New Interactive Web Developer Course!

web developer

Hi,

I am happy to announce my new Interactive Web Developer course. This package covers everything you need to be a web developer.

What makes it special is the interactive quizzing component, that reinforces the video lessons as you go. Over 350 videos, 900 quiz questions and 40 projects.

Check it out at the introductory price – it’s the best training course I’ve ever created.

New Course Package due out within 2 weeks.

Hi,

As I mentioned in a previous blog post, I will soon be retiring many of the courses in the video store.

… For those who still need say the Dreamweaver CS6 course, it will be there, but generally pushed to the background. At the same time, there are other courses that are just going to be replaced altogether.

Big Changes

I would say that the biggest change will be the format in which we provide training. Rather than download to own, we will be offering lifetime streaming access to the new content. It seems to be how people want it. In other news, I will be introducing a new style of style of training; something I call ‘immersive interactive’ training.

More to come.

Massive Purge of the Courses

Hi!

I built my first video course in about 2003, and have been retiring courses over the years as needed.

Now that time has come again, where within the next few months, I will be retiring all of the older courses from the site.

… In fact, I plan to stop selling the vast majority. Yes, some still want to learn Dreamweaver CS3, CS5 and CS6 but their time has passed and so should the courses.

New courses for 2015-2016

I am currently building new courses that will be out very soon. Not only will they be up to date with the latest languages (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, PHP) and development tools, they are created with a whole new style of teaching, that no one is doing.

… These are easily my best courses yet.

Expect to see the new courses to hit the store in October 2015.

Thanks!

My new book is on Amazon!

build-your-websites-book

Hi,

My new beginners book on web design will released June or July in 2015. You can pre order it now on Amazon. It should also be in bookstores in the UK and the US at the same time.

I’ve also set up an author’s page on Amazon: amazon.com/author/stefan

I have to tell you, with all these ways to stay connected to people, I am having a hard time to decide which way to go! For example, you can find me on:

… And I have a Facebook account etc.

If you are interested, probably best to catch me on twitter and my blogs.

Downloading the Dreamweaver CS6 Trial

Hi,

We have a huge Dreamweaver CS6 course (10 hrs of videos!) but these days, it can be hard to find a trial of Dreamweaver CS6. Adobe wants you to get into their cloud version of Dreamweaver – Dreamweaver CC.

In our Dreamweaver CS6 course, you learn much, much more than Dreamweaver … it’s really a beginners web design course. It’s also very designer centric … you build great looking websites in this course.

That said, it’s hard to learn without Dreamweaver CS6 … though the latest Dreamweaver CC is very similar, there are still differences that might trip up a beginner. So the solution is to download the trial of the new Dreamweaver CC and deal with the differences, or you could buy an older copy of Dreamweaver CS6 – be sure it’s legal!

Hidden Treasure!

But hidden deep in Adobe’s site, is a place to download a free trial of Dreamweaver CS6:

https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html

I just downloaded it today (April 17th 2015) … so you should be good.

Why bother? There just a lot of great stuff in the Dreamweaver CS6 course and some people rather just own Dreamweaver CS6 and not rent Dreamweaver CC. Then again, you don’t need Dreamweaver to build great sites.

Top 3 Image Editors – alternatives to Photoshop

Hi,

Photoshop is powerful, but it’s overkill for 99% of web developers/designer needs. It’s not expensive at $9.99/month for individuals, and $19.99/month for business use. But over a few years, this could add up!

The key point is that most web professionals need maybe 10% of Photoshop’s power – if that much. There are easier to learn, very capable cheaper alternatives. A few free ones too!

The short list:

  1. Paint.net – Windows only. But free!
  2. The Gimp – Strange name but powerful and free! Runs on Mac and Windows.
  3. Xara Photo and Graphic Designer – Not free, but you can buy it for $89.99. I use this all the time. It’s bloody fast!

… And there are others. The point is, there is more to Photoshop in the image editing world.

New Video Store Skin is Live!

Hi,

Finally, after a few years of complacency, we’ve updated the video store! I hope you like the new look! There might be a few bugs here and there, given how big a change we made, but it should all be resolved and tip-top in a few days.

New courses coming out soon too.

Changes to the KillerSites Training Courses

Hi!

I’ve been teaching web development for over tens years now, and things have changed a lot in that time. Besides web development itself, the WAY people want to learn has also changed.

The first thing that I’ve done to respond to these changes, is to provide a far more advanced subscription based training service: webmentor.org. Those of you familiar with the old Killersites Library, will appreciate the upgrade you find on Webmentor.org.

The KillerVideoStore in the Future

Subscription based services is common these days, but there are still people who want to own the courses. For you, I will keep offering my courses right here on killervideostore.com … and now in three formats you can choose from:

  1. Digital download
  2. DVD’s mailed to you
  3. On USB thumbdrive

Whichever format you choose, you will have LIFETIME DOWNLOAD ACCESS to the courses you buy. So if (for example,) you loose them a year from now, you will be free to come back and download them all again.

Thanks,
