Site Graphics Design in exchange for free advertising

[photocroatia]

Out of curiosity would Graphic Designers work in exchange for Advertising.

What my problem is I am not graphically inclined, I have started a new website which is called from the front page of my original website (which is very popular)

What I was hoping for is that I offer on my site the oportunity for a Graphics designer to come up with a "header" design for my site in exchange he/she could add a link to their own website.

Is this something that people would go for.

Tahnk you.

Unless your site is popular with people who hire graphic designers I would say it is probably not a good deal for the designer. There are lots of people out there that might take the deal, but remember, you get what you pay for. A good graphic designer is worth every penny they charge.

Of course I agree with monkeythumpa, but to add to it: If I make some graphics for someone, it goes without saying that I am credited with that work on their site, as well as getting paid for it. It seems a bit "smoke and mirrors" to offer a link/creditation for payment. However, if you know what you want in the way of graphics, this is the best place to get someone to spell out how to make them.
