I hate webdesign!

[MangoWebs]

It's hard for me, I cannot seem to learn photoshop. I know basic HTML, but thats about it.

Im always outsourcing, which is costing me a lot of money.

Practice makes perfect. Choose a design you like and try to replicate it in Photoshop. You might be surprised how much you can do.

In my opinion (and many others) taking a class on design won't make you a designer. Design isn't like development where it deals in absolutes. I would suggest, for all you great developers out there, to find a great designer to partner with.

You can always trade services in place of cash. This will save you a lot of time and frustration.

I've tried, and I've learned that I'm the type that just has to pay others to do it

I'm the same way. I could spend hours trying to make a little banner or graphic and it always turns out looking like a 3 year old did it lol.

You might try looking for designers at http://www.wahm.com under the WAHM Who Web Design. These are work at home moms who are looking for pages to design and many give you great rates!

Taking a class or learning by yourself is important i guess.
Afterall, you need to know how to draw a line using photoshop.
You have to learn the basic skills and then you can let the creativity flow.

Yes it is art more than science. As you know in art, things go non-linear. When you start think like a crazy, it is the right time for creating some interesting web-design examples. When you feel comfortable or relaxy, stay away from design.

I'm self taught, thats how i learn best. I agree dotcomguy science does not reall come into web design.

 

[imported_Shane]

I'm no good with website design either. It's graphics design where my flaw is. .

 

[kiz9999]

yes i never use to be very good at web designing but i stuck at it and now i am good.
