you can't really be a self-proclaimed professional, because professional means you have a degree or are employed...or something

  Does that mean you have a degree just because I took out a splinter does that make me a doctor. The answer to that is a definite probably.

        That states nowhere that a degree is required

        That means, according to you, that no one running Napalm is a professional. You might not want to waste your time on a site which will obviously fail. Ya know, due to the lack of professionals.

        Amateurs produce a considerable amount of valuable content for everything. Just because your not technically a professional it doesn't mean you don't know what your doing. Infact this was an argument between Krissy and I on whether or not she was a Photoshop professional and everyone decided to stick their nose in and add their opinion. If your offended then I'm sorry because that wasn't my intention.

        You know, lets just strip it down to the base English.
        
        If a criminal is one who engages in a crime then English Language theory would suggest that a professional is one who engages in a profession.
        
        Does a mechanic without a degree mean he is just an amateur mechanic? How about a stylist? A race car driver? They're professionals, with or without degrees.
        
        So how is it any different here?

        But you're still wrong, you do not need a degree to be a professional and in case you hadn't noticed, it's quite offensive to suggest otherwise.
        
        Doctor is different, to be a doctor you do need a degree but the same does not apply to every profession.

Technically it means that you did the "profession" for money at one point. That's why you can't trust online ads that say an "accredited" sex professional endorsed their product. In reality that "sex professional" is a vendor of vaginally vectored advances. LOLS!!!

Worrying is about as effective as chewing gum to solve algebra

I'm not qualified to do anything except exist - I fail exams like you eat bread.

I would, however, like to think I'm reletively professional with things I put my mind to, like building PC's, and level design (No, you can't see them .. Well, maybe some of the CS maps), despite not having a degree in anything for it.

In my opinion - If you go for something with a professional attitude, and complete the task in a professional manner, and constantly repeat that, then you are a professional.

To quote a dictionary: A person who is expert at his or her work: You can tell by her comments that this editor is a real professional.
