I'm a CS student with no web design experience. I've been volunteering with a local 501(c)(3) and at some point before I graduate I would like to roll out a new website for them. Does the thread have any recommendations on the best resources for teaching myself how to do this or advice before I commit myself to a project like this?

Scaramouche posted:Do you mean "design" in the sense of aesthetics, graphics, readability, photoshop, css, etc. or in the sense of "I've never touched HTML/PHP/ASP" (e.g. because your degree is entirely in ASM/Objective C and compiler optimization)? Because if it's the former, you can do a lot with Wordpress and a freebie theme. The theme kind of handles basic layout issues that you can just slap a logo onto and insert images into. Or hell, use Drupal/Django/etc. if you're feeling salty, though the theme developer audience is less developed. I mean design in the sense that I've never touched HTLM/PHP/ASP. The closest I've come was database class, but I worked solely on the SQL database and other team members did the PHP front end. Basically I want to start learning website development because it's going to be at least a year before I can take any classes on it. I figured building a new website here would be a good project to focus on but I'm unsure of what to look at to start learning.
