    It takes an eye for it. You have it or you don't. And if you don't, it will take longer than 45 days to learn how to fake it :p

    yeah, i know i can google around and find lots of tutorials. But I really have a short time frame and don't want to waste my time on tutorials that wont get me anywhere.

    That's why I am soliciting opinion of people who are experts themselves and know which are the good courses

    I agree with riftshighway you need talent if you dont have talent for design you wont make it no matter how much you study and no matter how many "resources" you have. ;) Good luck

    It's more of a learn on your own kind of thing. Most of the stuff you seem to want to learn is something you can't really be taught through a book or course, you just have to kind of know what looks good, and what doesn't. For the basics though tutorialized.com is a great place for all kinds of programs.
