Even better if you can get into Ruby On Rails, Perl, Php, SQL and the like... best to do some research and speak to a few people in different professions to find out what u want to do. Webdesign can vary from picture manipulation, to doing backend programming on large databases -very very different roles but come under the same banner. -D Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188416-the-sa-wasteland/page/1306/#findComment-4579339 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most short courses only teach you basic photoshop stuff, to be a decent web based graphical designer you'd be wanting to do at least a years worth of training - possibly at uni aswell... Speak to some webdesigners first and go from there... SQL is programming, Graphic Design is as far away from programming as you can get. It all depends on your mindset, and whether or not you would enjoy either. -D Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188416-the-sa-wasteland/page/1306/#findComment-4579390 Share on other sites More sharing options...
