we can post some images and give some better feedback.

Here is my test to see if the settings sugested will work, 400 pix wide and 100dpi

I think if you size the width of your images to about 400pixels wide that should fit just right, also you (everyone) should do everyone else a favor and keep your dpi under 150…more like 100 or even 72 to avoid sluggish scrolling.

Again why do some of the images get stretched out while others look fine… I am guessing that there is some kind of ideal image size for the group walls, does anybody know what that size limit is so that we can actually see what people are posting? Vladimir’s images are all stretched out while right below his Nick’s look perfect, is any one else…[Read more]
