What is the best Web Design book to learn from?

Posted by admin on March 15th, 2011 and filed under web design | 5 Comments »

If the answer is multiple then list the best ones you know. I’m not looking to learn quick, and I know how "easy" it is to learn from the internet but I am a lot more comfortable learning from a text book and plan on putting my heart and soul into this. I’m currently majoring in web design and kinda want my own bible of webdesign to reference. I’m looking for anything that explains dhtml or the general design rules of websites. Thank everyone in advance! I truly appreciate it.

The "for dummies" are normally good books for starting off, try web design for dummies

I want to start an online Graphic and Web design business. How can i make sure that my clients do not steal the designs i do for them, Thanks!

Before the sale of any logo/graphic/website is finalized, have a watermark or faint text that says "Copyright of _______) all the way across the design. This allows customers to view the design but cannot just copy it. When the sale is finalized remove the copyright mark.

I have an opportunity to apprentice as a locksmith, but I would still like to teach myself web design and development in my free time, which is what I was going to go to school for before deciding to become a locksmith. I would like to get very good at web design and development. I would like to be good enough to create professional looking forum sites and if possible, even a website like Facebook.

Um… What? I am a programmer and an artist. I’ve been programming since I was in my early teens, a senior Computer Science student, and I can make photo realistic drawings/paintings either by hand or in photoshop. I am also top of my class in Computer Science.

So, uhh… I would want to rethink your whole post there, if I were you. I do not think I am anywhere near Leonardo da Vinci, but thank you for the indirect compliment.

What’s digital design?

What’s web design?

digital design is the creation design for viewing purposes on the computer or for print.
web design is the creation of graphics to be incorporated onto a site..
for instance, yahoo is web design, someone created buttons, logos, gradient tables, etc.. and then they incorporated the process of html, asp, javascript, and so forth so you may navigate thru their site.

they are similar in the overall design concept, only web design is more focused on making a site look pretty then coding it for usage.

i would recommend googling more info, or talking to the school/instructors to get more In Depth details about the courses…

What are some good books for a print designer looking to move to web design?

Posted by admin on January 15th, 2011 and filed under web design | 5 Comments »

I am a 15+ year veteran of print design. I dabbled in some web design and simple HTML programming, GoLive, etc. in the past; however, between having on-site programmers and transitioning to a position with no web design opportunities, the technology has eclipsed me. I am looking to delve back into web design & programming on a freelance basis and I am wondering if there are any good books out there to get me started. Anything from design fundamentals to basics of programming would be fantastic.

I would recommend checking out the books available at sitepoint ( http://sitepoint.com ) – they have a lot of good resources available for web design. If you’re also looking to showcase your skill you might want to try getting a certification in web design. logiczap ( http://logiczap.com ) provides certifications in html, css and php. Whatever route you choose I wish you good luck!

What is the best way to learn web design?

Posted by admin on December 13th, 2010 and filed under web design | 4 Comments »

I am really interested in web design and have made several basic pages on my own. I want to reach the next level and try to get closer to becoming a professional web developer. Are there any options other than enrolling in full-time classes? I wouldn’t mind taking online classes if any good ones are available.

I highly recommend this book for learning how to build websites.

http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-HTML-CSS-XHTML/dp/059610197X

It teaches you the right way to build websites (using HTML and CSS), but also does not bore you. It also has a sense of humor and entertainment value, and purposeful repetition to help you learn.

I think a normal person can read this in one weekend, and that’s just about the best way to learn how to build websites.
