    Don't. Ever. DreamWeaver generates the crappiest html, unless you intend to use it as a text editor, get any simple text editor like textmate. notepad++ or gedit and work from scratch.

    Been using DW for years. Works perfectly. I never EVER use the graphic option..I put down the code. Every word. Dreamweaver only finishes it with auto-complete to make life a little easier.
    But I never let it generate code...

    Ok, that is an acceptable option. Using it to generate code is the worst thing you can do... I know of too many people who do that.. *shivers*

    I just went through two years of Graphic Design and earned my associates degree. Im currently taking media classes to learn more about flash, programming, web design and photography. I love print design and the Adobe Suite and even Quark, I love page layout and photo manipulation and paper estimating. My favorite thing to do is to design logos and build business packages. Even though I was definitely one of the top few in my class Im petrified to start working!

    Logos are fun to make. I like page layout as well. I used to make layouts for people's Myspace before they changed over to 3.0. I make icons, banners and stuff like that. I got my degree back in 2009 but I dont have a job doing Graphic Design yet. Many places where Im from arent hiring in it. Im kind of scared to start working for the public as well so that's why I have my little side business.

    I do a little bit in my free time. Its just a hobby, and I'm very much an armature, but I think I produce some good stuff. I usually make forum signatures and desktop backgrounds for people but I've used my skills to customise websites and forum themes as well as some other things.

    Yeah, except for the robot, I got that from a site that provides render for this sort of thing. Modified it a bit though. And thanks. =D

    I hate the auto-correct on firefox. It always picks the word I wasn't trying to spell. But that whole sentence doesn't make sense. =P

    Ahhhh!!! My Graphic Tech Professors asked me to join them at a conference today and I found out they picked only me to intern (paid) for the college to design and format the student handbook/agenda!!! They said they think very highly of me and my work and trust me fully to preflight it for print ^_^ This is my first project for someone other than myself or homework, I'm so honored and excited!

    This is the noobiest thread I've ever seen in my life...

    doppelfaggot thinking there's nothing more to design than internet tutorials and kids thinking dreamweaver and comic sans are pro tools.

    *facepalm*
