Okie dokie. Well, lets see here. I started at about age 12 because I was always interested in doing anything related to webdesign because it always called my name. hahaha I think the most helpful thing I could have ever done was to rip other people's sites, as embarassing as it sounds, i did it :D. In ripping other peoples stuff I learned where I put stuff and how other people with nice looking site's did what they did. I did that for maybe a 2 months and was getting awesome at ripping and editing. So then I decided enough is enough, I need to apply what I know and find some sites. I think the most helpful thing was looking up "basic webdesign" in google or somethin and then there was this site called, "Funky Chickens" at http://www.funky-chickens.com. This site is amazing, it literally shows every aspect of anything "cool" you can do, and places them in nice categories too. And so I continued doing that and then began to get into Photoshop, which I finally discovered was the program to use! Once I got to know all the features I was on my way. I'm 16 now, and have been doing webdesign for like 4 years now, and have made a lot of money in the process. It's definately worth your time to learn. Once again, hope this post helped. That's right haha
