I’m not the best web designer out there but here are a few tips i learned when i first started designing.

1. Layout must be viewable in any screen resolution. Most of you may be using 1024×768 resolution but not everyone else. The most common resolution used is 800×600 so make sure your layout can be viewed nicely at this resolution.
2. Header images should have small file size so it would load fast. Not everyone has DSL connection. The best thing to do is slice them.
3. Colors matter. I’m not very good with color combination so i use colors of the same shade or get schemes from Color Schemer
4. Font should be readable. Some people have a hard time reading small fonts so i suggest using 12px, it should be enough.
5. Organize.
6. Test your layout before uploading it. Try WAMP5. I recommend this for dial-up users. You don’t want to waste your precious internet card with a time consuming process of designing a layout. You can install Wordpress with WAMP5 and test your layout in it. :)

Well, that’s all i can remember at the moment. I’ll add things up when i remember them.
