Hey /gd/
I would like some feedback on a project, but I must I'm a web developer not a graphic designer. Or at least I'm trying to become one. I landed an internship with a small company but I'm not working with someone more advanced, I'm building a small site completely and putting my name on it when done. I want to make the best of it but really don't have design experience.
I don't want to do a massive overhaul, and I'm not quite in the final stage but you can see where I'm going with this. "Logo" will actually be replaced with an image that has yet to be produced. Be brutal if you must. Thanks
and heres the footer.
Like I said design isn't my thing but I want to make the best of it.
Is this bait? The easiest way to make a proper design when you're not a designer is not to overdo it. Use simple colour schemes, be generous with whitespace. Black on white is probably best.

Nope, not bait. Just unskilled/inexperienced. So your recommendation would be to pare back the outside containers and let the header, footer, and main content container be by itself? Black and white isn't too boring?

You don't use pure white and black. Think (250,250,250) and (10,10,10). And by god, watch a youtube video or something on web design cause got damn, my 10 year old sister could do a better job.

Ok well she probably could. I have the skills to build near anything if I'm just told what someone wants. Would you have any recommendations or am i so wretched that any of them will do

That last half yeah.
And since you know CSS/JS, you can eat through the code to learn. Take some of the things are like from these sites and use them in your own as practice. You can see what works together and what doesn't. http://www.awwwards.com/websites/clean/

> Making shit that looks 100x better than this
> Not an internship in the world that thinks I'm advanced enough
> Know HTML, CSS (SASS), JS / JQuery, Bootstrap, Ajax, unit testing with Mocha + Chai, and a bit of Ruby on the side
> Not enough they say
> Go learn PHP they say
> Wordpress is hot right now they say
> We only want interns that can make Wordpress themes they say
jesus fuck OP please tell me that your internship isn't paid or I'll just kill myself now
