I'm a recent grad with a Degree in Graphic Design. I pretty much title myself as a professional in 'print design' b/c thats the basis of everything I had learned in school. Only ONE Web Design class was included in my curriculum!

Well I've recently taken an interest in web design, but have very little understanding in coding and wish to avoid it if I can. Plus I have two clients who would like to have something done very soon.

So my Question: Is it completely horrible and unacceptable to design within Wix (or something similar)? I need it to be accessible for them also so they can continue to upload their own info after I finish designing it.

Input?

same question as here...

and youll get the same answer... to quote.

Yes, yes it is. If you want to be a web designer, you'll have to put in the time to learn to code. That, or outsource it.

As an employer in the web design sector, I find it a total pain when graphic designer can't do any html and CSS and total joy if they can.
