If you have an eye for it, that could be parlayed into a web design job or something. I do alright at web design, but much prefer the concrete logic of the code behind it. When a client says "make me something pretty!" I usually end up building something geared more towards being usable, then get a hundred changes for beautification. Evidently my idea of usability isn't one size fits all, but I've gotten better at it laugh out loud
I tried like five times, and I could NOT finish reading that post. It was like Bigeye

Technical writing is a pretty narrow field.
I have a young friend who did technical writing. She's actually in decent demand.

Mostly because many developers can't string together more than three coherent words.
