For instance, you can easily get a wicked banner done for under twenty bucks. How long would it take you to learn how to properly use Photoshop? Hours, I would imagine. And even then...lol.
This is so true. It will likely take longer to learn photoshop properly then for someone else to just make the graphics for you. And when you think of people paying thousands and thousands for sales copy, paying $20 for graphics seems like a bargain, and it is!
