I'm a young man from Madrid. I am a full-time non-payed musician and a part-time half-payed web designer. I stomped into the profession and would like to learn more on the fundamentals of the web.
Location: Madrid
Standard Set Answer:
I've started working on it on my own, but would like to get some more background on it (because, as always, i fail on the basics rather than on the complicated stuff).
I hope to find a community where i can help others with the little i know and also get help from people who know more than i do. The latter will come first, hopefully i'll get to turn that around sometime.
Some day, when i have the required skills sure i would be.
Public Set Answer:
1. Of course.
2. I've done just some basic web-making and am trying to delve deeper into some more complicated issues.
3. First, the basics. Then, some trouble-shooting, real-world-applied CSS and also some of the new and very interesting extensions like Less and SASS. Some grid-based stuff and how to do some responsive design would be nice too.
4. I would like to end up being a full time web designer, of course.
