Are any of the on line classes to learn web design any good. Especially for a beginner.?

Being a newbie myself I'm finding it extremely hard to building my own website. \nProblem is usually you want your site to be eye-candy and all so you want to master everything at once.\nSolution : follow step-by-step tutorials and on-line classes very carefully because even if you think you already know something it's not alwaays the case.\nThe best way to do, though, is to go ahead and start building your website and even if it will take time, you'll learn from your errors.

flash is 'flashy' (haha, i know....) but i do web design for a living and the basics of a site should sit on css/javascript and php/perl if you can run server-side processing.  learn that stuff first (it's a lot), then move on to playing with graphics

As a professional web programmer I would suggest to use http://www.pixel2life.com as it is an amazing source, than probably http://www.w3schools.com/ and for server side like php i would say php.net . But i highly recommend o'riley medias in a nutshell series. as well as sams learn...in 10 minutes

I don't know about online courses, but there are certainly computer program courses available. Try www.readysetsign.com

You answered your question already. You must make the site look really genuine. It is my opinion that we tend to judge on line education based on how the website look and ensures that it's not one of those where you'll end up paying for "manuals, guidebooks" and all other stuffs that you don't actually need. You have to trust your instinct and stick to your feasibility study when you first thought of putting up your on line education...consider the competition as well. Personally, I'd go for an Internet based education that is somehow "connected" or affiliated  with a known educational institution...

The real money is in programing you won't need maths but you will need a head for coding and detail. \n\nI would take a short course in web design if that is what you want to do, look for week long courses that would be enough for the basics and to get you started on making sites. Then set up your own and try and charge through that - you can charge as much as people will pay, so as long as you get your self known and get people to email you will offers you could do ok.

Certainly ... the course is free and your reason for doing it is totally personal.  Many on line courses can be quite helpful.

A good place to start learning about web programming is  the W3 (as in World Wide Web) Schools Site which I have linked to below.  \n\nI highly suggest starting with the HTML and CSS courses.

In my opinion, nothing replaces being in a school with a live instructor.  Online classes may help strengthen your technique, but without the basic knowledge...online classes are futile.

this same question was asked so ill paste my previous answer:\n\n\nlearn the basics of html. lissaexplains.com gives you clear simple directions about the basics of html. you may not want to learn html but if you want to be able to customize your site the way you want it and not have to use templates than learn html. once you get the hang of html and understand it you will be able to take html codes from html help sites and alter them to fit your needs since most of the codes you use to make your page will be codes you gather from other sites and you'll have to alter them yourself to fit your site.\n\nsecondly you'll need to get either adobe photoshop or paint shop pro. paint shop pro is easier and cheaper and works just as well as adobe. you'll use that program to design your page.\nlearning html and paint shop pro or adobe are adventures all by themselves so be patient. the biggest obstacle with using paintshop pro to make web layouts is your MIND. I know it sound crazy but its true. There are hundreds of tutorials on how to use paint shp pro but if you cant use your mind and be creative then making a layout is useless.\n\nOnce you've mastered that, which may take a couple months, you can learn php which is pretty easy if you learn step by step\n\nyou can go to blog.bootlegcrayolas.com. the layout (the model and the effects) was made in painshop pro and saved as an image. and the html portion of the site is the text and the positioning of the text and the color of the texts and links and whatnot. both components came together and made that site.\n\nIf you want me to help you through out your process i will be glad to help because i know what it was like learning and how frustrating it was not having one on one help. you can email me at esha@bootlegcrayolas.com with you aim or yahoo name and i can guide you through it.

Designing websites is fun and easy, but I recommend starting out for fun before you try and turn a profit.  Visit the website www.wc3schools.com for tutorial type guides on how to make webpages, and then start with a free webhost such as www.geocities.com\n\nGood luck

The best site out there for helping you design and operate a website to professional standards is the Sitepoint website. You can find it at:\n\nhttp://www.sitepoint.com\n\nI've followed the site since before it was Sitepoint (was webmaster journal or resources or some such back in the 90's) and it's hands down the best. Many professionals and really smart entrepreneurs and techies hang out in the forums and the entire community is very helpful. They even have a forum where you can request other members to look over your site and offer their opinions which is great to help you stay on track. The articles range from basics to very technical, but all are well written and if you're the least bit computer-savvy, most will walk even beginners through some fairly complicated steps with ease.\n\nIf I had only website that I could visit to use as a resource for web design, web development, coding, eBusiness and eMarketing...this would be it. The guys who operate it started their own press and they've put out many great books over the years. I say this as someone who majored in eBusiness, worked as a PC tech, has a military background in technical intelligence and communications, authored an IT column, and has been building sites and consulting off and on for over 8 years.\n\nIf what you really meant by your question was "How can I have a cool Flash website?" then I would suggest you hit your favorite search engine and look for "Flash designers, Flash design" and see what services they offer. If you're into do it yourself, I'd suggest enrolling at a local college and taking a Flash course to get you rolling in the right direction--but only if you're a bit artsy and patient and willing to read up on good web design and accessibility standards and practices on your own. Otherwise, Flash designers are everywhere, which means it's a buyers market (i.e., you can hire one without going into the poorhouse for 20 years). \n\nGood luck with your endeavors.

Web Design is a very broad subject. It is very much worth learning as a skill to have but in order to be of value in the industry you need to learn a fair bit. \n\nConsider the page design and layout just one part of it. You will need to think about what coding langauges you wish to learn, HTML, PHP etc. \n\nIf you want to create scripts to automate things then you may need to learn Perl, ASP. \n\nIt is very rewarding to create a site and get it functioning correctly on your own accord so even if it's going to be a hobby I would say yes, give it a go.\n\nThe 'for dummies' books are great to get started.
