Site Layout Designing with Photoshop

To be a good designer/coder, it takes a while, you really need to get the basics of all the programs youd use, like photoshop dreamweaver flash and all that good stuff before you try to make some websites.

Then you should find a feel for the styles of webdesign that are out there and try to add your own taste to it.

I learned by going through tutorials from pixel2life.com of just basics.
