Well, using plain HTML I believe I have made some "beautiful" webpages in college, I was our University's artist for 4 years. :)
Sounds like you may have the "flair". Usually its just a matter of learning the language that you need to get the job done. ;)
So those things I listed in my original post and "flair" are the ones I need?
What i tend to find is people with the creative skills lack the programming skills and vis-versa.
I myself am better at the programming side of things, and lucky for me I work with a very good designer, I code he designs. have a look at this site below was programmed by me and designed by the other guy (There are Cp on both pages very good stuff)

Who, me? Thanks. :blushing:
I have run into that CSS but what exactly is it? I had some knowledge in JavaScript but can't I discard it altogether and just use VBScript?Quote:

So, you really dont need a css, but its good to have, that way your site is uniform :) :wave: :rolleyes:

Hack is always right on! :)
XML is nice!
Darn, stupid me, could somebody share an insight on what XML (Extensible Mark-up Language) is? Is it some sort of Scripting Language also?
Well, if you are talking about SQL Server then I "know" it already, if it's MySQL then I will learn it too. :)Quote:

w3Schools is an excellent site for your basic web development skills. I don't like its ASP.NET tutorial though.
