Re: How did you start?

When I was 14 I started web design as a hobby as I created a fan site for my favourite band No Doubt.

After leaving school I decided I wanted to do web design as a profession and did an IT course at college. After 4 years at college though, we did absolutely nothing about web design!

I learnt it all myself anyway, and at age 20 I got my first full time job as a web designer, showing that if you've got a good portfolio you don't need qualifications to do it
