    @Liam, Just wanted you to know that i didnt take your advise and
    suggestions as an offence, on the contrary i really appreciate it. i
    have visited the sites you suggested. Some of the are confusing
    though. Now i want you to clearify something for me. You said you copy
    site, create them on PS and the build them. I want to know how you
    copy, if its by taking a screen shot of the sites and cut them up in
    PS or by saving the sites and then editing them offline with
    DreameWeaver and PS. If you method is the first them it means you
    would have to deal with lots of images and then there would be the
    problem of text to. Really i need you suggestions cos i really want to
    now work on my design skills.
    Thanks

    Ernest,
     
    I think he meant get inspiration from high quality sites.. sites that come
    to mind are Adobe.com, kickstart.com - or any web 2.0 site that is popular
    this week. I guess you could screenshot them so that you can remember what
    they look like and how they are laid out. Pay attention to colors.
     
    Maybe you can start yourself a offline portfolio of sites you like. Take a
    screenshot and make notes about the site and what you like. That way, when
    you need to build a site, you can look through your inspiration portfolio
    for ideas.
     
    I am not trying to discourage you, but I believe that an eye for design is
    born in some people. while there are colleges that teach design from a
    technical perspective.
     
    Go to adobe.com and check out MUSE. http://muse.adobe.com/features.html
     
    It is their new platform for building websites. Not as complicated as
    dreamweaver and acts almost like a template in the way it helps you design
    a site. It is free right now while it is in beta, but when it launches it
    will be a subscription product, you will have to pay by the month

    What I done was just bring a site up and copy it in photoshop, no screen
    shots I did it from scratch then used my photoshop mock ups to recreate the
    site. you learn alot :-)
     
    Practice is key and also looking at other great sites gives you a lot of
    inspiration I also read .net and web designer magazines they are fantastic!

    ST does code complete via a plugin - one of the guys on the forums ported
    the Komodo one to ST - have a look at
