Hey Everybody,
I'm fairly new to this site, so please pardon me if this is not the appropriate place to post this question...anyway, I'm very seriously considering a new career in web design, and I'm wondering: is this the sort of field in which one can become a professional by being self-taught, or is an actual web design degree necessary for success? I've heard a number of differing opinions on the matter from non-experts in my personal life...I have the self-discipline and drive to go either route, but I'd like to get some input from a few working professionals before I choose a path.
Thanks for taking the time to read my thread.
