Asif bhai,

To be honest, I never got SPOTLIGHT before. :-). Never got a prize too. So it's too enjoyable to me. I am really happy to be a spotlight member. Questions/answers part is the most amazing.

If someone come to me and ask that question, I ask him several questions. Why do u want to learn design? Did u done any research regarding Design? something like these...If u don't clear about what u r doing, u can't do that job good enough.

And I encourage him so much. Want to give him an overview of design related career. What kind of work & responsibility he has to maintain. How much hard work he needs to do to go to the top position. etc etc.

The fact is that, we don't have so much patience. And we don't want to work hard enough to master one thing. We want to know many thing at a time. We want to get a job of 20k-30k job withing 6 months. And ultimately we loose the path and start over another one like this. :-)
Absolutely true Maq bhai.

I also often face this question as i am doing freelancing for more than one year and constantly getting clients over online by just sitting in my small room. so this may seems a dream to the normal people, and they ask me how to do that, or how to be a web developer or designer.

All of them think, simply learning softwares is enough to be a designer.so in that case, i simply ask them, do you have passion for designs? do u feel color? do you ever examine the bill board across the road of Dhaka city? they usually surprised by those question and they want to know why i am asking those? The answer is same in all the case....."there will be a time, after leaning all design software, you will face the main challenge....how creative you are....if you think you are minimum level creative then continue learning those software....cz in global arena......each designers have awesome software skill...but creativity...??...not every1 has."

In case of development>>> i suggest them to learn HTML/CSS first. i give them www.w3schools.com site address and ask them to start HTML/CSS. after learning those they ill get their individual path automatically.

Thanks for sharing.

Amit bhai,

You just described it briefly and nicely. We don't have passion for the work, we have passion for money. We all want SHORTCUT to income big amount of money. I believe, don't run after money, money will run after u. :-)

For development, I also suggest w3school. this is the best site I ever got to learn web design. It's pretty easy, simple and enough informative to be a web developer.

You rock man.

There is a rummer around us, HTML is nothing to learn. There is no future for HTML. Most of the IT people neglects it. Which is defiantly a VERY BIG WRONG IDEA.

I have a personal experience regarding this. At my work place, there was a PHP developer called "Mr. A**h**e". I am the only markup guy then and there was tremendous pressure. So, every developer was helping me on this. I just created them the basic layout and they worked on it. The tried to fix the simple bugs if they could, otherwise I looked after them. That "Mr. A**h**e" said, he is not a simple markup guy. So he won't work on any kind of markup issues. And he didn't.

After few months he was kicked out from the job. And few months later, one of my colleague, who worked with him, meet him in an seminar. And my colleague asked him what are u doing now man? And "Mr. A**h**e" said proudly, now I am working on markup heavily. My colleague told him you are an "A**h**e"!

Aare bhai, apni to amare bishal bishal shob questions ask kortesen.

1) DD k niye amar shopno:
DD is the first forum for designers in BD. But ami chai na DD just ekta virtual place e hoke. Ami chai DD real life e o onek provab rakhuk BD designers community r joynno. Resource collection er joynno hazar hazar site ase. Oita ashole khub guruttoporno na amar kase. Jeta dorkar, designer/onnoder der encourage kora design line e ashar/thakar joynno. Amader ekhanker desinerder problem gulu detect kore oi gulur shlver ere beper sheper nia kaaj kora. Counseling er bebostha kora jete pare. Career path er upor kaj kora jete pare. Design shomporke manush ke aaro valo vabe janano. Amader solid information er bebostha nai kotha. Oita kora jete parle onek look ei line e ashbe. I know, this are tough work. but we could give a try at least. Amora jara ei beper sheper gulu jani, tader ekta shamajik kortobbo ase. Oita ke kaje lagano.

DD theke design related workshop / career council er ayojon kora jete pare ekta time por por. Ete onek look upokrito hobe, career line khuje pabe. Oi look shara jibon DD'r kotha bolbe.

Onno je beper gulu ase, BD'r desigenr der worldwide porichito kora. Tader joynno kaj er bebostha kora. "DD Design Work Bureau" banano jete pare, jekhan theke designer ra tader skills onojai bid kore kaj nite parab. Onek skilled/valo designers asen jara baire theke kaj kivabe nite hoy janen na, tader help hobe. Aar DD ekta choto % rekehe debe or fund hishebe.

May be I sound's like crezy, but I AM DREAMING man!

2) DD te r ki ki features thakle ami mone kori bhalo hoto:
To be honest, I am not a hardcore forum guy. So It seems enough to me what have already.

3) Bangladesh er software and design industries niye ami koto tuku ashabadi:
Marattok ashabadi. Ettoshob bipod/proticulotar maje amora jevabe kaaj korse, aar kew parbe ki na shondeho ase. 12 hours electricity thake na, 30-40 degree gorom, office jete lage 2 ghota. Kaaj kore taka ante kaaj korar cheye beshi jhamela. Kunu prokar support nai, na mentalluy, na infrastructure goto. Valo kunu education center nai. Beshirbhag look self learned. So, ami marattok ashabdi BD'r software and design inductries niya. Ektu nurturing hoile je ki hobe ta vaba e joi na. We will rock, thats sure!

Clean & simple, using as little visual elements as need, maintaining hierarchy, appealing to eye, super easy for the end user. If u could do that, I think you are creative at ur work.

i saw in your skills that you specialize in CSS3 as well.

I have recently come across this technology but have not yet fully put into practice, honestly speaking, i didn't feel any need to research for this technology to put into practice because I can easily get my work done through CSS2 and its almost compatible with every known famous browsers.

i am not saying that CSS3 wouldn't be helpful, its just that I don't know about it much yet. I would be pleased if you can shed some light on it and tell us why should we switch to CSS3 and its compatibility with other browsers.

Mr. Shamoon,

Thanks you've look at my skills.

Anybody knows CSS, is 1day effort to know the CSS3. It's not NEW technology, it's just some IMPORTANT modification/addition/deletion some piece of selectors, values etc etc on existing CSS. So, anybody can be so called SPECIALIZED (like me ;-)) on CSS3.

You "don't feel any need to research for this technology to put into practice because I can easily get my work done through CSS2 and its almost compatible with every known famous browsers."

Look, we can still work with TABLE BASED LAYOUT (some web sites still have table based layout, and thats pretty fine), anything wrong with that? It's all compatible with every known famous/infamous browsers. And much more easy to get done any kind of web work. Rite? Then why do we use CSS?

Just an example why we should use CSS3. Suppose u need a liquid, rounded-corner box with shade. How much work you have to do that without CSS3? And how much work you have to do that with CSS3?

To get know about CSS3, please check http://www.css3.info/. It's a great site to start CSS3.
