This list mostly covers the technical programming side of being a designer. According to the list many programmers I know would pass with flying colors. However their designs, if you can call them that, make one want to crawl in a hole a die of pixel poisoning.

I’m an attorney with no formal education about design or arts and passed all the questions above, scoring . I used to say I’m intermediate web designer, can I call myself mature designer?

Like some individuals here I appreciate your intent, but I highly disagree with many of the items on this list. Your opinion regarding what constitutes a designer and a wannabe are highly subjective, and you don’t seem to understand the “fine line” between a designer and a programmer. Seems like you have a little bit to learn yourself.

Lotta people crying a river because you called them out with this list. *lol* Kinda glorious. TOO many people think of themselves as designers and developers nowadays. Everyone and their mom thinks they can make websites, charge for it, and they call themselves “freelance.” The titles are abused, and I’d say more than half of the so called web site creators out there today are just hacks.

Awesome – I passed all! Like Oliver Treed up there, I am young but “mature” :P

Thanks for the quick post – I love the comments suggesting about AJAX, ActionScript, one layer PSD’s, and FTP’s…great ideas.

I agree with many of these, but disagree with some. I consider myself an intermediate web designer, but I didn’t know a couple of these things. I believe you have to understand what you NEED to understand and be WILLING to learn and expand and become better.

Just my two cents :)
