I’m planning on attending a job fair at my college to look for Web design interships. I want to bring a portfolio along with my resume but I don’t want to lug my laptop around. What should I do? Should I make an online portfolio for this occassion and supply them a link or print out screen shots/pictures of the work I’ve done on quality photo paper and arrange a portfolio that way?
The people interviewing you probably don’t want to be forced to look at your work, so you are right that bringing along your laptop is a bad idea.
I don’t think carrying a formal portfolio with you is a good idea. It’s a bit pushy. I would hand them a few examples of your work on good quality paper (not photo paper, it’s too bulky). If they seem interested you can then offer to show them some other work.
What you do take depends largely on how well written your present work is. For instance, if you have coded directly in HTML, CSS and javascript then I would put examples of your work on a CD and hand it to them at the interview. Make sure that all your code validates and tell them that.
However, if you have used programs like FrontPage I would avoid letting them see your source code. Such programs create horrible code.
Good luck.
How is anyone here supposed to know that?
I can tell you about one.
Me.
I’m starting an online magazine and I don’t have a great grip of web design. Where do I even begin looking for a designer that can make me a good magazine site?
I would suggest that you put your job requirements on sites like http://GetaFreelancer.com/ .
YA Guidelines do not allow business solicitations, so hope others will respect that when posting.

Hi, I want to start a business website for the services I deliver off-line in a city. It needs to be a point of contact for all my on-line activities. In this case, If I want to start a website for business development, do I need to register a business address? What are the basic things that I need to fulfill before I can start an on-line business using Internet? I reside in Andhra Pradesh State, India. Please also mention the legal procedures too.
Staff that are I.T. pros then the rest will follow have faith
I heard a lot about them working on Middle East and Australia projects. Couple of my friends in the corporate world are using their services. Do you know anyone in the team, who I can contact?
Redwood Interactive is a newly formed company barely one and half year old…started by some of the best professionals in the Industry. They only take work from their contacts…not taking any work if you go directly with them.
best way to reach them is only if you have contacts, because they never respond to their generic contact email.
I’d like to use a free web design template I found, but the Creative Commons license says I have to leave the designer’s link on the website. If I am tweaking the design (color, size, layout, etc.) is the design still protected under this license?
In other words, how far does the design need to change before it stops being the original copyrighted material? Or does it ever?
Till it becomes unrecognisable. And the changes must also be in the code, not just the face
Hello.
I know a little HTML, but a lot of new websites seem entirely designed in Flash. How is this done? What is the best program to use, and what is the best way to learn how to create sites like these.
I have a graphics background, but am a newbie to web design. I don’t want to invest in an HTML course only to discover that it has been overtaken by something new!
Please help

It’s obviously made in flash. Flash is going out of style. If you know HTML you should go into the CSS & Jquery direction.
I want to design a ecommerce website, where can I get a developer? I mean to develop with zen-cart, is zen-cart good? I want to sell nike sneakers and polo T-shirts, I used to have a website for Nike sports shoes sales www.savegear.com. but I want it a new look. Can anyone help?

No Zen-cart. Useless. Have your own cart, "made to measure"…

Whats a good program to use for graphics design?
Depending on the kind of graphics that you are interested in designing. If you want to make your own illustrations and graphics without much editing of current pictures, then you can use Adobe Illustrator CS3 (it’s awesome i bet). If you want to modify pictures to the killing, then you should use Adobe Photoshop (it’s just made for this). If you are interested in making animations like the flash intros you see on websites, then go for Adobe Flash CS3.
If you want to modify movies and make some kinda film tricks, then you can go for Adobe After Effects (you wouldn’t believe what you can do with this).
Hope I helped
