Web designers and web developers are two of the most sought-after
professions these days, and it's not as hard is it may seem to become
one. With some free time, a keen interest, and a lot of practice and
patience, you could find yourself making world-class websites and
earning a nice income from them.
(1) Learn from other great web designers and programmers.
Take a look at other well-designed websites, and note how a menu or
content area is laid out and then use that knowledge in your designs.
(2)Get the right tools. Start by getting a good vector graphics editor such as Adobe Illustrator. Making images using vector graphics is the easiest way to grasp graphics design, so spending some money on something like Illustrator or Fireworks will be a great help. Inkscape is a nice free and open-source alternative for beginners.
