Yea, I have NO DESIRE whatsoever to do CG or webdesign... I rrrreally like print. And do not wish to further my knowledge.

i took a class years ago in DW at a place in Garden City...since then it's just been from doing sites for myself and a few clients...have dabbled in GoLive also...the nice thing with web is if it doesn't come out right you change it...not like getting back a run of 1,000 printed pieces that are messed up!!! hahaha

I'm so happy that you guys feel the same way. I'm more on the programming end of things, but most jobs out there want you to be a designer as well as a programmer.

Print design completely confuses me. I can't be bothered to figure out what DPI an image is. As long as it looks good on the screen then it's fine with me. I guess everyone has their niche.

Yeah...i think it's easier to go from a print b/g to web...but DPI is still important in web because you don't want to upload a 300dpi on a website or it'll take forever to load! (and people could steal your image) Optimization is your friend!! haha

Very true. I generally work with Fireworks which is made specifically for web images.
BTW - I wonder how many other people have read this post and wondered what kind of foreign language we were speaking?
