modern professional weblayout

I have few questions to professionals. thanks to them who help me.

Which products/softs are mostly used by professionals?
few tutorial sites you recommend ?

plz suggest any anything you suggest for becoming a web graphics/layout professional..

 

Well...

Software - Photoshop, if you prefer M$ than Expression Web 2 (I use it - love it), if you hate M$ than Dreamweaver.

Inspiration - look for inspiration galleries like faveup or listings of best trends and websites each year - first visit Toxel for best resources of 2008 (google it)

Tutorials - highly recommend Lynda and TotalTraining - first check out the Inspiration Galleries - than watch the movies to get the information on how to roll with the designes.

Good luck to you friend!

 

For software, I usually use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, ImageReady and Flash to develop different graphics and media designs.

As for the tutorial, I usually use w3c tutorials when I was just starting to develop sites.

 

I learned to create web graphics with online photoshop tutorials.

 

for inspiration just google web 2.0 i think that is what you are looking for.
also dreamweaver+ photoshop can help you to get it coded.

 

i use photoshop and Notepad ++ to design websites
works a treat

 

Photoshop and Dreamweaver good to star for the right way, then you can learn ActionScript and use Flash. Too many things to learn but it's very funny.

 

I only use Photoshop. Although, when I am out of ideas, I google photoshop effect tutorials and I am always blessed with good findings, allowing me to create new effects to accomodate the design tremendously
