Hi, I was kinda wonderin' how come I've used up all of my connects in submitting my proposals and never get to receive any client notice? Although, my notification shows mostly declined proposals and here I am still waiting for them to at least reply. Some clients, even with verified payments seems to leave us hanging online even if we consistently making follow ups about their job posts. How does UPWORK help us on that?

character design, illustrations and graphic design, i'm more illustration oriented and less on editing photos wich i dont really like.
I also strated a bit with animation.. but it takes time and patience... what is your level in animation?
Mar 22, 2017 02:13:50 PM by Shahrukh E
Nice, yeah I am not a fan of editing photos either. I do some work in animation, I have good knowledge in it but my level in animation is to be judged by someone who isn't me.

Hi everyone,
I'm María, from Spain, so sorry for my English 🙂
I'm Flash animator, colorist and also work with vector images.
I think it's a good idea to have a specialized forum. I hope that more people join.

Hi Sodiq,
Wellcome to Upwork.
First of all, you need to complete your profile and add a real photo of you.
I would also recommend that you take care of the writing in English, I am not English speaker and I make many mistakes but I try to use capital letters, punctuation marks and I usually review the written with some translator to detect the faults (at least the most serious).
Sorry but I read your post and I can not understand half of it.
If you check the different threads on how to start in Upwork, you will find a lot of help.
Good luck and see you around 🙂
Maria

Thank you!

I am patient and working hard... some day... for sure I will start 😉
That is advice for everyone I think ... just to be patient.
The beginning is always difficult. 😉

Hi Erick,
Welcome.
There is one thing that strikes me in your description, is that it is written in the third person.
I think you should personalize it. You talking about yourself and what you do and can offer.
On the other hand, good work.
María

Hi Maria,
Thank you for your suggestion. I've never thought of that. I've edited it to be more personal.
Regards,
Erick S.

Better, much better
But...
If you review other forums, you will see that the people who usually advise (very well indeed), always say the same. Do not spend the first sentence on giving information that is already available, because those first few lines are important. It is the first thing that the client reads and it is very possible that he will not pass from there.
Do not repeat your name and where you are from.
I would remove that first sentence.

Hey Guys,
Good to have this topic. I'm an older member of the previously Elance and now on Upwork, but this is my first reply in the forums. 🙂
I'm specialized in 3d graphics and design. As a hobby or if it is not so serious work I like to design cars or products, have experience in 3d printing as well, but I prefer to make photoreal illustrations for start-ups or for other companies.
Recently I found several job posting where clients looking for a CAD engineer who can also create photoreal illustrations 😄 I'd like to be such a superhero...
