Hello

I don't think I make many of your requirements but I'm prepared to work for food and free kit. I learn fast and have my own felt tips.

could this be turned into an impromptu windsurfing design comp?
you might even convince somebody to offer a cheap prize . we could at least get some laughs out of it

Reminds me of on Happy Days, when Fonzie lost his dog, the police ask him to describe what it looked like. He said "I can do better than that, I'll draw you a picture!"........

Did you really draw that Ginger? I think you cheated and just traced over your avatar pic.

No derrr he obviously used one of those graphic design program things you can get for the puter, like Photowizard or Picturepaint or whatever it is called.
You can see he used one, cos he traced his avatar then it is reversed like a mirror image.
Also he must of scanned it or something to get it loaded into the pornbox, and then used the interweb to load it up to the web.
I think he is highly qualitifed

Yeah, just what I said but with fewer words!

Retains the brilliance of the original design while answering the three most asked questions, thus allowing you to rig more quickly.

What a great oppertunity for a young Designer who is into Windsurfing. There are some really talented young people out there, so go for it Guy's and Gals.

I would apply myself but it would mean having to pack up the family and moving somewhere warm and windy.

Get the family into sailboarding and they'll be keen to go!

Someone else must be able to do a design...?

Someone should alert Red Jimmy. This Severne job sounds like it's right up his alley.

I don't have his number or I would call him myself.

buster and richifish should have a Microsoft PAINT-OFF

this probably counts as child labour, but for only a TWIX each my girls produced these quality graphic designs. when do they start fulltime Ben

It seems everyone has pretty much settled on "Severne Sails Are Good" as the slogan for 2011.

Yeah..I like it
