    I recently had a meeting with the head of a small business association in a local town. We talked about my career path regarding web design, and he seems to believe I should not be focusing on custom web design. He says the trends are heading more and more towards CMS. He told me his company...

    Phreaddee, I completely agree with you, but constructive criticism is different then people blatantly making fun and laughing at him. I'm no calling anyone out, but go re-read some posts.

    My First real website

    Thanks, I just finished it tonight. I really need to figure out how to get IE9 though, because that's the only browser this site may have issues with, until I can view it.
