Designing is nothing but a sense of a person. If you are in a position that you have to decide about a person, it is one of the points that you may check a design of the person. May be the design is not too much good or not acceptable, but try to find the basic instinct of the person by the designing. It may call about the person to you. When a person is going to be a designer he/she should check the self creative sense first. The knowledge of software, the lot of tools is one kind of essential thing but the creative sense is other. We are basically the designers are feeling that we have a lot of knowledge of designing software, tools etc. so that I will be the best and when the person goes to build something he/she realise the actual fact. Software/tools are nothing but a brash, art-papers using by the painters and how it is to be used. Everyone can get the knowledge of how to use the brushes and papers to make a good painting but a good painter can create the design which will be feasible and marketable. So if you don't have that kind of creative sense then it will be very tough for the next of your career and on the other hand if you have then it will be the plus point going to be a designer. Designing is not only included with Web designing but also logo designing, banner designing and others. Please test yourself on which part of the designing are you much familiar with and go ahead. For creating Web Template, company logo you should have knowledge of computer and the many types of designing related software like Adobe Photoshop, Flash, Corel Draw, Adobe Illustrator etc. If you are a web designer you should have the knowledge of html, CSS, JavaScript etc. You may use any editor like Dreamweaver, Front Page these types of softwares. These are the basic things to perform your role as a Web Designer.
The profession of Web Designing is not an easy task in the professional life. It included with full joy and sorrow in a designer's career. You have to work hard first and always aleart about what is asking by the present market. A designer can satisfy the client by his/her beautiful designing work but there is also a limitation. You could not satisfy your client 100 times out of 100. It is possible that 2 or 3 times your design would be cancelled by your client. It could be happened more than 3 times or 99 times out of 100. But don't you feel that you are not a good designer. Always try to make something better than previous. Try to unlock your own creativity completely with the market requirements. You should ask yourself that you can create better designing or not. If not, just switch your career and profession as soon as possible because it will ruin you or your career but if yes, just try to work very carefully with your creativity and it is sure that a day you can find yourself that you are a better designer than your competitors. So think properly and go gently. Don't be frustrated in your life, because you may be not able to create anything with your frustration so built your confidence first which should be much higher than your competitors, it can put you at the top most position than your competitors very soon.
You may compare the designing profession with the profession of the music director or singer etc. They are always trying to make their movies and songs good but you all know that very few movies or songs could catch the people's heart.
