Hey everyone,
Just to start off, I work at a data center building servers, support, web hosting, VPS, and a whole lot more
. I always wanted to get in to web design, and have messed around with photoshop, flash, few others and really just messed around with tutorials. But I feel like I can only get so far then I get all bogged up. I have a friend that wants to start coding but isn't a big fan of the design aspect, so I figure that's where I would come in, eventually. Please, help me out as to where I should start my web design career .. Do I simply go from tutorial to tutorial, is there a book I should read up on. I even am wiling to sign up for a class, but most people I talk to say its mostly a waste of money, you can learn way more on your own =X. So, any suggestions, yes I know its a hard question to answer considering I'm sure mostly everyones starting point was different. Anything at all will be greatly appreciated.
