Favorite Web Design/Development Site

April 19th, 2005 | 12 Comments | Posted in Web Development

I asked you yesterday to think about the sites that you’ve found most helpful while you have been in class. I know it’s tough to think of just one (ok, how about two), so here is a little food for thought:

  1. What site do you visit every day or several times per week?
  2. Which site makes you go wow?
  3. Which site has tutorials that really made a subject “click” for you?

Please leave a comment below and include a link to your favorite site/s.

    The site that I have used most often and learned a lot from is The W3C website by using their tutorials and the html validation which is a great way to learn about compliance issues.

    Mani’s site is so beautiful. I go there often for inspiration. It’s like a visit to an art museum on a cloudy day, uplifts the spirit and to know she got her technical foundation here at ROP gives me hope!

    Personally, I’m overwhelmed by the quantity and quality of helpful design sites out there. Being lazy, I let the sites come to me – I subscribe to “css-discuss” and the “Web Standards Group” discussion group lists. Every day I see at least a dozen interesting and relevant articles referenced there.

    Just Google those two names to check them out.
    … And there’s always Robin’s Blog :-)

    Now I must do something to get my life back! :-\

    Brainjar by Mike Hall is an intersting site. It covers CSS, javascript, DHTML, ASP, .Net and Java. I’m suprised that Hall hasnt made the move to XHTML yet but I’m sure he will when XHTML becomes more accepted. Brainjar, also has tutorials for the topics that I mentioned plus working examples. An example in the CSS area I like is a working blackjack game using CSS and javascript. Another is in the Java area is an working Asteroids game using Java! Some of the site’s tutorials by Hall also have been translated and posted onto Spanish, Italian and French language web design tutorial sites.

    I enjoy going to Robin’s crab page. I never knew this type of hobby existed. I also like the way she takes pictures, I plan on buying a digital camera real soon and hope I will be able to shoot pictures like her or a little bit like her. Adios.

    http://www.metsuyan.com is an interesting example of how the choice of the browser used changes the affect of the web site. In IE (internet explorer) the submenu backgrounds move in a jerky fashion when the scroll bar is moved. While in firefox the background stays fixed and the center panel(s) move up and down correctly. In the catering submenu the IE browser shows a better distribution of the 3 elements that make up the center panel, than that shown with the firefox browser. Heathfoods option on the home screen goes no where in either browser. To the sites’ credit there is a good amount of documentation in the source documents.

    For sheer exuberance, visit http://www.molly.com/

    Despite being a prolific writer, this lady has a life. (She writes about it, too – among all the excellent writing on web design!!)

    It’s hard for me to pick just one, but I will tell you that Mandarin Designs never ceases to amazing me. There are so many articles and sample code snippets, it’s pure educational joy to visit the site.
