Web Page Design for Designers

The purpose of this site is not to teach people how to produce web
pages. There is little mention of HTML or any other technical stuff
other than in passing. It is assumed that the reader already has a
grasp of HTML programming, or has made the decision to use one of the
new WYSIWYG web page editors.
It is aimed at people who are already involved with design and

Illustrator and have discovered that designing web pages is something
quite different.
