Reply:That's such an individual thing. Appearance is always the most difficult for me because I'm not artistic. Development has never been a problem for me - applications, systems, web sites - they're all fun to develop.

How long would it take to learn Web Design?
Is it difficult to learn, do you need to be a good artist to do it and are there alot of jobs availible for web designer today?
How long would it take to learn Web Design?
If you are talking about just websites, the programming part is a piece of cake. The difficult part is how to make the website itself. I mean, the layout, what is needed and what not, graphics, flow control etc..
There are lots of companies dedicated to web designing. It does not only mean websites, but also web applications, things like yahoo messenger. Sure, there are lots of jobs available nowadays
Reply:It really depends on how fast of a learner you are, I personally don't think it is difficult, but keeping up with the new technology is.. you always need to learn new things.
Can you make good living? It depends on what you consider good living, you won't be making 100k a year unless you run a company that takes big projects. Although it is much easier for people to build their own websites now but I think as long as you are updating yourself web design and programming will never fade away. People are paying to update their myspace profile.
As far as being good artist, well yeah because if you want to be a good designer you have to have the talent, but some people will buy anything... you can always work the programming side to it... you don't need to be so creative.
Reply:it is simply depend on you.You can get help at anytimes from an expert at
http://webdesignehelp.in/
Reply:the are lots of jobs and to learn it and get a good job liek 100,000 a year you need at least a 4 year degree just to get interviewed i only have took one coarse and i know its not hard but unless you are very good with computer then you will hate it and proably not learn it . its rather in depth sooo by the sounds of it of you just asking in the first place instead of trying then i would not try it.
but any thing you really want to do you can do it . also you have to be able to vision what people want and keep the design in your head. and be able to do it i have done some pages if you have any further questions like some examples of codeing and program to help design then feel free to ask

Can Web-Design be considered an art?
I have a portfolio to fill out in my art class, but the teacher told me that web-designing is not an art and would not let me do it unless I can convince her otherwise. Does anyone have any suggestions to help me convince this teacher and prove to her that web-design really is an art form? Thanks for your help!
Can Web-Design be considered an art?
Anything can be art if an artist presents it in an art context. A more interesting question is whether or not it's good art.
Art usually involves some design, so web art usually involves some web design. But that doesn't mean that art is usually nothing more than design.
Concepts are widely considered to be much more important than design. A website can have a strong concept just as well as any other artform, but few do.
If you present your web design as art, then you'll need to stand behind the work conceptually, which is to say you must be confident that the work has been rigorously developed to the tune of your specific concept, whatever it may be.
And if you want your teacher to accept your concepts, you'll need to make sure that they stand on their own in the context of Art History.
My advice is to begin by studying the ten-year history of web art (also search for net.art), and considering how your work fits into its lineage. Then go on and write your artist's statement. It's a great way to articulate your thoughts and motivations, while explaining to people (like your teacher) the concepts behind your work. Good luck.
Reply:Why would you want to be in an art class taught by such an idiot? Like the moron who gave the first answer to this question, your teacher is obviously confusing the tool (the web design software) with the creator. That's like telling a painter "No those portraits aren't really art, because you didn't do it - your brushes and paints did."
You are using your imagination and creativity, you are making design decisions, and you are combining elements to create something new. Duh!
Reply:check linkdup.com maybe you can find something there to convince her
Reply:i dont think it is really an art
web design is just really the computer generating color schemes, textures, patterns etc.
art is by YOU
not by a computer or the person behind the computer
but because technology today is making art easy, anybody can do it in less time
art takes patience, experience of fashioned equipment, and your mind
the computer just gives you generic styles that are boring
Reply:Your teacher is very traditionalist!
In my opinion, Web-desig is an art, since it involves so many creative processes and it is, after all, visually attractive.
I'd say that when humans take something useful and make it into something beautiful, then we have a piece of art (something that satisfy your aesthetic needs).
Besides, web-design is a part of our society as much as oils were a part of, let's say, 18 c. society, so, doesn't that says a lot about art? Art should reflect the way society changes and evolves.
Now, I haven't seen your web sites, but if you can combine functionality with beauty (and make a statement at the same time), then you should be allowed to include them in your portfolio.
Who knows? You might be the representative of a new generation of e-artists.
Tell your teacher that in the same way chair-design or coffee mugs design have achieved popularity, and are considered forms of art, web-design should be given an opportunity.
But remember, don't push too hard. Sometimes art teachers forget what is like to question tags.
Good luck!
Reply:I think that , everything could be "ART" with two thing : first, Knowledge.... second, creativity.
Reply:Web design is just 1 of many forms of art.
Dictionary.com defines art as: the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance.
Web design falls into that category just as well as sculpture, painting, woodwork/carving, etc.
Just because it is a computer generated medium does not negate it's creative or artistic qualities.
Refer to deviantart.com. You cannot tell me that the people that create those images are not artists. I've created images that took weeks to months to get it the way I want it. I created the images using the computer, not vice versa.
Reply:Web design is advertising - and advertising is most certainly an art form and has been for centuries. How does she think Norman Rockwell became famous? He painted magazine covers (that's an old-fashioned pre-internet webpage, in my opinion). Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven painters were nearly all advertising (graphic) designers.
Graphic Design and Advertising Design are diploma-earning art courses. Whew - sounds like I'm trying to convince my mother (again) that someone can make a living at art...

What is your recommendation for good web design software that would be used to start a business website?
dreamweaver........
i think thats what its called........
What is your recommendation for good web design software that would be used to start a business website?
If you're empty pocketed, use Kompozer (which is the bug free version of NVU). It works rather well, I've worked with it. It's not very good in supporting php though.
Aptana is also a very interesting free website designer, geared towards web 2.0 and Ajax. I haven't used it, but there are many good reviews about it.
If you're doing this for a business where you can pay for it ($399), of course you have to go with Adobe dreamweaver. it's unsurpassed, way better than Microsoft tools.

Best languages to learn to get into web design?
Obviously, HTML is the basis of pretty much all programming, not just web design, but after HTML, what is the best to learn after that to further focus on web design?
Thanks
Best languages to learn to get into web design?
Depends on how advanced you want to get, theres all sort of things based on the design of the site. For dtabases, theres PHP and SQL, also for interactive sites, you have DHTML, XHTML, JAVA, and ASP.net to name a few. Those are probably the most common you will see, but try to focus on one at a time, and you can also get certifications to help yourself in the careerer field.
Reply:PHP .. but java is pretty popular now
Reply:PHP/MySQL
Java
ASP if you want to go that way but pretty much everything can be done in PHP
Reply:It really depends on what you want to do with your web page.
There are numerous programming languages available, and each one has a different purpose, like a took box with many different tools.
"If all you have in your tool box is a hammer, then after awhile, everything looks like a nail."
Cold Fusion is good for presenting data from a database.
Java has it's value and purpose.
You could use Visual Web Developer using the .NET framework.
Etc.
Like I said, it really depends on just exactly what you want to use the web for. Just displaying information requires nothing more than HTML and CSS.
Requesting information and storing that information or doing something with that information requires something else.
Having the web page respond to button clicks and do things requires yet a different programming language.
Good luck and have fun, but remember, the very hardest part of any web design is the actual design - before you ever sit in front of your computer, you need to have a good graphical representation on paper, because once you start focusing on the code, it's very hard to keep track of the final page design.
Reply:Well the order I learned web design languages was HTML %26gt; CSS %26gt; JavaScript %26gt; PHP %26gt; MySql. I leaned all of these for free threw this website. http://w3schools.com/
The thing about web design is you cant let yourself get discouraged, every time you create a web site your going to run into problems because your trying to get lots of different types of code to work together on lots of different types of browsers and still make it simple enough for people to use.
You may also consider learning some photo shop its quite helpfull for more advanced web design.
Reply:actually I'm a newbie in programming languages so I can't answer which is the best. But I thank everyone for sharing their knowledge. It seems that I'm learning from you guys. ^^
Reply:I advise not using Java as it still has to be compiled even as a web language.
PHP would be your best bet, man. I have been a PHP programmer for about 3 years and I love writing scripts in it.
http://www.phpbuilder.com is an amazing website to start with if you are interested.
Reply:Another good one is JAVA and C++. Java is used ALOT in todays internet and some C++ trainning will be good for you, C++ is used somewhat but it will help you to be more rounded when it comes to design so it will deffinitly benifit you.
Thanks

How can I design my web site and publish to the internet for everyone to browse?
Pls give me program I will use in designing the web site, tell me how to start the program and the full procedure to design the web. Pls note that I don't want to pay any money on designing this web site and publish to the internet.
tell if I can use frontpage or/and any other program to do this.
How can I design my web site and publish to the internet for everyone to browse?
1. You need a webspace at web hosting server.
Recommended :: GoDaddy http://www.godaddy.com
Free webhosting:: Awardspace,freeservers,netfirm...
http://www.awardspace.com/
http://www.freeservers.com/
http://www.netfirms.com/
2. You need a Domain Name
like www.yourwebsite.com
Again Godaddy offers Domain names at lowest price available. You can get your website.info for as low as $ 0.99
Well,you can have free domain name like yourwebsite.awardspace.com with free webhosts. or you can redirect your paid domain towards free webhosts.
3. Web Designing
If you know Html +javascript+flash its a cakewalk, but if you are not equipped, there are loads of free web-publishing softwares available.
Here are a few for the layman:
Rapidwebsite
get free software
http://4minweb.com/
You can design a website by just creating a MS.Word file with same name of your buttons on webpage and they'll contain all those texts.Besides, you can insert pics in .doc file too. If you are aware(remember first page should be INDEX)
When your website is done take it out of your TEMP folder in
Document settings%26gt;%26gt;User%26gt;%26gt;Local%26gt;%26gt;TEMP
OR
you can put your website directly by in built FTP on *rapid website*
a4desk
-------------------
http://www.a4desk.com
This one is a cool , free flash website maker that you can try
4.Next you need to upload your designed website files on webhost.
You can use any of the free FTP softwares like:
CuteFTP ----just punch in your domain name +user id+password to enter the server by simply connecting at FTP.
http://www.cuteftp.com/
Now can put your website pages ..and you are done!
Note:: Always keep the folder structure of your designed website in your mind while loading it at server.
Cheers:)
Reply:It takes time to learn how to do this stuff but there are plenty of guides on the web.
Search for "HTML tutorial" or similar, they will show you the codes as mentioned above and how to use them.
I found when learning that it was easier to use notepad and write my code manually rather than use front page or dreamweaver.
Once you understand how the code works and its structure you can write very compact web pages.
Then progress if needed to front page or dreamweaver - there are other HTML design programs but they are the most common.
If you find yourself a web site with some good tutorials such as http://enetrics.com/html-tutorial/ this takes you through almost everything.
Surprisingly you can be creating web pages in almost no time at all if you start at the beginning and take it step by step.
If you jump straight into Front page it can be overwhelming and slow you down.
Reply:You can use FrontPage but its awful. You are better off using any of the following;
OpenOffice Writer %26gt; save as %26gt; .html
Scribus %26gt; save as %26gt; .html
Mozilla Seamonkey
Nvu
Kompozer
All are free in more ways than just cost.
Then get free space at Yahoo! GeoCities or Google Page Creator.
Then browse for your .html file(s) then upload.
Reply:You could use Frontpage but you don't really learn anything. If I was you I'd start learn HTML or something similar to that, then use notepad to write the HTML in and save it all.
I recommend searching for a free web hosting company on google, and then pick the best one for your needs. If you want your own domain name (eg: www.yoursite.com) you'll have to pay.
Reply:User you favorite editor
then you'll need a web server (eg. IIS, Apache);
and if you want scripting that more than HTML (eg.ASP,PHP), you need to install (PHP , ASP .net interpreter/compiler);
then put your pages, on you web root eg(. www_root:IIS. htdocs:Apache)
then if you need ftp server, download you favorite ftp server
Then now you have to configure your router/gateway (port forwarding).. just remember the ports your application you are using...
Common Ports
ftp = 21
http = 80
https = 443
etc.....
just enable port forwarding with this port(router/gateway) , of course with the IP of your PC, that serves as you local server..
after installing all and configuring router/gateway.. access you server with your WAN IP.. (eg. http://123.121.121.3).. you should know your WAN IP.. Your WAN IP is Dynamic, it will change everytime it has to.. users dont want to remember your IP of course.. so you need a Domain Name (eg. www.mydomain.com).. you can register here http://ww.DynDns.com so you can get your free Domain name.. that will mask your WAN IP.. hope this help
Reply:This question is a bit like 'can you tell me how to perfom a complete service on my Porche Carrera and tell me what equpiment I will need'.
You have to learn how to do it. You will need software such as Frontpage or Dreamweaver, unless you want to learn to hand-code HTML properly in which case you can use Notepad.
An up-to-date website these days is written in HTML and CSS. It will take you several months to learn how to code these.
Alternatively you can go to a site which offers some degree of free hosting and a free programme on their website in which you can design your own site without knowing HTML. However, if you use one of these, your website will never be found in search engines as it will be held 'inside' the site you are using for free hosting.
If you want a fully searchable website, then you need to use the first method I mentioned.
I'd suggest taking an evening class to teach you what you need to know.
Reply:I think you should do some research rather than get us to tell you step by step!!!
You may want to use notetab lite, its what i learned web development with. Its very easy to use and a lot more user friendly than notepad!
I dont think Frontpage is a good program for beginners (or anybody else for that matter!) It doesnt really teach you to use CSS and XHTML properly.
Reply:The cheapest way to make a website is to use notepad, save the file as index.html and write the page.
Basic layout is
%26lt;html%26gt;
%26lt;head%26gt;
%26lt;title%26gt;Title Here%26lt;/title%26gt;
put some CSS here
%26lt;/head%26gt;
%26lt;body%26gt;
Write things here, including javascript.
%26lt;/body%26gt;
Otherwise you will have to buy a program to do what you want to do. Also you will need to buy web space or run your own dedicated server and buy a domain name. Geocities is free, but has ads.
Reply:a basic web site can be made using Notepad which every PC has in it's accessories, all you need to do is learn HTML like I did.
Then there are loads of free hosting companies on the net just google free web hosting and pick one which looks good.

If you find yourself a web site with some good tutorials such as http://enetrics.com/html-tutorial/ this takes you through almost everything.
Surprisingly you can be creating web pages in almost no time at all if you start at the beginning and take it step by step.
If you jump straight into Front page it can be overwhelming and slow you down.
Reply:You can use FrontPage but its awful. You are better off using any of the following;
OpenOffice Writer %26gt; save as %26gt; .html
Scribus %26gt; save as %26gt; .html
Mozilla Seamonkey
Nvu
Kompozer
All are free in more ways than just cost.
Then get free space at Yahoo! GeoCities or Google Page Creator.
Then browse for your .html file(s) then upload.
Reply:You could use Frontpage but you don't really learn anything. If I was you I'd start learn HTML or something similar to that, then use notepad to write the HTML in and save it all.
I recommend searching for a free web hosting company on google, and then pick the best one for your needs. If you want your own domain name (eg: www.yoursite.com) you'll have to pay.
Reply:User you favorite editor
then you'll need a web server (eg. IIS, Apache);
and if you want scripting that more than HTML (eg.ASP,PHP), you need to install (PHP , ASP .net interpreter/compiler);
then put your pages, on you web root eg(. www_root:IIS. htdocs:Apache)
then if you need ftp server, download you favorite ftp server
Then now you have to configure your router/gateway (port forwarding).. just remember the ports your application you are using...
Common Ports
ftp = 21
http = 80
https = 443
etc.....
just enable port forwarding with this port(router/gateway) , of course with the IP of your PC, that serves as you local server..
after installing all and configuring router/gateway.. access you server with your WAN IP.. (eg. http://123.121.121.3).. you should know your WAN IP.. Your WAN IP is Dynamic, it will change everytime it has to.. users dont want to remember your IP of course.. so you need a Domain Name (eg. www.mydomain.com).. you can register here http://ww.DynDns.com so you can get your free Domain name.. that will mask your WAN IP.. hope this help
Reply:This question is a bit like 'can you tell me how to perfom a complete service on my Porche Carrera and tell me what equpiment I will need'.
You have to learn how to do it. You will need software such as Frontpage or Dreamweaver, unless you want to learn to hand-code HTML properly in which case you can use Notepad.
An up-to-date website these days is written in HTML and CSS. It will take you several months to learn how to code these.
Alternatively you can go to a site which offers some degree of free hosting and a free programme on their website in which you can design your own site without knowing HTML. However, if you use one of these, your website will never be found in search engines as it will be held 'inside' the site you are using for free hosting.
If you want a fully searchable website, then you need to use the first method I mentioned.
I'd suggest taking an evening class to teach you what you need to know.
Reply:I think you should do some research rather than get us to tell you step by step!!!
You may want to use notetab lite, its what i learned web development with. Its very easy to use and a lot more user friendly than notepad!
I dont think Frontpage is a good program for beginners (or anybody else for that matter!) It doesnt really teach you to use CSS and XHTML properly.
Reply:The cheapest way to make a website is to use notepad, save the file as index.html and write the page.
Basic layout is
%26lt;html%26gt;
%26lt;head%26gt;
%26lt;title%26gt;Title Here%26lt;/title%26gt;
put some CSS here
%26lt;/head%26gt;
%26lt;body%26gt;
Write things here, including javascript.
%26lt;/body%26gt;
Otherwise you will have to buy a program to do what you want to do. Also you will need to buy web space or run your own dedicated server and buy a domain name. Geocities is free, but has ads.
Reply:a basic web site can be made using Notepad which every PC has in it's accessories, all you need to do is learn HTML like I did.
Then there are loads of free hosting companies on the net just google free web hosting and pick one which looks good.
