New to the forums – trying to make a career switch to web design

Posted on September 20, 2012 by admin456 views

I’m aiming to switch gears from it systems support and also administration to web design and interactive mass media, and am writing to look for advice on the best way to get heading. In particular, I’m wondering how to get a portfolio started with minimal practical knowledge (I’ve dabbled somewhat bith with HTML CODE, CF, and ASP ages ago), and ultimately whether any kind of formal graduate analyze (i. e. an MBA) is critical or useful — specifically after having established a goal of running a strong interactive media boutique sometime soon. you dont need qualifications to start with, you should just find the basics down, before beginning any formal degree. it is best to get to grabs with things just like CSS and XHTML, as well as obtaining the concepts regarding design theory. if you’re wanting to get a job in just a web design firm you will require some qualifications from the topic, but im unsure which. Inside the web development seeing that I’ve seen the idea, how educated we are shows less after that 10% of how well we’re. There are an abundance of young web coders (I’m a highschool pupil, for example) plus it’s hard to … Continue reading →

Considering I’ll end up being working around 16 hours p/w as well as creating 5-10 web page websites for small enterprises (no interactive features) I’m assuming it would wise to only take on one project at a time. This being the case secure handle potential people that want a person’s services while your in the middle of a project, and even have a few projects lined up from then on, just pencil these people in 3. How do one does the ‘handover’ in the complete website and arrange payment On earth do you just make the positioning live once some sort of payment is recieved 3 OR MORE.

Can someone post me some tutorials please

Posted on September 20, 2012 by admin499 views

Basically i got told to create a site for IE7 as well as Firefox 2. 0. My client said that because IE7 is going to be taking over IE6 there isn’t any reason to faff around from it. Furthermore 97% connected with visitors to the last site were using something apart from IE6. Its now built but we would like to redirect IE6 users to your splash page and ask them to also use FF as well as IE7. There will in addition be a switch which when clicked presents them a cookie for them to browse with IE6 whenever they wish so. My life has been realy hectic lately. (GF’s mum passed on 10 days ago), i’m moving house and Relating to an exam throughout 10 days. If someone could direct me to how i possibly could differentiate between surfers and how possible send a cereal bar. Help on this is VERY VERY significantly appreciated Why do you need to tell you site visitors that their browser is old and also updated! Especially IE6 MY SPOUSE AND I fear that certainly not everyone " can" redesign to IE7… like me in my own working environment… that they haven’t updated … Continue reading →

where the hell do i go from here?

Posted on September 20, 2012 by admin472 views

we’ve just started this particular – http: //www. freewebs. com/aedesigns2/main. html for the client selling woksheets for you to schools, but where should i go from here we’ve got a head block, or it would seem. almost any suggestions solidgold haha, that’s the least amount of content There’s no doubt that I’ve seen about here (asking intended for direction). Obviously you need a good 4-5 section intro about what it’s the company should. As well as that maybe some pictures belonging to the products or investment photos of individuals, schools, administrators, teachers, etc (whoever it truly is using the conclusion product). Likewise, need to know color schemes. What about a chalkboard flash banner rather then what you own I always suggest conversing with the customer discovering what colors they need, do they have/need some sort of logo, when someone looks for the site is there a impression they wish to make, does the consumer have any suggestions, etc. Extra info you get at a customer, the easier it’s to design something. Do not know what else to talk about with so tiny. Hope you get used to the mind hinder. Best of luck……… hmm, ideally it’ll pass! im just at … Continue reading →

Art Gallery questions

Posted on September 20, 2012 by admin538 views

Hi. I’m currently trying to build a web-site for an artist I know. I have made a php script that may insert the thumbnails on auto-pilot by reading them out of particular folders, so all that is required is to breakup with more pics within the folders, it succeeds fine. A couple questions: A SINGLE: Each one pic is surrounded by an < a> tag considering the href being something like " large_pics/". $file. ". php" so each picture automatically points towards the php page with the large version of the pic on the item. For example " large_pics/still_life. php" and so on. etc. Now if i wanted to merely make one article " large_pic. php" and insert that relevant pic in it would better IMHO – singular page to compose, more flexibility, and so on. etc. Just how do i pass the info from your thumbnails page into the large_pic page with regards to which pic it really is All I have to send is this variable " $file" by one page for you to another, so you select the thumbnail point out " still_life" and it also opens " large_pic. php" and also inserts the " $file" straight … Continue reading →

I was wondering what I must do about hosting that sites. Should I buy my own ring space and put every one of the sites on that, or should I just now help them create a domain and also host and permit them pay the $5 a month themselfs I is likely to have my private space anyway, but what goes on when I look at college and halt making sites Im in senior high school now, just attempting to make a little money working for myself, work my own , personal hours, etc. Ive made just one site so significantly, but the guy I made it for told quite a few friends and Concerning 3 people lined up for webpages.

I offer advice what is the right hosting firms will be good/bad, i was and perhaps … Continue reading →
