2.0 out of 5 stars Try Checking Elsewhere, 25 Feb 1999
By A Customer
The artwork in this book is not very good at all. The author's use of color is appaling.

I'm a web design/graphic arts student, and I think the best way to design web graphics is to first take a few art courses, especially in color and 2-D design. Then learn the technical aspects of putting the designs on the web. You can't get it all from a book.

This is borne out by the fact that here are millions of web pages out there, put only about 5% of them are aesthetically appealing.

If you need to get quick design ideas from a book to do a "quick and dirty" web page, check out the ideas in the book, "Creating Killer Web Sites," or browse the Graphic Design section of a bookstore.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unoriginal and not worth the money., 29 Dec 1997
By A Customer
Luckily, my bookstore all but reads the book to you in comfy lounge areas before you make a purchase. The ridiculous price tag, coupled with the lack of information in this book, is only topped by the fact that most of lynda's designs are, well, unappealing in the least. More specifically, they're downright ugly.
