I'm a big time computer geek. Always have been. Always will be. I majored in Computer Information Systems - basically a degree that covers a large spectrum of technologies in business. Classes I did the best in were web development (basics - using HTML, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash), Adv. Web Development (building on the first class and adding in ASP.net to make dynamic websites), and VisualBasic.net, by the time I was able to take Adv. VB.net it was unavailable.
My designs were decent, thing with me is that I make sure that all the coding is perfect (or at least to me it is). I actually had many people ask me to look at their coding and stuff like that to make sure it worked or if it was the correct way.
I do like messing around with Fireworks, Photoshop. I need more work with Flash (would love to learn how to do ActionScripts in Flash), all we did in our class was how to move a ball around a screen basically.
I was building a small site for my parents for their coffee shop, however they had to close down the shop...so I didn't finish it.
I've been wanting to go back to school (maybe a Tech College or something) and doing the web development and/or programming courses for a specialization; money at the moment is quite tight, thats why I was looking for some DIY alternatives for right now. My career background right now is networking (which I really am not fond of) and Customer Service (sit behind the phone).
