I prefer actual sites and applications that have gone through design rigor and are used by real people. Behance and similar sites are really just fiction.

I find Pinterest & other designer or agency sites are good for inspiration. Back in the olden days I use to go to Barnes & Noble & study design books & magazines. Thankful for technology. Now I can do it from my couch, chair or even bed if I want!

Do you just want design inspo/direction in general or are you looking for design prompts for a particular discipline (I.e, instructional, graphic, set, interior, etc)?

Always keep coming back to my dark mistriss Pinterest

I started a full time in-house design job that pays extremely well. I barely have to work at all. This makes me very confused since I kept hearing stories of people working 60+ hr weeks as designers at ad agencies. I am not complaining, but I have this creeping irrational feeling that I’ll get fired for not working even though there’s nothing for me to do. Should i be making up projects or asking for more work? Or just chill out? I just feel very confused. Are a lot of full time jobs like this?
