Any Web Designers Here ? -How to Build a Mockup Website ?

Posted: 12 Nov 2013 12:22 PM PST

Before I ask my question, here is some background. I recently picked up some PHP with MySQL skills. And then went through some basics of HTML and CSS just for the sake of it. I can see HTML and understand it, but I don't want to spend time coding with HTML and CSS. I'd like to concentrate on the PHP part of it. At the same time, I do want to have a decent looking site to work with and leave the more flashy design to someone else. Searching on the net leads me to believe I have 4 options available to me -

1. Do it yourself with HTML and CSS -  not interested
2. Use a WYSIWYG editor - I have been advised against this as it outputs bad code.
3. Use Photoshop and convert the PSD to HTML/CSS - too much work
4. Use a framework like Bootstrap - This one is interesting.

So, if you are a web designer, what advice would you give me ? Remember, I don't want the best looking damn site. Just the ability to build something quickly and get on with my PHP.

The general cricket discussion thread

Posted: 12 Nov 2013 12:13 PM PST

Why this thread?

So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread...

Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread...

Will start with one post

Misbah & Taibu seem to competing with each other for the prize of who can bat more defensively....

The event is set to take place in a historical building bombed by the Luftwaffe airplanes during WWII.

Hinting towards a WW2 setting? Doesn't sound like a good idea. Machine guns vs. guy with knife in a upclose and personal killing game.

New Girl (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

decent show. not as bad as http://broadbandforum.in/television/82040-dont-trust-b-apartment-23-a/

some episodes are super lame. a few have some really funny moments. Zooey Deschanel plays the character of well pretty much herself.

i have no idea why they killed the character of coach and replaced it with a dumb black guy who fails to play the stereotype!
