Note: This is a work in progress. I've tried to place examples of what I've seen recently in here, but I can't remember it all. If you've noticed something that I've missed, PM me and let me know. ~ Thanks, MD
What NOT to post @ Design & Media...
- Questions about web scripting (PHP, Perl, JavaScript, ASP, CGI, etc.) and questions relating to web/database integration, software & setup, and maintenance. (MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, etc.). These belong in Software Programming & Web Scripting.
- Questions about connecting to the internet, networking, and problems with web browsers. The first two belong in Networking & Compatibility, the last in System & Software.
- Anything not directly related to Design and/or media which would be better served in another forum (!read descriptions!).
What should be posted @ Design & Media...
- Questions related to the actual design of web pages (HTML, CSS, images, etc.) and their associated applications' uses (BBEdit, Dreamweaver, GoLive, etc.).
- Questions related to programs used for layout/presentation and their associated applications' uses (InDesign, Quark, etc.).
- Questions relating to graphics and their associated applications' uses (Photoshop, Fireworks, Renderman, Maya, Bryce, etc.).
- Questions relating to video and their associated applications' uses (iMovie, Final Cut, Logic, etc.).
- Questions relating to audio and their associated applications' uses (Garageband, etc.).
