Has anyone seen Bill Horton's new book "The Web-Page Design Cookbook with
CD-ROM"? I ordered it from Wiley and received a note last week from them
saying that it will not be out until October 20.
According to the flier, the book has four authors: William Horton, Lee
Taylor, Arthur Ignacio, and Nancy Hoft. Here is (in part) what the flier
says:
The best spun Web strategies can bomb if your online presence looks like a
mess of icons, color and text. Now, from online design guru Bill Horton comes
a book filled with the do's and don't of good Web-page design.
The book comes with "hundreds of ready-to-use templates ." It's 672 pages
plus a CD-ROM.
If anyone has seen this book or gets an early copy, please post your comments.
