Bigfoot Cartoon Picture A really fun photography logo featuring none other than the elusive cartoon Bigfoot. Let me create one for you. Monkey Snot Logo It doesn't get much funner than creating a cartoon logo for a company called Monkey Snot Products! |
![]() Welcome to my cartooning website! Many of you have come looking for a specialized cartoonist to create your unique cartoon logo, character or illustration. Others have come searching for cartoon information and career tips, while others have come to snag a cartoon picture or two. Well, I mean to provide all of that and more. My website is full of creative cartoon logo samples, cartooning tips and all around cartoon stuff. In 1986 I graduated college with a Bachelors in Graphic Advertising Design. I left school with no idea of what I wanted to do and with zero knowledge of how to even turn on a computer. I jumped from job to job including silk screen printer, sign maker and layout artist. I finally landed a Director of Advertising position where I learned how to turn on a computer and plug a few numbers into DOS. From there I toyed with some new programs including Windows, Pagemaker and Corel Draw. All the while I was doing logo design on the side. After many years of learning things I was not taught in college I jumped from PC to Mac and quickly learned Photoshop and Illustrator. I also heard about this thing AOL was touting called the Internet. Around the late 90's I began to doodle with cartoons, greeting cards and the Internet. In 1998 I awoke and declared to my wife that I wanted to change careers to cartooning. I immediately began drawing gag cartoons and started mailing them to magazines. I traded a cartoon logo with a friend for his promise to build me a website that I would be able to display my cartoons on. I believed I could post my cartoons online and editors would gladly hop on and buy them from me. LOL! Of course that never happened but I did learn that there were cartoonists making money online from the traffic they garnered by drawing a daily cartoon. Banner ads were all the rage and everyone was making money. I knew instantly that was my calling! My friend was so swamped that he handed me a very clunky program and told me to build a site on my own. I accepted the challenge and built my first website. I quickly upgraded my software and eventually learned Dreamweaver. The cartooning community was perfect for link trading so I ended up with hundreds of links to my site. Traffic from search engines like AltaVista, HotBot, Lycos and Yahoo! kept the visitors coming to my site. I never made money with my cartoons or banner ads but because I created a portfolio page full of my cartoon designs I started getting requests for logo designs. I optimized my website for cartoon logo and character design and the rest is history. It wasn't long when a startup search engine called Google came along. From almost its beginning I was ranked #1 for cartoon logos and have been in that postion now for well over 10 years! My cartoon logo designing career went into full swing and I eventually quit my advertising job and began working from home for clients all over the world. I also began building a few more websites and learned a bit about SEO. About this point in time Google AdSense was in full swing and I had a few Google ads on my sites. I was making a whopping $2-$3 a day and thought I had finally found a way to at least cover my domain name and hosting costs. While reading Fortune magazine on the treadmill one day I read about two guys making $5000 a month with AdSense on their sites. A light bulb went off. I hurried home, added AdSense code to every page of every site I had at the time. Overnight I was making $15-$20 a day and it quickly increased every day. That led to an increase in my website making which led to more income. And I now have a successful AdSense business that I created with free information on the Internet, not buying one marketing guru book ever. Today, I split my time between creating cartoon designs for people and adding new content to my 100 websites, blogs and directories. I currently have moderately successful websites filled with cartoon clip art, royalty free characters, greeting cards and other useful information. I am mastering Wordpress and hope to increase my design speed and design quality. I still work from my home studio while helping cart around two beautiful daughters. My wife and I have a great life and I love helping clients create the coolest looking cartoon designs. Please let me know if I can help. I answer my own phone and 98% of the time do every aspect of each project. I look forward to hearing from you! My gallery of cool cartoon characters is located at Life'sACharacter.com. These are royalty free cartoons that can be used for a reasonable price. I retain the copyright and resell the images to others but you are free to use them for multiple purposes for one low fee. Check them out. And don't forget my collection of low and high resolution clip art at FreeClipArtPics.com. Be sure and stop by to see if I have the perfect cartoon picture you are searching for. |
