The fire icon is good, the white style and blue texty-thingo is good too.

It's good Nouman, you impress me. Keep up with the good work and you shan't be harmed.

FIRE ICON OWNS MY BUTT. Hahahahaha.

I also love the color scheme, and of course, the simplicity. It looks simple, clean, and professional. I never ever knew that you are really skilled in web design! =D

I wish D:
no the fire icon was given to me to use. It was a design contest at first where users used the icon and made a site that he would like. I won so I am making it now.

and thanks for taking a look and leaving comments. ^^

I'm studying HTML, used to it but not master.
What's the difference of HTML and PHP?

Ah, I knew HTML would be useful. I kinda mastered it. ;D
So, we need to be able to use both HTML and CSS?

The programs, is all of them is needed or just one of them?
Cuz it happens I have dreamweaver but never have the chance to use it.

I wouldn't be able to give you a good answer on that. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP)

program:
notepad
dreamweaver
html kit
notepad++

only one of any of the listed programs is needed. Also, you don't NEED to know CSS, just it is preferred.

Ah, but when you Nouman for example make something like the fire site you made, the graphics layout and other graphic stuff is pre-made, right?
Not made by the codes.

Yes, I make everything in photoshop, but as you see, not everything is images. You can highlight all the titles, they are text and not images, but my photoshop file looks like this:

then I use it to base the code off of, and cut up some images out of it.

Yeah, I know how to make text higlight when touched by mouse.
What about wordpress?

Is is the default template editor or something, and is it necesarry?
...Sorry if ask too many questions. :P
Title: Re: Web Design - Recent project
Post by: ahref on October 10, 2007, 03:09:52 PM
most of your queries can be done a number of ways but css is always seems cleanest

Code: [Select]
a:hover{what link looks like when mouse over}

youll need to go through css tutorials to know exactly what to enter.

if youve got dreamweaver or similar it cant probably do this for you.

no wordpress is not necessary. It's actually a way to score some extra bucks. I finished this guys web site already, then he saw wordpress and gave me 150$ on top to install it. It's basically a CMS. (management system) so people can easily add/edit/ect. content on the site. Yes you will have to take your web page and make it into a wordpress template, not really hard, but it can be the first time around.
