Which program(s) in 2014 should a teenager start with for their first site?

My 14-year-old daughter wants to make her first website. She is artistic and is familar with Photoshop and makes Youtube videos using iMovie. She has a Bamboo tablet and draws including with Manga Studio.
Should she start with something like Word Press (or....) and later learn.....
Dreamweaver? Or Muse? Or both? or...
I have seen one comment that Dreamweaver is for developers, and Muse for Designers. Then there are the "extras" like Edge Animate.
Although it is all very exciting, it seems to be a bit hard judging where to start. She intuitively picked up something like iMovie and apart from a bit of Scratch, has never really done anything on coding. Like kids her age, she tends to be intuitive about picking up things like Photoshop. But she would also probably want some "cool" stuff on the website sooner than later.
Any help much appreciated!

3. Learn html/css (Jon and osgood) - in what way?
HTML and css are the base code languages of the web. HTML is the structure (foundation/bones) of a page. It's a fairly simple language to learn...
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>This is a page</title>
</head>
<body>Hi there!</body>
</html>
The above is  an html page, it could be on any website. The page only says "Hi there", but it's a page and it includes all the necessary pieces that browsers require to render it for the viewer in front of their computer.
Learning how to add more information to that base skeleton is what I mean. There are tons of tutorial sites, books, you name it that go through the ins and outs of html available all over the place.
CSS works by styling the html of a page (the bold below)...
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<style>
body {background-color:red; font-size:30px;}
</style>
<title>This is a page</title>
</head>
<body>Hi there!</body>
</html>
That particular css tells the browser to make the page's background red and the "Hi there" text 30 pixels tall. There's tons of different ways to affect every single piece of html using css. Learning how css interacts with html is a huge part of web design.
A couple of good "basics" tutorials...

  • How can someone use a stolen iphone? does erasing the phone (which I feel like I should do) make it easier for the thief to use the iphone?  If I don't erase it, it doesn't seem like anyone should be able to use the phone because of my password.

    how can someone use a stolen iphone? does erasing the phone (which I feel like I should do) make it easier for the thief to use the iphone?  If I don't erase it, it doesn't seem like anyone should be able to use the phone because of my password. Also, is it possible to retrieve anything that has been sent to the phone (i.e. text messages) since it was stolen through icloud? The "find my iphone" app says the device is offline but it rings when I call my number -- any idea how that would be the case? Thanks!!

    You have a password, so good move on your part.  Whether you erase it or the thief does, they still get to use the iPhone as theirs.  Which is more important (pick one), protecting your data or punishing the thief?
    Ringing occurs at the carrier.  Chances are you're going to voicemail after only two or three rings.  If you have an iCloud backup also a good move.  Re-read my question in the first paragraph.

  • What card should my friend start with?

    My friend has been an Authorized User on my Capital Ome card for a nearly 10 months with perfect payment history and a 0% UTL. But that's all the credit she has. She wants to get one credit card on her own just to build her credit profile, but she leaves for the Air Force in a couple month so she definitely doesn't need anything fancy (her words).
    I suggested one with no Annual Fee (she agrees) with simple rewards. I suggested to her Chase Freedom, Discover It, or AmEx Everyday. What do you guys (and gals) think? Does she have a chance with these cards?

    ray8806 wrote:
    she leaves for the Air Force in a couple monthWhether or not they have any products of use to her right now she should join NFCU while she's eligible. As for a specific card, it will probably all depend on what she qualifies for at this point. If she can't get approved for unsecured then she may need to follow the standard suggestion of secured and/or a credit union with more lax approval criteria. ray8806 wrote:
    Oops, btw, according to Credit Karma FAKO, her credit score with Equifax and Transunion is 733.Unfortunately, those VantageScores really don't mean anything unless she's applying with a creditor that uses VantageScore 3.0 for their decision. Even then, it's never just about score.

  • Trying to identify which Clip I have so that I can start with Rockbox

    Hi, I have this Clip (Amazon), but it's hard to find out which model it is as regards what I should choose when installing Rockbox. I'd be grateful if anyone could tell me. Also I bought a 32gb Sandisk memory card (Amazon again) for the Clip, and am curious that the Rockbox installer lets me choose that as a potential target for the install. Maybe it's a Mac thing, but the memory card mounts as a separate volume when you connect the Clip via USB. My other big question is, once I have identified the model, where can I find the boot file that the installer needs to start the Rockbox install? The pop-up in Rockbox pointed me here, so I guess I'm following a familiar path (!), but I can't see a pinned post about it anywhere. Would be immensely grateful for a clue.

    As your linked page states as to the product, you have a Clip+.   
    It is relatively easy to install Rockbox, using the Rockbox Utility.  Simply follow the instructions (which are up-to-date, as versus in other locations).  Note:  you do need to read about what you need to do, to know what you need to do.
    http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/RockboxUtility
    I also first recommend that you first look at the Rockbox manual, for an overview of the install process.

  • How many hours should i charge iPod touch for the first time?

    please help.

    Charge as long as you want. If the battery indicator have a plug image then it's full otherwise you see a lightning image. Apple advices to discharge (use it till it's empty) once a month to prolong battery life.

  • How long should I charge my ipad for the first time?

    I have bought an Ipad2 and I was wondering if the first time charge will be "different". thanks

    You don't need to charge an iPad when you first get it. You can charge at any time.
    FYI
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Which programs should my artistic 14-year-old daughter learn next?

    Hello,
    Not sure where to put this so hope it is OK here.
    My daughter is 14 and  has learnt Photoshop. She also loves art and has a Bamboo tablet and Manga Studio. She also posts her blogs on Youtube using iMovie.She is thinking of making her own web page.
    I am wondering which programs in the Adobe Creative Cloud would be best for her to learn next and as I am very much a text person,  feel a bit overwhelmed looking at the complexity of some of these programs. However, I get the feeling that there is a lot of crossover knowledge once you have learnt one.
    So my questions are .... should she keep on learning more about Photoshop, or move on to Illustrator (the last thing she did was design a T-shirt for a sponsored run in her school this week - so if you hit me with vector-graphic questions I will run away ), or do something else.  Should she stretch iMovie until she has to move on to something else or would she have fun learning... what?...
    Should she start her website with something like WordPress and scale up, or should she start learning Muse or Dreamweaver or both, or have the fun of bouncing things around the screen using Edge Animate, or is that more for professionals once they have a solid knowlege of.... what? . From what I have read, Flash is becoming a thing of the past so presumably no worth learning any of the Flash suite, or-......I want her to have fun and express her creative side. She also likes Maths so does not necessarily have to be shielded from a little bit of coding, but ideally it woudl be great if she could learn useful skills for the future as well as being creative.
    Not sure if there is a better discussion forum than the Photoshop one, and this is my first post, but perhaps you will forgive me and thank you in advance for any tips.

    There is some basic knowledge and skills that all require in common, but not as much as you might think.
    Inconsistency between or among applications in the artificial "suites" or clouds should come as no surprise.
    The "suite" concept is a fabrication of Adobe marketing and bean-counting types.  The engineering teams are totally independent of each other, they are not only in different buildings but in different cities and states of the American Union, even in different countries.
    The fact that they have little if any communication among them is highlighted by requests occasionally made in these forums by top Adobe engineers to let the other teams know when there are problems in one application that impact our workflow in another one.
    As to which applications to "learn next" it all depends on her particular individual goals and needs,

    I am a senior technical consultant currently working for an IT consulting/service/developer company. I am an M. Sc. in Computer Science and System Engineering with 15+ years of experience.

    Here is a summary of my skill sets:
    - Applications and Test tools development in JAVA and C (mostly Linux based)
    - Interface development for load testing of Web Services using SOAP-UI (Linux based)
    - Performance test development of web based and SAP applications using HP VuGen (Loadrunner)
    - Embedded system development using C, VxWorks

    I would prefer to stay within technical arena. Please suggest me which module of the SAP should I start with for a formal training.
    Thanks.

    Hi Ravi:
    Thanks for your advice.
    As you said, "There are already number of consultants in the area of Basis and ABAP". Did you mean, the market is "crowded" ?
    If you really suggest me "BI" is a good choice as a "technical" person, which module of the BI I could start with ?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Full-Installed Tiger, iPhoto missing. Should I have started from Panther?

    Couldn't find in Search so here goes. For various reasons I chose to go ahead and run a full install of Tiger after my OS crashed. Everything works fine except that iPhoto and GarageBand are nowhere to be found. Should I have started with the original Panther 10.3.2 before installing Tiger? Alternately, can I simply install the missing apps from the Panther software without starting completely over?
