Hi, I am looking at designing sites for others and wanted to see where my skill ranks in the graphics part. I dont know a ton of coding except for like html. I only know how to implement php, asp etc in a site however dont have the skills to code my own or use multiple scripts with one login. I know basic flash, photoshop, basic illustrator, fireworks,

I have been doing it for a few years and won a few awards and got a 2 year web design certificate.

My Awards:
Skills USA Regionals "At My School" First Place
Skills USA State Championships 3rd Place

My Work:

I'll be honest with you, dude...you're not bad with graphics. The problem with that statement is that even I'm not bad graphically. Everyone and their brother on this forum has at least minimal graphic skills. I personally didn't see anything that stood out.

Your certificate and awards mean nothing, since both of them don't do a thing to establish how good a coder you are and if you can build something commercially.

Graphics can only take you so far...and usually, not very far. And people like me will probably run into people like you at some point and resent you because you'll draw an impractical pretty picture and we'll have to be the ones to tell you why we can't code it in a user-friendly way. (Trust me, this has happened to me on more than one occasion).

The other angle is that, if you need to ask whether or not you're ready to design sites for others...you're not ready to design sites for others. You'll know when you are.

Took a look at your site.

Good effort but i agree with billy, there is nothing here that makes you stand out.

Graphics similar to these are available free on the internet.

It is a good idea but you need to either make better graphics or think of a unique selling point that will appeal to your market

Good luck

Hey All, I was 16 or 17 at the time of designing those sites above and have since got a lot better and have been a professional service provider for a few months and have built up a large client base already.

Thanks for the feedback. It is appreciated, I am one who does not give up and works hard even once im good at it.

Those are some average designs. But keep going and you'll get there. Glad you are working hard.

I know CSS with many other languages like XHTML etc, now and my graphics are a whole lot better these days.

This thread was started over a year and a half ago and the designs are probably 2 years old.

I have done this every weeks since then to give you an idea.

Hello I checked the sites out and like you said they are probably 2 years old. I would like your most recent designs. I am just starting to put myself out there as a web designer. I have a site www.bluepixelgraphics.com.

Check it out and lemme know what you think I would also love to see your most recent work
