It's only outsourcing if you have a designer on your payroll. Otherwise, it's just hiring someone to do the job. Do I outsource my trash removal? No. I pay some grubby schmuck with an old pick-up truck to come once a week to empty my garbage cans into the Hudson river. When my car breaks down, do I oursource the repairs? No, I hire some greasy prick to overcharge me and fix the wrong fucking thing. But that's not outsourcing the work. Outsourcing, in the traditional sense, implies cutting costs by having some other firm do work that your own firm COULD do, but at a greater cost.

So the question is, do you hire a full time talented dedicated designer of your choosing to do all of your design work or do you contract one of those grahpic design sweat shops in Eastern Mongolia and hope to hell that some motherfucker amongst them can fit your project into their busy schedule of $5 blowjobs and $10 sucky-fuckies?
