...how to make a decent website?

I know PHP and CSS are in it, but do I also need a bit of Photoshop skills?

Thanks

Hmm for your php and html + css go to: www.w3schools.com

and trial and error is the best way to go for photoshop skills imo!

Thanks Nathan

My HTML is a bit rusty (very) so I'll go do some HTML before I start on PHP.

As for photoshopping - I don't really use it very much, about 99.9% of my stuff comes from Paint.NET anyway. I'm also getting Corel Paint Shop Pro XI to add to my application library, which can do a bit more than Paint.NET effects-wise.

If you want any help on your way, with html and php, i should be able to help I'm not saying i am the best, but I should be able to help, here and there - and if not, ill refer you to -dt-

I've used www.zymic.com for templates in the past...

ryxdp, it doesnt matter what image editing program you use... just as long as you can make uber images (which by the look of your av/sig you can =p)

also i know a fair bit of php/html/css but if you really need help on some hard stuff... i would go to WDZ not dt =p because dt just tells you to search it =\

Thanks NanaFreak I'll keep that in mind, although, I'd rather just post a thread when faced with a problem because that way anyone can answer

I learned my XHTML and CSS from in a college course. The textbook is an excellent reference.
For PHP, I learned mostly by experience and by looking stuff up on php.net, and reading the user notes.

$107.07AUD, i cant afford it lol. I believe most textbook are great references as they have been designed to teach the reader what the book is about.
