Responsive Web Design is without a doubt one of the Web's biggest buzzwords for 2012.

Understand the workflow involved in getting your site ready for the mobile era.

Ecommerce Web Design: Six Hot Trends
Head-turning ecommerce web design is pivotal for the success of your online store as attention-grabbing pages publicise your brand. Just like any other creative sphere, web design is a fickle industry that constantly undergoes changes. With the development of new tools like HTML5 and CSS3, new design trends start to take off. Below there are six popular trends in creative web design that can be incorporated into your own web page.
What to Consider When Designing Your New Website
An active online presence is a necessity for most every company, but that presence must also be complimented with an eye-catching and user-friendly design. When you’ve decided that it’s time to give your website a face-lift, take a step back and answer a few questions before approaching web design firms.
You must first determine why you’ve chosen to redesign your website. Is the design outdated? Is it uninviting? Is it packed with Flash® (that hinders the viewing experience on an iPhone)? Would you like it to be more search engine friendly?

Book to customize the appearance of your Moodle theme
Packt is pleased to announce a new book on Moodle that is aimed at helping users create a Moodle Theme right from the graphic design stage to the finished Moodle Theme. Written by Paul James Gadsdon, this book will offer design examples to administrators, designers or teachers and help them create appropriate themes for different student age groups and styles.
Moodle is a highly extensible virtual learning environment and is used to deliver online teaching and training materials. Theming is one of the main features of Moodle that can be used to customize your online courses and make them look exactly how you want them to.
Users will first learn the concept of Moodle themes and how they work. They will then learn how to create themes for Moodle, the tools that are required for the job, and how to download new themes from various resources on the Internet. Along with the creation of themes, they will also be shown how to choose and change an existing Moodle theme, and test the changes they have made.
Project management: Designer versus Programmer
It’s ShowTime again, the project manager looks grim, the programmer struts in “I’m gonna break ya” … the designer stares him down, the bell rings… smackdown, and its only morning tea break!
If your design studio resembles a scene from wrestlemania, take heart, you’re not alone! There is mortal combat out there between two creative forces butting heads over the creation of an online masterpiece. The Project manager aka “the Ref” is breaking into a sweat over burgeoning budgets, wasted time and a design project that looks light-years from delivery.
The two parties that pay for the showdown, the client and the design studio owner, are stuck in the audience looking on wringing hands, the anxiety levels are rising. The problem is that once the cycle gets going it’s hard to stop, the lateness of delivery looks bad to the client, upcoming projects get pushed back to a later starting date. Clients complain and do your business untold damage as your reputation wavers. Stress levels peak at all levels of your business, even the work experience kid is having a crap time, productivity and staff moral are non-existent, and the boss is sweaty palmed and manic. Profits dry up, no movie night this month for the staff, hey that’s cool, they hate each other anyway.
So why the opposition?
