Edit: yes i am serious, if you're managing your own blog then thats the simplest web designing you've done.

are you kidding me? you can make and manage a blog with just wordpress! you /don't/ even need to do any
actual designing much less coding. in web designing you have to take a lot of stuff into consideration.

that's like saying you can work on magazine covers just because you know photoshop...

I think about graphic design or web design is that its getting easier for anyone to figure out how to do it. It will be harder to land a job right after college. I wouldn't recommend getting a degree in web designing or graphic arts.

Pardon the ignorance   :-[


What would you recommend to someone who cannot draw well? I am in my last year of high school and I need to choose between graphics designing, web designing or animations? I don't have the talent for drawing or painting so maybe slash out the animations. So, what do you recommend?

By the way, which course would make me richer from the said courses? LOL.

PS. if something is wrong, please point it out and don't hesitate to tell me <insert laughing meme face here>  :D

Web design is pretty easy but won't make money.

^ That. Graphic arts should be fine. It has more varieties than what you think.

As for drawing, if you have passion for it - essentially that's the first requirement, then you should start drawing. I have no knowledge on how to properly do the steps but you can google and YouTube which I'd recommend. There is also computer drawing in PhotoShop which is very impressive.

I think you guys are underestimating web designing:

sure, that may be exaggerated. But i can certainly say having skills on web design can give you good money
while you study. Someone in my Web design class (all we do is design though, no php no nothing :-\) earns
herself $15 per page or something like that. forgot the details on how complex the coding she does is. but
to me that's decent money.
