Dreamweaver

Tip to all “web designers” out there… If your online portfolio says you built a site using dreamweaver, what you are really saying is that you have no idea how to effectively code an HTML page.  Now, I know we all start somewhere and I will happily admit using the handy dandy software in the early days of Paravel.  I just think that if you are going to call yourself a web designer, or start a web design business you should be able to open up a text editor and code a basic HTML page.  

The point here is that even if you do use dreamweaver to build all your sites, it isn’t a good idea to broadcast that.  How would you feel if your surgeon’s experience failed to extend beyond a few hours each week playing Operation.  Granted, no one needs a PHD to build a website, but you should know what you’re working with.

What is it you wanted to say?
