Thanks, everybody, for your advice to me on pursuing a career in web design. So the general consesus seems to be, I am going to have a VERY hard time making a living out of being a web designer? I must admit, I was very disappointed to read this, as I would have thought that with the internet being as big and popular as it is, there would have at least been SOME opportunity to get my foot in the door. I mean, what about all these jobsites who have web designer jobs advertised? Wouldn't I even have a chance with them either?

I really do want to make a living out of web design, with a view to perhaps going on to learn PHP etc. But given such discouraging, bleak news, I am beginning to doubt now whether it really WOULD be worthwhile having a go. This is a great shame, and I am left now wondering if there is ANY field of employment that I would have a chance in?
