    I recently designed this for Ford: https://www.myfordpass.com/

    Started out really cool and slowly became more and more corporate/boring as we went through round after round of feedback :shmurda:

    There's not enough web dev people on this board :emoji_slight_frown:

    Anyone made anything new recently? @theg @AnalOnFirstDate @csw621 @coldkick

    I recently completely redesigned my portfolio site - www.kstardesigns.com. Tried to incorporate some CSS3 stuff I never tried before and just new design techniques. One think I really can't get the hang of is background ideas. I always just end up doing solid colors.

    Good tips up there, anal guy.

    Some other good sites besides Lynda and w3schools:
    css-tricks.com - pretty much has answered any question I've ever googled
    stackoverflow - same as above
    codepen.io - really useful for learning based off real examples, and creating your own code. Has html/css/js built into each "pen" you create and live preview, and pretty much everything you need to test out anything or just to get ideas from others. You can follow/like/etc like on social media.

    Make a plan!

    I don't know what your goals are, but research the industry thoroughly to the point you know what the highest standards of website look like, what they are capable of doing, what direction the industry is heading for in the future. If you're trying to be a web designer, make sure you're top tier on your design work! Say to yourself you're going to design 5 different types of websites, and see how they look next to other websites, do they look as good? better? Practice practice! You'll make improvements without realising when you're doing this s--- over and over. Also expand your skills so you have some stand out appeal, show you can design brochures, flyers and whatnot.

    For coding, a decent site is www.w3schools.com. Just keep searching everytime you get stuck. Also buy books if you're serious about it, but I guess it depends on what way of learning you prefer [Internet vs. books]. Once you have a list of short and long term plans, follow them through! Find your favourite site and try replicate it or put your own twist on it. If you have built a solid enough plan, you shouldn't feel the urge to deviate away from it anytime soon.

    Make a list for what you want to achieve next year, I've literally planned EVERYTHING I want to do to the littlest detail.
