Yes, you would; if you can obtain some of the rudimentary skills/know-how, you could probably obtain an internship with a design company.

Do you know anything about page layout or design?

Many people have been self-taught. And, a bit of the skills may be a door-opener.

I don't know about page layout or design. I do know a little HTML. I'm hoping to take a Design class in Sept.

I know that the following site states that it's for "kids," but I also know plenty of adults who have learned some HTML from it:

If you have a design program, such as Macromedia Dreamweaver, it's also possible to pick up some technique from it .

September isn't too very far away .

I remember the first page I had designed; it sure looked crummy; it was an AOL-hosted member site. I had no idea what the heck I was doing. I learned by opening and reviewing the underlying source codes.

Thanks Melody and Bobby.

Bobby, the website was not up when I clicked last night.

There is a Dreamweaver class closer to me than the Web Design class that might be easier to get to transportation wise. I'm afraid though without the Web Design class that teaches a lot of HTML that the Dreamweaver class would be too hard.

Thank for the tip on internship.

The site isn't opening for me right now either; it states that they're working to "rectify" it .

Oh, I'd definitely pick up the HTML basics before plunging deeply into Dreamweaver. It will be less frustrating that way when it does come to, i.e., Dreamweaver.

Just a BTW note: I haven't a preference for Dreamweaver. I'm only using it as an example of a program application that can possibly make learning HTML coding easier.

Any program, actually, that enables viewing the underlying coding can be useful to use/have.

It sounds like you're working on your plans, and that's cool .

If Voc Rehab will be assisting, I know that you already realize this (and possibly Voc Rehab. evaluator doesn't)... if voc rehab is helping, have the evaluator get the term correct. Web Designer is what you want and that's what they should cite.

I'm sure you'll learn this: Just make sure to verify or validate the designs you create by viewing in various browsers.

Thank you Bobby. I've filled out the application tonight for the photography class that is closer instead of the webdesign class which is further away and would be harder to get a ride. I can still study HTML free online before the next Dreamweaver class comes out.

I will be sure to correct the Dept. of Rehab. but at the moment I'm having them investigated for not providing me with training or transportation to training. I'm not sure it will do any good until I find out they will help me.

I have found this author very informative. His name is Steve Callihan and offers several easy to learn books on web design. I've used his html book and was impressed at how easy it was to learn basic html. He then takes you further once your ready.

Here's a link to his books on Amazon: Steve Callihan
