I want to get rid of all the other sections and focus on my cross-stitch. I plan to use the PHP script I’ve been working on at work with some modifications. I’ll be able to update it through an admin panel, including uploading photos.

  • Remove old content
  • New layout (in progress)
  • Modify and install PHP script
  • Add content

I’ve been thinking about the business of web design lately (surprise, surprise). What I’ve been thinking about today are the different “levels” of web designers. There are those that still code using tables for positioning instead of CSS. There are those that use huge background images. And then there are those who know how to design and code effectively and accessibly.

I browse through web designers’ portfolios sometime online. Often, I’m appalled by the code (I’m appalled looking at the code of some of my sites as well). Since I started working at my job, I’ve had to think more about things such as people using dial-up or handicapped people. These aren’t really things they have told me to be mindful of, but things I realized that I really need to do, especially in regards to their main site which we will be redesigning sometime next year. I purchased a book on web site accessibility that I hope to actually read…unlike all my other web design books that I haven’t read yet.

It just made me think about how anyone can make a website, but to be a true web designer you have to study the science and art of web design. Unfortunately, I’ve never come across any schools that teach it very well, so it’s something most people have to learn on their own. It’s something I haven’t done enough of but I hope to remedy that.
