How We Design Sites
Well there have been a number of methods that I use, firstly I started off the same way that nearly all designers start, with MS Frontpage :). I used this simply learn the background of designing a site, and the HTML code that produced it. I soon realised how much unnecessary code it used and produced, so I learnt how to hard code pages with Notepad. Now I use a combination of pure code, and Dreamweaver, which produces professional results. My designs now follow a regular pattern ....
Firstly I open my standard template in to Fireworks, and create the entire design in FIreworks. I always try design to 800x600 to cater for this resolution. However, nearly all my sites re-size to any resolution.
Next I slice the image up into frames or tables and import for final adjustments in Dreamweaver.
Once the overall layout gives what I am after, I can then apply style sheets (CSS) to the main content page, which sets fonts and hyperlink colours, table colours scrolls bars etc.
Finally after getting the look just right, I open the site in Firrefox, and perform several fixes that usually occur with browser compatabilities between IE and other browsers. It is now when I have to rearrange everything so it conforms to Standards as well as I.E.
