Do you sketch out your layouts before you make the actual design?
No, I know that's what all of the web design books and websites say to do first, but I just don't see what good it does. I play around with a design in my head, then create the general layout in Fireworks MX, crop and cut out pieces of the design at their appropriate places, and then create the template in Dreamweaver MX. Of course, an idea almost always looks and "feels" completely different on the screen that it does in your head, so I have to repeat this process more than a few times. :indiffere

Ah, I hated that feeling whenever I was making my website(s). I'd have it all set out on my head, I'd code it up and it would look like crap. Was so damn annoying, so I resorted to templates :cool:
 
Nice. Cant wait till see what it looks like. :)
 
Noc! You're back! :cheers:

Welcome, welcome. :)
 
Yay, Noc's finally back! :)

Now, about that GT3 forum... ;)

No, it is $160.
 
What the? It must really be the "One the only,The ultimate" messgae board. :eek:
 
Yes, it really is. There is nothing out there that can compare in features or scalability.
 
Oh my! :eek: I checked out the ADMIN DEMO
and I know what you mean now. :eek:

If you want to try the admin DEMO:

user name is: admin

pass: admin

It takes about 5 minutes for you to find what you are looking for. :thatsodd: Wow.
 
Ah, it doesn't take that long once you figure out all of the options. I know the AdminCP like the back of my hand! :)
 
I can't wait. Hopefully someday i'll have the honor of working on a design.. :)
 
I cant wait till I get admin options like that for my forum. :(

Sponge Bob Square Pants! ...Err.. Sorry, reminded me of the show. :lol:
 
Vbulletin is well worth the cost. I have had it for about 5 months and I absolutely love it. No doubt about it.

I use Photoshop instead of Fireworks and then use Dreamweaver. I never end up publishing my web sites because they either look like **** or never end up getting finished. Its just a thing to do when I'm bored I suppose.
