Hmmm... not going to get very far with these types of posts, I'm afraid. Like Jesse so very simply stated, post a little bit more about yourself. Maybe try doing that FIRST.

Also, very little experience isn't really going to get you a job (free or otherwise). You might want to start learning on your own first. Learn a few things, and put them on a "resume" of sorts. Let people know what you can do.

Although he was blunt about it, David is right. Spell checking, and proper grammar would help you appear more professional. You should start there.

Then, how about some books. There are plenty of books on programming, 3D modeling, Photoshop, you name it. There are even books geared specifically towards making games. Look for some of those, and start reading!

When I was your age I was up to my ear with modding stuff or using finished game engines to do my games, anyone remember the 3d building kit or something for amiga where you could make these very primitive 3d games? Those were the days hehe.

Connor no one can use someone who doesn't know anything. there are very few real tasks in game development which require no skills or knowledge. once youve started learning some skill, 3d modeling, textures, programming, etc. then you may become useful to someone.

also, you don't necessarily need to purchase actual books. theres a wealth of resources and tutorials on game design on the internet. let google be your resource.
