    Hi Rob,

    Just a short note to say I’m liking your latest blog design / layout. Much more ‘roomy’ than the last time I visited (which was too long ago).

    I hope all’s well with you.

    Hi David,

    You’re always very welcome!

    I have to say that I’ve used your blog as a “yardstick” to compare mine to. I’ll always keep an eye on what you’re up to because there’s a lot for me to learn.

    Yes, I like the fact that it’s airy, David :)
    And I like that I can get a 600 px wide image on the page!

    I’m just fine, thanks, hope you’re keeping well!

    Impressive client portfolio. Let me know if you ever need any help! Likewise, if I am lucky enough to get some big clients, I will be knocking on your door.

    Big clients can be great, Pam, but I like working for small clients as well! :)

    Hi, Rob
    I’m from Indonesia, It’s pleasure visiting your web page. But by the way is this a blog or your own website address?

  7. Rob Cubbon, on June 11th, 2008 at 11:31 pm, said:

    Hi Taufiq, thanks for visiting. This my main website which is powered by WordPress the blogging platform but I try to make it not like a blog. I hope that answers your question.

    The covers for think tank are very impressive. I liked it the most. However, all worthy of attention. Thank you.

    I like your examples of work and it looks like you have some nice clients under your belt.

    Are you in need of a decent print company to make the best of your designs?

    If so please drop me a line, be good to hear from you.

    cheers and best regards,

    Hi Rob,
    Love the website! I stumbled across this whilst randomly searching for inspiration and ideas.

    I like your style of design, it has a very clean cut and punchy edge to it and your message never gets lost in the visuals (so many go overboard with their designs – yours have perfect balance). I hope to be as good as you in the future as my career is jut starting out (I left a career in Engineering to become a full-time print designer!)

  24. Rob Cubbon, on February 22nd, 2009 at 12:56 pm, said:

    Hi Nathaniel,
    Thank you for your encouraging comments and I wish you all the best in your chosen career. I must say that I’m mostly getting web work at the moment although I love doing print jobs. This maybe because of the state of the economy so I would recommend that you keep improving your web skills just as you keep improving your print design skills!

    A fine arts graduate, have experience in designing and Publishing Operations.
    Could you help me in getting some freelance work in print designing.

  26. Rob Cubbon, on April 14th, 2009 at 10:09 am, said:

    Hello Sanjay Malhotra, it’s difficult when you are first starting out. But there are several things you can do to stand out from the crowd. The first thing to do is to start your own website. Follow that link to learn how to do it and then follow the rest of my self-marketing series in order to learn more about web publishing.

    Then, of course, you need to exhibit on your site some examples of your work. If you are short of these you should simply make up some design work for yourself and do it or work for free for friends or charities.
