Some peple say may website has great contents, but the content could be better arranged.

Have been thinking about butting some borders between content, or make backgrounds i different collors for the content.... but don't want it to end up like a cirkus..

Would be very thankful if someone had re-redesing suggestion (the website is new, so i want to keep most of the graphics)... maybe someone could take a screenshot and show me a suggestion later ?

the website is at:
Kikarin.com

The first thing I thought of when i loaded your website is that it needed to be centered.

Looks good otherwise.

People will have problems printing websites whatever. Create 'printer friendly' versions of the pages is the best way to allow people to print your pages effectively.

This is where style sheets become very useful. You can create a stysheet that is used just for printing. If someone wants to print a page, you have a link for this. The link takes yo to the same page, only it loads a different stysheet that makes the page printer friendly. They then print the page at that point.

Does anyone know what education people have that most often make graphics and layout, in websites that companys make ?

Do you know any website where it is possible to find jobs in webdesign (graphics & layout) ?

There are quite a few. A couple degrees you can get:

1 - Associate degree in applied arts - Majoring in specific subject: Computer Graphics, Computer Graphics, Computer Graphics Animation, Etc. )

2 - Bachelors of Arts - Majoring in different things as well: Graphic Design, Computer Art, Multimedia, etc.

I dropped out of school because I was playing in a band, and the band started playing professionally (on the road quite a bit.) I had planned on being a photojournalist.

I do regret my decision to leave school a little bit, and, I never went back to get my degree.

A Web Designer does not need a degree like other occupations. Some employers may lean toward hiring people with some kind of art degree, but, your portfolio generally speaks for itself. (In My experience.)

Personally I fell that a degree in marketing makes for a better web developer.

Create in your style sheet designate a portion of it for a printed version of you website and then re-align it to where you think it is easier to read and print...

<style type="text/css" media="print">
</style>

Not sure how to do this with an external script, but embedded script goes as mentioned above
