You should approach only an experienced web design firm to design your website. Lack of proper experience in web designing will create bad web designs that may tarnish your impression before the users.
Here a few common web design mistakes made that you have to avoid.
Websites which are slower are not appreciated by the visitors. Your website should download fast, or else the visitors won’t stay long and may go to the website of your competitor.
The layout of the webpage should not be cluttered and the navigation links should not be placed in scattered manner. They should be placed in an organized way.
The web content should be free from typing and grammatical errors. The content for the webpage should be placed in a proper format; neither too big, nor too small. It can be broken down to paragraphs, with the needed bullet points and sub headings.
Give adequate importance to the white space on the web page.
The colors which are used should be pleasing to the eye.
Don’t install any built in music arrangement which cannot be controlled by the visitor. The website should have buttons to control the music.
Avoid poor layouts that take away the beauty of the website.]]> Those who are not an expert in web designing can approach a web design firm to get the needed Web Design Services .

The stock script is the one you can find here: http://www.atproxy.net

What I want as an extra to that script is:
Speed checker (like on http://tech-faq.com/proxy.shtml & http://centurian.org)
Featured listing option (like on http://proxlists.com)
Country flag (like on http://centurian.org)
Total proxies, total deleted proxies and total hits given (like on http://centurian.org in the menu)

Since I'm not a good programmer (just starting a little bit, but still a rookie) I want to know if this is going to be hard... or not that hard. Normally I'd outsource some stuff to Nathan from O2Programming, but I need money for that first.

What do you programmers think about this? What are the easiest things that I should be able to do with my basic knowledge? Or is it nothing?

Know of any good other (cheaper) programmers too or not?]]> I'm willing to create a new proxy list (my last one was a success) but not just like all the others.. The stock script is the one you can find here: http://www.atproxy.net

I cycle 6 days a week. I cycle a lot. I cycle around 450km per week. I averaged 38kmph over 50km tonight, racing in at 5th place.

I am a 14 year old, attending Kapiti College, located in Paraparaumu, Wellington, New Zealand. I sat a Year 13 Web Design course earlier this year. I did not get to finish it (not due to incapability, due to other compulsory school-related involvement). I completed 1/3 of the course in less than 1/8 of the year. I will be resitting the course (which will not be interrupted) next year. I am also going to be sitting a Year 11 Maths exam, in a few weeks time. I am currently in Year 9.

I like things to happen. I like things to get done. I like things to get done properly. I see no reason why school should seem like a chore for 5 years. I see no reason why I should attend school, if I am not being challenged. I make my best attempts to undertake any challenges that are thrown my way.

I have an enjoyment and passion for both listening to and playing music (no, that doesn't mean hitting the play button). I strum along on both the guitar and the ukulele. I have also attempted the harmonica, with failure. Some things are really hard to self-teach, if you've got no understanding of what you should really be sounding like. Wink

So - tell me about you. I'm sure you've heard enough about me!]]>

Instructions
  1. Create a new document: Press Ctrl+N. Click OK.

    [attachment=16]
  2. Adjust the size of the stage: In the Properties Bar, next to "Size: 550 x 400 px," click "Edit..." For this example (you'll need to make a guess/calculate this for yourself in the future, dependant on how large you want your text and how much of it is required), enter the dimensions "200 x 50 px." Click OK.

    [attachment=17]
  3. Write some text: Press "T" (Text Tool) on your keyboard. Click anywhere on the stage and enter the text "Text Fade" into the textbox. In the Properties Bar, change the text size/font/colour. For this example, I have used size 48pt / Myriad Pro / Black. Press "V" (Selection Tool) on your keyboard. Select the text. Adjust X and Y to 0.

    [attachment=18]
  4. Fade the text: Right-click the text -> Convert to Symbol. Set Type to "Graphic." Click "OK." Click the arrow next to "Color Effect." Set Style to "Alpha." Click Insert -> Motion Tween. If prompted, click OK. Click on the 24th frame in the timeline. Select the text. Adjust Alpha to "0%."

    [attachment=19]
  5. Play the movie: Press Ctrl + Enter. If you have performed all of the above instructions correctly, your text should now fade out.



Project Ideas
  • Create an advert for your school/company to use to help attract new students/customers. You may want to make use of scenes.
  • Make a flash presentation explaining how to create a text fade. You are welcome to use any of the content in this tutorial, so long as it is not reprinted or republished. Use a mix of examples/screenshots and instructions. Make sure that everything is clearly readable, and that you allow enough time to both read and perform the instructions.

Instructions
  1. Create a new document: Press Ctrl+N. Click OK.

  2. Adjust the size of the stage: In the Properties Bar, next to "Size: 550 x 400 px," click "Edit..." Enter the dimensions "200 x 50 px." Click OK.

    [attachment=13]
  3. Draw a square: Press "R" on your keyboard (Rectangle Tool). Draw a square on the stage. Press "V" on your keyboard (Selection Tool). Click on the square. Click on the box next to the pencil, this adjusts your Stroke colour. Select the box with a red dash through it, this will ensure that your circle has no stroke. Click on the box next to the paint bucket, this adjusts your Fill colour. Choose any colour. Set the "Position and Size" to have the following values; X: 0, Y: 0, W: 50 and H: 50.

    [attachment=14]
  4. Shape tween the square into a triangle: Click Insert -> Shape Tween. Click on the 48th frame in the timeline. Press F6 (this inserts a keyframe, which will make your tween last for 48 frames - i.e. at 24 fps, frames per second, 2 seconds). Select the square. Press "Del" on your keyboard. Follow the instructions at "How to Create an Equilateral Triangle" to make a triangle. Click on the triangle. Adjust X to 150.

    [attachment=15]
  5. Play the movie: Press Ctrl + Enter. If you have performed all of the above instructions correctly, your square should move from left to right whilst morphing into a triangle.



Project Ideas
  • Make a ball bounce up and down. Make sure that it compresses slightly, as it hits the ground.
  • Draw a pencil. Make your pencil draw a border around the stage. You will need to use both motion and shape tweens in order to complete this project. Make sure that you use layers, they will make this project a lot easier for you. When you write, you do not always hold your pencil on the same angle. Keep this in mind.

Article distribution consists of writing an article and distributing it through ezines, article directories, blogs or possibly related newsletters, with an Author Bio (deep)linking to your website.

To make this process easier, I generally distribute articles using iSnare's article distribution service. There are other services out there that offer the same sort of thing. iSnare isn't performing as well as it used to.

All of the services that I have used seem to have pretty great restrictions/guidelines. The only rule that annoys me at iSnare is that all articles have to be at least 500 words long - no exceptions.

I would be interested in hearing your experiences with other similar services.]]>
