I strongly recommend this internship at AOL living. I was paid(very well), got school credit, and learned what I need to do to work in the field. This is the BEST INTERNSHIP if you are passionate about the Internet(what's going on there), and your skill is in graphic design (and CSS). Best way to combine your passion and your talent.

At first I got small projects such as small fixes in the design and header designs, but later on, I got to work on full page designs and research for future products which broadened my perspectives. (you're never asked to xerox lol). Technique wise I got CSS trainings from the famous Zen Garden creator, Molly, but more than that, learned a lot from other coworkers - the way great designers work, great ideas etc.

Plus, you get chances to meet AOL executives (usually with food ;) ) and hear about their leadership principles.

The place is located in the center of New York - you can have nice quality time during lunch break. Plus you get some perks, too! ;)
