Hello! My name is Kacey Hill, I am 21 years old and I have a very creative mind, I also have a myspace page which I am constantly trying to improve. Anyways I am very interested in learning web design and graphics design and would like to teach myself how to do it all. I know this is possible for I know someone who taught themselves, not personally or I would have them help me. SO I would appreciate any feedback on how I should go about doing this, where would be a good place for me to start? and is there anyone out there who has also taught themselves? Thanks. Kacey

I'm glad you're interested in web/graphic design. Well, I taught myself and I used many tutorials here on cB and whenever I thought something might not look to good I would post in the Showcase Booth and people told me what I should do to make it better. cB is a great place to start but if you use Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, or any other image editing software, you can also search online for tutorials. It gets pretty easy once you get used to it but you have to know that it'll take time. I for one, think that the majority of web/graphic designers taught themselves so you shouldn't have problem but it doesn't mean that you have to, I'm sure there are many people out there who would be glad to help you, such as myself. :) Every web/graphic designer doesn't just have talent like that, they had to "devolop" it so don't sweat. Again, just look at some tutorials and ask a few people for constructive critiscm/help and most importantly, have fun. Good Luck.
