webdesign

I have my first web design internship interview next week, and with that comes making a portfolio.

How do you all recommend this? Should I print them out as you see them online? Does code need to be added in?


Also, if you have any tips on interviews, those would be appreciated as well.

what exactly is a web platform, is it considered URLs, HTTP, REST, HTML, CSS, JavaScript?

I've spent a lot of time knowing the ins and outs of my lj theme 'tranquility ii'. One of the things I have never been able to figure out is how to embed a font from my own personal font library so that that anybody viewing my blog will see my entries with my selected font, regardless whether they have a copy of it on their computer.

 

The font in question here is called Chandler, a vintage typewriter style font. From what I understand, embedding requires that a true type font be used. Is there a quick and easy way to convert a bitmap font to the required format? If so, would I be pursuing this objective in vain seeing as I don't know where to begin to embed a font for my livejournal entries?

Does anyone know of any web design/graphic design school that offer distance learning?? Preferably in texas.

Hey all.
What do you use to embed video on your websites? I mean, no youtube or vimeo, something you upload.
I used to use Flash, of course, but I'd like it to be apple-friendly. I tried Video-js but it's not working somehow. This is the page where I want to use it, which isn't working well now (2 of those videos play on chrome and safari but not on firefox, even though the code is exactly the same):

Thank you!

Does anyone know of any Texas Colleges thar offer a Web Design/Development degree through Distance Learning?

I use to design websites all the time back in my early teen years, using html "cheat sheets" and used tables to line up websites. They looked nice for that time.

As the years went by, times have changed - So has web design. Websites look a lot different then they use to. I will be taking classes in university based around Web Design later on, and was curious if anyone had ideas on how to brush up on those skills.

I noticed quite a few people using Adobe Dreamweaver to create code. Is there any other programs used or any books/websites to look into?

Any pointers/suggestions would be mighty helpful.

Hi all.
I hope you guys can help me, google wasn't that big of a friend in this case.

So I'm making a menu area for my website with the following characteristics:

. The area is defined by an image that's randomized from a selection of images with the same size.
. Over the image there are the menu items, in white and always the same.
. When you roll over a menu item, a red bar appears between the image and the type, making it clearer. If you're not rolling over, the current page is selected in the menu in the same way.

Now here's my problem: I want the red bar to have a multiply blending mode, not a simple red block or transparency. Since the image is random, this has to be a property of the bar, regardless of what under it. Is this doable in css? Js? Multiply is basically a digital equation, so I hope it's possible.

Or you can just mock me if there's something essential I'm forgetting.
HALP.

Hi there! I'm working on a project for a class Introduction to Programming. I'm using Eclipse to do a basic program - well supposed to be basic. It says I have some errors in the bit I've already coded but I can't seem to be able to figure it out.

Would there be anyone willing to help me or where you would suggest I look? The problem is with the scanner and the if statement.

I would love to hear lol...
(I use it myself but not to use/give/skin for someone else!)
Seriously, I have a hard time articulating myself on this and could use some help.
And feel free if you disagree! Just let you count the ways...
