You can EASILY design yours if I can design my own website. That's a promise.
Don't get me wrong, I know what I like when it comes to art direction and graphic design. It's one of the things I pride myself on...having a good eye. But creating it, designing myself, well that's where I begin the run and hide dance.
Even with many new 'build it yourself' website creators out there flourishing, I still cannot wrap my hands around design. I'm a word guy. I love the twenty six letters. Those I can handle (hopefully you think so.)
But when it comes to colors (which can be of an infinite number) and where to put AdSense ads and where to put banners and how to make banners...um, I usually look for help. And lots of it.
Thankfully, there are places out there that have figured that out. They realize ever more than others that even having easy tools at my disposal DOESN'T mean I'm going to come out on the other end with a product that I love. That's why God made Graphic Designers! And why I rely on them so much.
Again, this is my opinion, but I have no problem being very good at just writing. It's okay with me that I can't design my own website entirely by myself. First step is admitting you have a problem, isn't it$%:
Lucky for me and for you, the programs that enable better and better looking web design are always in development.
