I briefly log on to check my Snuffle Potions thread, but I don't currently have time to do anything else on FV. I'm really sorry if I have left messages to go unanswered!

Well, while you wouldn't be able to make whole websites like that, some really awesome people I know who specialise in CSS taught themselves and learned that way!! They make a lot of CSS styles for an extension called FreeStyler or something. I'd honestly say that just doing what you're doing puts you ahead of quite a lot of people, if I'm honest with you. I've actually even seen CSS styles done by people who are very advanced and they honestly look terrible because they have no sense of design and what looks good. So the fact you have a grasp of what looks good on top of going out of your way to actively look things up and work on everything is really impressive!!
There was a good example of this issue in both a professional designer's website, and a tumblr theme creator's page. I can't remember the professional website, and the tumblr theme creator deactivated, but the professional website genuinely looked like it was an image made in MS Paint and the theme creator made everything incredibly busy, super tacky, splash screens everywhere [that reappeared every time you clicked to the next page, as it was paginated, by the way.] and honestly no real way for the eye to know what to focus on. They made all of their backgrounds huge images, too, which covered up the fact that they seemingly couldn't figure out how to make a background that didn't tile. The illusion would be ruined whenever you just zoom out a little, though. It was a designer's nightmare. :C
Rambling aside, the point is, you don't need to be professionally trained to be a good coder. I started off as just a hobbyist that liked dabbling in it, myself. I think as long as you're having a lot of fun doing it, you'll wind up making something awesome. If you're overly technical with it, you lose sense of what makes the design look good because you're focused on the stylistic bells and whistles. Knowing how to do something doesn't always mean you're good at it, and not knowing how to do something doesn't always mean you're bad at it!!
Ohhh that's awesome!! I'm a web design major so seeing lovely profiles warms my little heart. I'm making mine from scratch locally right now!! You seem to have a solid sense of style so I can't wait to see when it's done!!
Of course I'll let you know when I open shop!! You can also let me know when you've finalised your CSS, too, because I'm sure the finished product will look wonderful. ;v;
Aw, thank you!! I'm glad you liked it, and I do aim to open up shop some point hopefully sooner rather than later, but I've got college and all that.
Your profile looks wonderful so far, by the way!! I can't wait to see how it looks when it's finished. Are you making it on your own, from scratch?
