Web design ecommerce question. How do I set up individual accounts for each customer?

I am a web design student and I have to set up an ecommerce site. I have the shopping cart thing down, but I would like to set it up so each person can create there own login/account. I really have no idea how to do this. Can someone help me out please?

wow, that’s incredibly vague. You should include things like what language you’re programming in, ideally post some code along with the question. I’m not trying to chew you out or anything, just trying to help you ask future questions a little more clearly. That being said…

Basically you’re going to need to make an HTML form with some inputs so the user can input whatever data you need for a user. Also, you need to set the action attribute on the form to the name of the file that will process the information (php, python, jsp, etc file).


<form action="file.php">
<input type=’text’ name=’name’/>
<input type=’password’ name=’password’/>
<input type=’text’ name=’email’/>
<input type=’submit’/>
</form>

clicking the submit button will push the input’s data to file.php. Depending on what language you’re using, you will use different syntax to get those parameters and enter them into the database. I’d at least need to know what language you’re programming in to help you out anymore. good luck, hope that was some help ;)

Any graphic design book recommendations for a beginner?

I just got accepted into a graphic design program and I’ll be starting in January ’08. In the meantime, I’d like to read up on graphic design to get a bit of a head start and prepare myself for the upcoming schoolyear. I’ve never really taken any graphic design courses, nor have I read any books on the subject… So I’m a complete beginner! Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here’s one of my favorites

Photo Retouching Skin in Photoshop

Photo Retouching Skin in Photoshop. Its hard to see the true quality of the image as youtube over compresses the file but i think the point is made. What you can’t see is that unlike most retouchers that blur skin till its smooth, i recreate prefect skin texture, again hard to see in this video.

Many people have left comments thinking i just blur the skin, and that is not what i did. I did an a small blurring on the entire image and then created a mask just for certain areas where there was hair (or fuzz) on the cheek, not the entire face. You cannot see in this video that all original skin texture is retained.

What is graphic design?

A lo-fi vox pop made in 2002, that asks people on the streets of Melbourne the basic questions about graphic design. By Studio Pip and Co. and Dogma Productions with Andrew Pegler.

This short film was made to gather the general publics view of graphic design for the not-for-profit organisation Australian Graphic Design Association. All permissions were asked and granted from the various respondents. All respondents were thanked after their response.

This film is an invaluable learning tool to students of design and was posted on youtube for education and non-profit purposes. The idea, production and responses were supplied gratis.

Our thanks again to all involved, especially to all the members of the public who willingly contributed their ideas and opinions on graphic design in the public space.
