    Simple Web Design Practice?

    Thanks for the input so far. You can feel free to give me some more detail if you want. After all if I'm going to do a practice web design I have to do it right. :) So, why is it bad to lead with asking about deadlines and budget? Don't you need to know if they need the website by "X day"...

    Simple Web Design Practice?

    I didn't mean that I was going to go into business for personal websites. We can open it up to a fake small business. The main thing is the complexity of the site itself since I'm still a novice at scripting. Did I miss any questions that I should be asking?

    Simple Web Design Practice?

    I actually did do some research a moment ago. Most of the questions seem to revolve around targeting visitors for a business. Considering I'm looking for non business types for my practice, these questions don't seem to be very relevant. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) Also they ask...

    Simple Web Design Practice?

    Woot! Thanks for stepping up! :) Well, off the top of my head the questions I would ask would be: Is there a deadline? If so, what is it? What is your budget for this project? I know that obviously I would have to ask about what kind of site you are looking to have made, but having no...

    Simple Web Design Practice?

    Hey all, I'm looking to eventually get into web design as a bussiness. Currently I am decent at HTML and CSS and I'd call myself an intermediate beginner at PHP. What I'm hoping for is for someone to give me a fake web design 'contract.' Basically I want someone to pretend they are...

    Blah websites

    Alrighty. I knew that the menu would have to be links, it just don't have those pages set up yet so I didn't bother making them links. But anyway, I made the changes you suggested. It seems a little cramped to me, especially the main content column. Maybe it's just me lol. EDIT: Ok, I'm...

    PHP Newbie

    You can also, rather than echoing the page itself you could simply add a redirect into your code that sends them to your main page after they have logged in using: header('Location: http://www.example.com/'); of course you can't call the header function to redirect if input has already...

    Hello everyone.. Where to start?

    Hey, I'm by no means a pro, but I found this website to be VERY helpful in my endeavor to learn HTML and CSS. http://webtechu.com/ It's free and they offer self paced classes in HTML and CSS. The teachers have always seemed very friendly and helpful in my experience. I found it to be...

    Blah websites

    Alright, I'm going to say upfront that this is not even close to a complete website. http://phptest.net16.net/ That being said, even though this is only a rough layout of what the site would look like, it is more or less what my sites end up looking like. Very blah, no character, etc etc...

    Blah websites

    Hey all, I'm putting together a website that has tutorials for PHP. The problem is that I just don't have enough website design experience to know how to make the site look anything more than "meh". They always seem so dull and boring and I don't know what to do about it because I'm...
