About Blu, the designer -
I began web design when I was 15 years old, with Angelfire and Geocities sites. I learned by experimenting with the codes that their html editors would produce, and (admittedly) I borrowed codes from some sites I really liked in order to learn more about html and css. Up until I was 18, everything I had designed was purely on code only, everything was based on css, and html - no graphics. I enrolled in Info Tech when I was a sophmore at High School and there I had access to Photoshop and better HTML editors. I managed to convince my teacher to let me get these programs for my home computer, so I could practice with them. During that class, I learned more about HTML, CSS, ASP, Visual Basic, and programs to help me become a better designer. About 90% of what I know regarding codes and graphics is self-taught through trial and error, and I consider myself to be pretty good at what I do.

Tools I use for my work -
HTML Editors: Notepad, Namo Web Editor
Graphics Software: Photoshop CS2, Animation Shop 3, Image Ready CS2, Jasc Paint Shop Pro
Uploading Software: WS FTP LE and Microsoft Windows Built-In FTP Folders
Hosting: Shaw Cable Residential Internet Package
Operating System: Windows XP Pro Edition SP2
