Its that time again to cycle out the old and bring in the new, so the Department of Marketing is hiring!
SOO.... Are you handy with Photoshop, Illustrator, or really any graphics program? Then please apply! We're looking for more graphically-inclined folk to help with projects both large and small. Read on for more details. Terms last for 6 months, at which time you can choose to stay on the team or take a break. Projects come into the department all the time, and Graphics Team members can volunteer for whichever ones they like.
There may also be some MSPaint projects coming up so skill might not be retired, just creativity and willingness to try silly things.
If you have any questions about the position, the department, or other related things, please email marketing@tarvalon.net.

The Graphics Development Team is responsible for any and all official visual assets used on or in conjunction with TarValon.Net. These may include anything from logos, banners, icons, and web work to printed material, advertisements, and illustrations. We are looking for several people with a wide variety of visual/graphic design skills. Let us know what you have experience in, and what your preferences are for projects.
The Graphics Development Team sometimes collaborate with each other on various projects, so applicants should be able to work well with a team of designers.
Duties
- Create new visual assets for TarValon.Net (may be web-based or print-based)
- Update existing visual assets as necessary
- Offer critique on projects (be able to give and receive constructive criticism and feedback)
- Work with team members to brainstorm and troubleshoot ideas

- Must have been a member of TarValon.Net for at least 3 months. Any rank is okay.
- Active on the boards/in chat on a weekly basis, at least. Available to communicate about projects, without disappearing unexpectedly. LoAs are fine, of course, but we need a solid commitment to at least regular check-ins so we don't leave other departments hanging.
- Must be experienced in any or all of the following areas: graphic design, interactive design, typography, illustration, or visual arts. All applicants are asked to submit a portfolio of work with their application, either in the form of a personal website, Coroflot site, a Photobucket album, a DeviantArt account, or equivalent. If you have questions about this, please feel free to contact me.
- Must own some form of reliable graphic design software, such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, Paint Shop Pro, or other. (please specify)
- Must be able to work collaboratively in a team environment, and be able to give and receive constructive criticism from other team members.
- Must be able to work with a deadline.
- Bribes in the form of wine, cookies and other shinies accepted by the Director. I also like siggies and creative poetry.
