How dare you get a job that actually pays you money, thereby taking time away from theming!!!

If you could stop thinking of yourself for a change, and think about all the people you are screwing out of frequent beautiful, fantastic, incredible themes it would be great.

You selfish bastard, you!


























Good luck!

For those of you who have no idea what's going on, from max's site (http://www.maxthemes.com/):

As some of you might know, I've been looking for a job for about a year now with very little luck. But now I've gotten an oppertunity to get work experience at the Marmalade Moon/Iconfactory studio in Stockholm and I started to work there yesterday as a production assistant. My first project is to make a freeware iconset, so if it all goes well you will hopefully see that sometime in the future. What this means is that I don't have as much time to work on themes as I've had for the past year, but I'm still taking my time to work on NickelCobalt. Paul has started to work on more on the buttons btw, so it has progressed a bit. So that's what's up.

I think Marmalade Moon could do with a shot of his talent
Has anyone seen their icons n' stuff.

Looks like he's going to be surrounded by
mooning 'ladies' covered in marmalade making
iconic flowers for a while.

Nice work if you can get it.

Max must have been fairly unselfish during the period he has spitting out his themes. I just can imagine how much work there has to been. Certainly long days and long nights for that kind of awesome work.
I wish him a good job because I know how hard it can be in the computer industry in Sweden. With the key in his hands it seems to have been profitable. His themes has after all given him good publicity. And now we see the result - a job. It�s a smart way to find a job in my opinion. Especially in his industry.

Lycka till Max! ;-)

If anyone deserves a good job it's Max. Honestly, Apple should have hired him to work on Aqua, but eh, a job's a job.

Good Luck

Hey, thanks everybody
I just need to clarify that's it's not actually a real job, I'm working there as an intern for four months to get some work experience. I think I wrote my news post a bit sloppy, but that's what I ment to say. So I'm not getting a salary, but I'm really happy that I'm finally doing something. And it's a great place to learn new skills!

That's amusing, They should be paying you
for your design consultancy expertise.

- Try emailing 'k10k.net' and telling them you
need some fee paying work in sweden,
they have lots of connections in scandinavia
and are mostly OSX junkies.
( mschmidt or token )

They consider helping talented individuals like
yourself out a bit of a bonus.
