This book provides coverage
of web design, and offers useful comparisons
between elements of design in the print
world and those in the web world. The book also acts a
resource for those currently in art/design and other
creative industries to learn how to apply
their skills to the Web. The book
informs designers about the similarities and
differences, and what to expect. For example,
the book goes into detail about browser-safe
colors, the differences between gifs and jpegs,
when and why to use them, and
also provides coverage of tools (such as
Photoshop) that can help you create web
artwork. The book also provides information
about the work web designers do, including
a chapter covering the life cycle of a web
design project. Coverage of web development
tools and languages, including HTML, style
sheets and JavaScript is also provided.
Taking Your Talent to the Web is a great book for artists looking to apply their skills to web design and for amateur webmasters ready to take their skills to the next level. If you already have talent and experience in art and design, this reference can help you expand your skills so you can earn additional income from web design.
