Well I was thinking maybe I needed to take this ccourse before WEB design & profitable freelancing to learn all these basic things you need to know about WEB design and not only that. But overall am happy with this course. Learned much more about WEB design basics. Now i knowm more, but now needs to put it on to a paper. Practice these all things to become better. I would rate this course 5 of 5 but then there is no place for upgrade. Waiting for new and interesting courses. Good luck everyone!
