USEFUL SITES AND FORUMS
W3 Schools
I
think that W3Schools is the best source right now on learning the basics
of coding, especially CSS and Dhtml. Not only is it very clear, concise,
and comprehensive, it even gives visitors a playground where they can do
coding exercises and see the results in real time.
Echoecho
EchoEcho may not be as comprehensive as W3Schools, but it has some
of the most clear and easiest to understand primers on html, css, and other
important web coding. This is a very good site to start off with if you're
completely brand new to all this stuff and want to get grounded before
going off to more advanced tutorials.
Good-Tutorials
This is probably the definitive site for Photoshop tutorials, which
teaches visitors how to do all the latest and trendy graphic effects, from
scanlines and cool wallpapers, to pixel art and text effects.
Flashkit
Flashkit is the ultimate resource for Flash users, offering example
movies for downloads, a large number of tutorials, and a forum where anyone
from a novice to an advanced user can ask for advice. Even better, the
forum is not limited to Flash MX, but provides help for users of other
Flash software, such as Swish and Cool Moves.
Actionscript.org
This is another great Flash-related reference site, this time dealing
with Actionscript. There is a huge library of tutorials here, from beginner
to advanced, and they also come with example movies for you to study.
Webmaster
World
A wildly popular message board, Webmaster World is a virtual cornucopia
of great advice, tips, and tricks posted by knowledgeable members, ranging
from html markup to making the most of Google Ad Sense. The best way to
get the most out of this forum is to just browse through the archives,
as they are chock full of information and links to various resources.
Sitepoint
Sitepoint is known for its many web dev articles and tutorials; however,
it has a great forum much like Webmaster World, where any newbie can post
questions about anything having to do with webmastering, or just read archived
posts answering any questions they have.
HTML Goodies
Virtually a staple on the web, this is perhaps the most well known
html tutorial site on the web-- as well it should be. The lessons are very
easy and comprehensive, and will probably have even the newiest of novices
comfortably writing code in no time.
