    Designing the navigation

    Hello, Are you using dreamweaver? If so, try using: kuler.adobe.com for the colors. and then use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS5GSYU0cEs&feature=related for dropdown menus. Other people will likely disagree, but I happen to love dropdown menus. Louis

    Flash Preloaders

    ok, so I have a website for a client that has an enormous amount of images, and the preloader takes forever. This is because it is loading the entire site first. Is there any way to make it load the different sections only when the user clicks on them? I've temporarily posted it on my own...

    illumination

    i agree. you should definitely use Flash. Create the six triangles as separate MCs. Make the first, and then make the other 5 by duplicating from the first one. That way, they will be uniform. Insert these triangles onto the main stage, and arrange them into a circle. Then, in the properties...

    Do you have a degree? Did it help?

    I just thought I'd poll the people here, out of curiosity, to see whether or not they have a degree, and if they feel that it was unnecessary. If you didn't go to college at all, do you feel that a degree in web design is overrated? I'll start it off. I have a BA in Interactive Digital...

    Visited link - graphic changing?

    the coding is extremely simple. all you have to know is the extremely basic syntax, and then you can just use references to find out which tags to use. that's what I did when I was 13, about 9 years ago. I prefer WYSIWYG editors (Dreamweaver) though. It's much more efficient. Even if you...

    dealing with clients

    Thanks for the advice everyone! Just thought I'd give you all updates. As for the client who wanted a cap on the estimate, I reassured her that my estimates are accurate, and that an estimate isn't just a wild guess. She agreed to pay the $1,000, but claimed that she though it would be half...

    dealing with clients

    Thanks, You're definitely right about being specific in the estimate's details. I even put a note at the bottom of the estimate stating, "This is an estimate based on our initial planning meeting. Additional requests may incur additional charges." What bugs me, however, is that she...
