I am a Graphics Web Designer based in New Jersey and Massachusetts. I specialize in Photoshop, CSS, and XHTML . My designs emphasize creativity and simplicity. Functionality and accessibility should be able to be achieved without compromising simplicity nor design. Designs and layouts should be based on web standards allowing all audiences an equal opportunity to experience a site that is intuitive.

Think
The first step to a great design is to not take a step at all. The most important part of design is planning. Everything should have a purpose. Think about the layout in your head and map where everything will be and why. Wrap the design around content, not vice versa.
Design
The purpose of design is to make a point, to emphasize the important parts. A page's design can be unique and creative while being user friendly at the same time. Keep a healthy mix of wild and conservative. Don't get attached to the first idea you get.
Code
One of the most important things is to not let the restrictions of code restrict your design, especially when with CSS there are no restrictions. I assure you every bump in the CSS road has been fixed one way or another. Coding can be time consuming and exhausting, but the final product is definitely worth the wait.
Clean
And finally it's clean up time. All the trials must go and all the code and images must be optimized and organized. This helps later when you come back to the work for maintenance, and you will not leave other programmers and designers in the dark when it comes time to change or upgrade. Besides, knowing that your code is clean and organized gives it a great aesthetic feel.
