5.0 out of 5 stars If you want a professional site you need this book!, 7 May 2002
By A Customer
This book may be expensive but it's worth every penny.

The CD that comes with it contains 50 site templates which look modern and professional. Home page designs and second level pages are included and the book gives diagrams of the way each page is set up (html tables) and explanations of each design. As files are included in psd (Photoshop) format, everything can be edited to your heart's content. The CD also contains the Javascript CD Cookbook 3rd Edition, the HTML/CSS Developer's Resource Guide and trial versions of some of the best software for web design - Photoshop, Fireworks, Flash and Homesite.

The book is richly illustrated (in black and white, with a full-colour insert of the template designs) throughout and takes you through all the stages of creating a professional site.

Don't buy this book if you're after an explanation of html. For me it was a refreshing change NOT to see this in a web design book! Instead you'll get advice on comping designs, using tables for layout, design tips/tricks and site usability.

For me, this is the best web design book I've seen in ages. I also recommend the Non-Designer's Web Book (Robin Williams/John Tollett) and Web Design Tools & Techniques (Peter Kentie).

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stuff, 22 Feb 2003
I was a little wary of getting this book, as one or two books that I've ordered recently have not really been what I was looking for, although they were quite interesting. This is exactly what I was looking for. Design help - not HTML and lessons about what the Internet is.

The templates are very professional looking and editable and the text is very well laid out and easy to read and understand.

Not coming from a design background, I can sense that this book is going to help me a lot.

3.0 out of 5 stars professional today, but tomorrow?, 16 Nov 2004
By P. A. Murphy (London, U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I got back into Web design in April 2004. The last site I built was in '99 using Perl and HTML. I had a lot of catching-up to do. Hence my purchase of this book. It describes today's industry-standard practice very well and provides you with templates which help you emulate this pratice. But is this really what you want? Computing - especially internet-related computing - is a fast-moving industry. We must design and build with one eye on what the future holds. Otherwise, today's professional looking site is tomorrow's obsolete one - failing to work properly in the latest popular user agent. This book does not pay much attention to important, forward-looking standards like CSS, ECMA-script and XML.
