Hi - I'm Jim Dobbs and that is me in the banner at the top of the page.
This site is my teaching 'portal' and links to other sites on the main topics listed below and then some more...
Most pages have links to external sites of interest that provide a service, have tutorials, provide dowloads or are just a good place to go to learn more about the subject...
The site is divided into the three main topics below and clicking the links below is a good place to start. For any other specific topic, go to the site map where everything is listed in alphabetical order.
Various lengths of course are offered at different venues. Understand tables, layers and divs for layout. Learn how to get webspace, domain names and how to upload files after building and testing your site. Find out how to get good rankings in search engines. More >>
Discover the techniques used by photographers to improve your photos or scans. From simple ehancements through to advanced layers and blending.

Improve your picture taking and then some basic enhancing using Photoshop. Includes downloading and managing your images, archiving and preparing images for print labs. More >>
Currently I am working on a series of video tutorials for web design and digital imaging which are introductions to some techniques and how to use both Dreamweaver and Photoshop.
Do you use You Tube - it is a good way to run videos on your site without having to upload them to your own server. You just embed the player in your pages and let them run from there.
