WEB DEVELOPMENT - SECRETS TO STARTING A CAREER in the Web Development Industry

[@OfficialDevTips]

Great video Will. Cool to see your face, feel like I know you a lot better now. Great advice as usual. It's the wild west in our industry in a lot of ways. If you have a gun and are willing to travel you can do well.

[@ChrisSmith-oc5hc]

Unlike some of the rude and ungrateful people below, I completely get the point of this video and I thank you for your time and effort. I found it very helpful that you pulled back the curtain and gave us a glimpse of the employer's point of view. It kinda helps to level the playing field. Thanks, again, from a grateful viewer!

[@DelbertStinkfester]

Thanks for uploading this video....I'm 52 years old and I'm in a spot where I need to change careers and I'm hoping to get into web development....This video was extremely helpful

[@BlazertronGames]

DelbertStinkfester damn, I'm only 15 and I'm looking into learning web development!

[@GuilhermeSS]

DelbertStinkfester My heroe, all the best!

[@adrianthomas4163]

Could you make an update to this video? Like how you are doing with your Must-know web development tech videos.

[@michaelafanasiev2318]

Yes, please re-do this video fro 2016-2017! :)

[@baselmok]

Yes , can you update us with a new video please :)

[@chrisdizzle313]

Awesome vid will. Gives a old school green horn like myself hope solidifying a solid position in the field I've been passionate about for so long. People like u who legitimately tell others that there is hope of getting a job from the new devs to the "pros".

[@dericjele]

dude, i can't stress enough, how much fun i've had with web development and going through ur vids. so, for my first website, i tried to build an online store, i would say it turned out alright with paypal and all although it was pretty simple (not so great). now i am working on something a little more exciting, about travel and tour planning, with a parallax effect and great images and it's turning out pretty well. it would be great if i could show you both site, just to show you the amount of progress i've made in roughly two months, which i feel wouldn't have been possible without ur vids!! u are a champ!!

[@zygozayano]

Awesome, thanks Will! A developer's stackoverflow account would be a good indicator as well

[@MistiqueCat]

Thank you so much for ths video! I'm newbie atm, know html and css and learning javascript. There is sooo much stuff people list in web designer job adds as requirement that it can get bit overwhelming for us who are just starting! Your video is great and it brings hope to us newbies that we can do this and it's great guide for what to learn next :)

[@learncodeacademy]

+TheTrueMistiqueCat I totally understand that! The tough thing starting out, too, is you don't know what of those things matter a lot to the company, and what things don't. I'd just look at a lot of job ads and see what technologies a LOT of companies are looking for...and make sure you know those. If you know the right core skills, the other skills & technologies be learned on the job.

[@varunemani]

Big thanks! Truely informative for newbies & more so for currently employed.

[@NanetteNette]

I'm glad i found this channel. I feel more confident in pursuing Web development as a career.

[@pinkdiscomosh2766]

Literally the most helpful video on this subject. Thank you so much. Now I have a goal in mind. God bless!

[@MarijanRaicevic]

really appreciate your input here. I'm in school working towards Web Development Diploma and landing a first job is very important and crucial to everyone's career.

[@michaelschelnick]

Dude. Thank you so much. Getting ready to start school at the age of 40 for a change to web development and your advice is exactly what I needed to hear.

[@learncodeacademy]

Awesome, great to hear!

[@thatoneuser8600]

Yo 7 years later, how is life? Did you stick with web dev or did you switch paths?

[@Mrkindleify]

A really good video Will, I like watching your videos because you don't seem to me like an another schmoozer but a real professional! Great work! Tom

[@codeboysuk1783]

You have done a great job ..kind of mith buster. watching your video one and half year before gave me a proper understanding. Thank you so much please keep doing

[@JeSuisMachado]

These videos are awesome! Thank you so much for sharing this information. For someone that is learning code, it's great to have good resources on the internet!

[@learncodeacademy]

Thomas Machado Awesome, thanks a ton!

[@stevenpartridge8215]

Thank you so much, this video was great. I feel like you just spent the first ten minutes describing me, which is really giving me hope for my recent job search. In fact, I think I'm a little bit more advanced than what you described. I've been stuck in a 'dead end' job with a start up, with very low pay and a lack of proper guidance. I'm ready to get out there and start the real part of my career.

[@carlosarana842]

Thank you, endlessly, for this video. You've done me a huge help by creating this. Thanks a million.

[@Nestico87]

These videos are gold. Absolutely can't wait for the jQuery series. Many thanks.

[@andrewlovick1073]

Great video! Thank you for posting the need to knows. Great rough guide to getting in the right direction!

[@Aly_Fahmy]

oh my gosh THANK YOU, i've been learning to do web development for quite a while now (like a year and a half) and gave up on it for a while as i was completely lost...not lazy or anything just LOST and didn't know what exactly was necessary to learn.

[@AnimeshSinghweb]

Nice. Short and on the point video. Really easy to understand your expression, and you have shared quit good points.

[@completeoutsource]

web development is kinda like the backbone of the outsourcing industry. With expertise in web development is a HUGE advantage in getting a position in the outsourcing industry, a web developer is a must for the company. Nice video, you are very knowledgeable in the web development field.

[@cherylstonestreet8983]

Thank you so much for this video and your thoughts. I have spent the last year and a half learning front end web development and have created a couple of sites for other people. I feel like I'm about ready to get my resume out there. Thanks for the keyword tips to get me noticed and for the github info.

[@petermacintosh6006]

Thanks for this vid. Practical, and current, advice for aspiring web devs. I appreciate the perspective about what employers are looking for, as well as how to start gaining a practical history before the big job search begins. And yes, Linux seems to be on the rise. Let the learning begin!

[@Ravi86055]

Hi it's one of the best videos I've ever watched.. Thank you so much for the overall picture of the concept of Web dev skill set.. There is lot of information in this. I believe you will do more videos like this. it's really helpful..

[@TheVRLover]

This guy's Channel deserves a subscription.

[@atextful]

You really love your work. It would be wonderful to work with someone like you. I would desire to find a company with people like you in my country.

[@ostieber]

Hey, I want to thank you for this video. It really helps when you are just starting out.

[@learncodeacademy]

Olaf Stieber Awesome to hear, thanks!

[@geovannelnavalta]

You are very helpful to us beginners. Thank you so much for being such a good man. You're helping us to be more determined to success in this field. God will always be with you all the time.

[@TomiwaOdufuwa]

Interesting and solid insights. I am definitely drawing up my development goals based on the points discussed in this video. I use Komodo edit and chrome dev tools for development. Komodo edit is so awesome I don't think I am going to move away from it soon. Tried out Sublime text and Aptana some time ago but I was so used to the workflow in Komodo that I switched without even thinking.

[@marla10251988]

Thank you for creating this video! I'm a graphic designer and I work at a software company right now and I often get confused with everything. Next step for me is to learn and step up. I have always been just thinking about this but now I want to go out of the just thinking and really try doing and starting something. Again, thanks!

[@learncodeacademy]

+Marinela Madayag Oh, you have to go for it, especially if you're already in the industry...There needs to be more female developers, and because of it, female developers get awesome opportunities. Here's another video I have on a roadmap if you haven't seen it yet. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnOTiKmZrbmVeaM It can feel overwhelming at first, but I figured I'd rather include the whole list of tools rather than leave people in the dark on what to learn.

[@singletracksender9021]

I got so hyped when he said "if i can give you a bunch of ui's and you can point out the li's" (or something like that?) Ive only been doing this for two weeks and i know what he's talking about!!

[@Hueydabest]

I have no coding experience whatsoever but have a strong desire to begin a career as a web developer. What are your thoughts on 2-3 month programs that aim to teach web developing skills and have apprenticeship opportunities after graduating from the program? Do you think it's a good investment? Or can I find a good career as a web developer by teaching myself using online tutorials and information? I'm mainly worried about how to find a job/opportunity if I teach myself but have no portfolio to back up my knowledge of web developing.

[@learncodeacademy]

Regardless of which path you take, the on-ramp can be the toughest part for a lot of new devs. I'd say start learning yourself either way - the ability to teach yourself is a critical skill you'll need to develop anyway. I think the hack schools out there are a great way to learn fast - if you have the money to go for it, then it will get you on the journey faster, and your first job placement will probably make up for the cost.

[@jessicajames5412]

It's been 3 years now, how are you with your coding?

[@samy2930]

I am learned html, css, javascript and Jquery, is that a good idea put project(like hand code for some website's homepage) to Github? Should I attending some local job fairs? Best Regards, Sam

[@joelweston1839]

hey man! thank you so much for this video. I have been waiting for a down to earth response instead of hearing you must learn HTML CSS PHP JSCRIPT JQUERY but never being told to which level. Career changer! See you on the other side!

[@learncodeacademy]

Great to hear it helped. Yeah, you're definitely hire-able with HTML, CSS and very little javascript. Of course, add in complex javascript and you just became a lot more in-demand...any skill will boost that for you. Having less skill and experience under your belt, doesn't make you un-hire-able, it just means you might have to look under a few more rocks to find that right-fit-job. The more skills you have, the more type-cast your resume becomes. People can see your specific skillset on paper and better know before the interview even happens if you'll have a shot.

[@TheCritikaLink]

Very informative! Helps a ton in focusing on what I need to learn. Thank you!

[@CarltonStith]

I absolutely love and appreciate your videos very much. Please keep them coming. Possibly a video on backbone.js?

[@marcdrubbel6336]

Thank you so much dude! I started coding like a month ago via Code Academy. Last week I had an interview and the next day I immediately started as an intern! THANKS!

[@PipeJream]

+Marc Drubbel Awesome man! I've completed almost every Code Academy course and still don't feel like I know very much. How did you manage to get an internship in 1 month?

[@marcdrubbel6336]

I kinda "bullshitted" myself in there... When they asked me about my skills I told them I was way better than I actually was and after I had the job I had to deal with projects which made me a more experienced developer :)

[@PipeJream]

Thanks for the quick response :) Did you have to study after work to catch up? And did they ever question your skills along the way?

[@GingaMilla]

I am going to start learning web development today and all this information kind of put me off when i first looked at it and when you was speaking about all these different things in the video yet i have no idea what you are on about. I was scared but I realize you don't learn everything in a day. I am going to take my time at the start and work my way through. I have not had a job and I am 24 years old and it makes me upset but i think this is something i can get into and maybe in a year or 2 i will have found work in a job that i will love. Thank you for all your videos.

[@learncodeacademy]

Craig Lewis Oh man, yes, it's completely overwhelming at first...not because learning everything is actually overwhelming, but because it seems like it will be. You may have seen this video, but if not, it shows you ALLLLL the detail of what you'll want to learn and what order to learn it in. MOST of the things in this video aren't languages, so they don't take months to learn...more like a day or two. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnOTiKmZrbmVeaM

[@PeterTeVibes]

Hey great job! you've peaked my interest from a 7 to a 9. Keep up the good work.

[@initialJT]

Thank you for this! It's exactly what I've been looking for!

[@amutechnoloiges1782]

One of the best and i like this web development starting a career video..

[@SameerSrivastavaa]

Excellent advice Will. Great video!

[@ChristopherFergo]

Your series is excellent Will! I really appreciate all the tutorials and advice on the web industry. You definitely seem to know your stuff. Right now, I am a graphic / web artist looking to eventually break into web development. I'm not quite there yet (I wasn't able to say yes to everything a recruiter might be looking for) but I'm confident in a few months time I will be.

[@ChristopherFergo]

***** That's good to know. I'm finding that developing can be just as rewarding as designing too. In that, once you're finished you can take a step back and appreciate the work you've done.

[@mhhm-mq3ct]

great post, i was looking for something like that. clarify things pretty much. thanks.

[@godofredofabi8949]

thanks for the sharing . . .now i know where do is start.

[@reyhando]

Thanks man, that's what i really need to hear. I am now 18 and already know html + css and gonna start learn javascript and jquery.

[@learncodeacademy]

Awesome! You really can't go wrong with learning those, no matter where you end up in web work.

[@benjaminwilde152]

I thought that HTML, CSS, Javascript/Jquery are in the Web Design side of the industry. When I hear of 'web development' I think of PHP/Node.js/Python etc...

[@Paryszek]

Wed Design is more like being able to create cool layouts in programs like Adobe Photoshop/Adobe Fireworks/Sketch, Web Development is the coding part of creating website. Web development is divided into Front-end, Back-end and Database. In Front-end you use HTML/CSS/JS, for Back-end you use PHP/Python/Ruby/Node.js etc. and for database SQL.

[@benjaminwilde152]

Kafelek Oh, makes sense. Thank you.

[@abggk2]

You are right, web development is more about the code and the logic, but you still need to know html and css so you can understand what the front end devs have done and work with it. But you are right - it's not a job of the web dev to customize the design (unless it's a small company and you are a man for everything).

[@polarnj]

wow! this really put things into perspective for me...I've been coding obsessively for many years and only done a few sites commercially because I was unsure of my abilities but i git, sublime, terminal, preprocessors are things I considered beginer level. I've been working with angular and node for a while now and wordpress for years. time to apply!

[@learncodeacademy]

Oh yeah, you're definitely there. Some companies may need absolute ninjas, but most just need people who are passionate, self-teaching and don't need hand-holding if there are areas where they need to step up. I got my first job in the industry when I could barely use jQuery.

[@Mrkindleify]

Great video Will, I really like your style of teaching, I don't know if you are, as they say a "professional" teacher, but your better than moust I have seen so far by MILES! Keep up the good work! Tom

[@learncodeacademy]

Thanks, Tom! I haven't taught in years, but I did teach a few tech courses at a small local college in St. Louis for a few years back in the day. It's definitely something I enjoy.

[@Mrkindleify]

LearnCode.academy I've seen a lot of bad teachers, when it comes to anything computer related! Maybe be you should start something like Codeschool! I would definitively join in!

[@3xtigy261]

Thanks you very much. I have been looking for something like this for a while. :)

[@SameerRahman]

Great job!! Please make a screencast about how a developers portfolio looks like.

[@webdeveloper2025]

Great video! So happy I found you.

[@theGENIUSofART-understood]

BIG Thanks for the advice. I'm completely new to this and looking at the possibility of freelancing so that I'm mobile when I want. 1. is that crazy to start off freelancing? (I can afford 6 months of ft study) 2. the plan is: html, css, jquery (as per your sugg) wordpress (can, buy a template, hack it and crank out a site). Is this enough to start doing small jobs to build my skills/experience?

[@aliceparry9498]

I am in the same position as you, traveling and trying to make a living with code. A friend of mine gave me some advice, "Start with WordPress as you don't have to learn the back end then keep building. Make and sell templates and turn any job you are paid to do and turn it into a template". Then look at all the freelancer sites and see who is paid the most and why.

[@theGENIUSofART-understood]

that's the way i'm going too

Thank you for the effort to post. My advice to people would not to look for an employer but to become an employer and look for a market (customers).

[@morogoyo]

Thank you this has cleared out so many questions for me in particular, I have experience with all the technologies that you have mentioned and others like actual Java and PHP . i will narrow it down to these ones and do what you say again many thanks it was super helpfull

[@abhishek3601]

thats the best video ever.complete information for web developer

[@challanjarrett7604]

Love these videos. Do you have any video tutorials that go over the basics of networking?

[@RunOs3]

Thanks for posting this, it was very helpful.

[@Chng30FsCenEry]

Solid advice, thank you! I am getting pretty close to this level, but I still struggle with remembering all of the code I have studied. Is it common for developers to be reading documentation (for instance, looking through Bootstrap's codex) while working? How often is a new developer expected to code without having to reference documentation or use Google? Keep up the great work - subscribed!

[@learncodeacademy]

OH heck yes it's common. It's all the time I find myself (after over 10 years of developing) looking up something I've long since known how to do, but haven't done for a year...so I have to brush up on it. More often, I'll check to make sure what I know is now the best way to do it. Since tech changes all the time, if you knew how to do a webform, but haven't done one for a year or so, odds are new best practices have emerged. It's a part of the cycle of things, so you'll find yourself googling quite often. A good example for me is Backbone.js I've coded it for years, but not much in the last year, so I would need to remind myself how I solved specific problems were I to get back on a backbone project again.

[@joonpark3567]

Nice, you really deserve something for this short consulting! My question is.... Were you targeting more likely for 'front-end' on this vid?

[@OhhTxnyy]

Hey, Thanks for all the information, i've been following a few of your tutorials and I'm really happy I found you because I'm still relatively new to programming but I just graduated ICT after 2 years on secondary school and I'm nog going to high school to learn even more. But even right now (I have 3 months of holliday) I love learning new things, day in and day out! I have a great knowledge of HTML/CSS/PHP and I'm trying my hardest to learn advanced stuff with jQuery and JavaScript.

[@learncodeacademy]

Awesome! Great to hear you're using that downtime to learn stuff. Yeah, Javascript usage is growing every day...it's a great language to learn if web is where you want to go.

[@johnturner8585]

Would you be able to do a tutorial series on making a real, modern social network. Thanks

[@MrJohn360]

Thank you so much! I was looking for this.

[@hutxhy4071]

Is your company still looking? Teach me Senpai, your videos are awesome, they've taught me so much already!

[@rputasi]

Hi! I know HTML, CSS, jQuery, PHP, MySQL and got Photoshop skills too. I can build webshops, social net Twerks and do many other things related to the web, but I haven't had any jobs yet, also I haven't used github yet. Your video really helped me to form the picture about this whole web developement thing in my head, it was very informational, thank you very much! :)

[@learncodeacademy]

Awesome, glad it helped! Yeah, you have a plenty-great skillset for a full-time job if you're looking for one. The area you're in depends on how easy that first one will be. These 2 vids will help you learn github: Github Tutorial For Beginners - Github Basics for Mac or Windows & Source Control Basics GITHUB PULL REQUEST, Branching, Merging & Team Workflow

[@richowens5254]

Great video. I have pretty much all the skills you were mentioning but grew up in the construction industry. I don't have example work that i can really show (some would just be too embarrassing) and the good stuff I've helped with I can't put my name on. But here's the kicker. I'm a convict. it just seems like upwork stuff is out of my league and/or daunting for the compensation offered and the local devs i work with are independent so not stable (although stable enough for them to pay their bills comfortably). Currently I'm a dishwasher/ fry-cook in the sleaziest bar in town and just feel like a waste of skin. Should I just give up on WebDev?

[@marlonhosten4693]

How does one stay abreast on the changing demands for web developers and web development ?

[@Jaykmrch]

I don't know how things are in the US. But I am an expert on html css and javascript, Built app in ionic 2/angular 2, have now learnt react and built an app on react as well, use github for version control gulp for compiling and now I even know webpack because of react. Done MySQL for an eccomerce database, built a portfolio of 10 websites. And unfortunately still can't find a job. I live in the UK btw. This post looks quite old so I guess it is kind of obsolete now.

[@apporvaarya]

Best video on web development advice.

[@kevinmartinez7687]

Thanks alot mate. You have some really awesome videos!

[@muhammadtalhaakbar7741]

Hey, great video! No doubt. I have been in web development since 8th grade (2011). I started out with PHP. It's been a lot of years and I am that point in my development that I can get started with anything just by reading its docs. Like React, Angular, Node, Electron, Grunt, Gulp just name it! But, I have never taken my code publicly (like GitHub). I am currently pursuing Bachelors in Computer Science. Do you think that I should drop out, spend time building portfolio and totally get into web development?

[@thatpakiguy3445]

I have a question. Instead of building websites for other organisations/people, wouldnt it be better to make a few websites of your own. For example if you are into a particular sport (eg. MMA, boxing etc) then you can make website for that, and put tutorials or videos or biography of legendary players of the past etc etc.. what are your thouhts about this?

[@learncodeacademy]

ThatPakiGuy Both will have their advantages. If you build for someone else, you learn how to discuss web development, determine goals & features, etc...which are VERY valuable skills to develop. If you do sites for yourself, you get to do any fun and creative (also impressive) features you can think of.

[@misterjaypeasmith]

This was awesome Will! Can you make a similar one for 2018 - I assume the difference is maybe a little more than VS CODE (totally in love with that).

[@Slimgoodie0216]

Hey Well. I am able to build a basic website with bootstrap. I can also build one without bootstrap, but it is a little harder for me, and it takes a lot more time. Also, it's kind of challenging for me to make the site responsive without bootstrap. Should I focus on learning web development without bootstrap first?

[@learncodeacademy]

Good question. I'd say both for sure. At the very least, know what you'd have to learn quickly if you took a job that did responsive sites by hand. You can quickly learn what media queries bootstrap is using by simply looking at their source code. I can say after using a CSS framework for several years now, I don't see a single reason not to use one for a new site. You'd probably only need to hand-code if you were doing responsive work for a company with an existing site where upgrading to a CSS framework would be very costly.

[@AnatolyKhalizev]

Thank you very much! I have computer security degree but our education was not good, and I have no interest for it. But after six years I am watching to web development field. I've started from Wordpress - free themes, plugins. Wish to create come small companies sites. Also I am learning html, css, javascript (yeoman, angular, atom and github) to be more professional. I also use design tools like photoshop, illustrator. As I understand, I still have a chance to create good career in web development or create my own web company?

[@andrewatts7425]

I use and open source code editor called Caret from the Chrome Web Store. Maybe I would try Sublime but I'm satisfied with Caret. Especially since it's a native Chrome OS app. I can't afford a Macbook pro right now.

[@stevenborgogna]

Wow that is exciting! Thanks for putting up such a useful straight to the point video. I have worked in IT and Networking since 2008 and have been looking to make the transition for a while now. I was wondering, what are your thoughts on geographical residence vs the availability of opportunities in the web dev industry? Including telecommuting?

[@learncodeacademy]

+Steven Borgogna Geo plays a VERY big role. Where you live will drastically affect: - quantity of jobs - pay of jobs - technologies in-demand (i.e. south-central US is lots of .net and java on the backend, west coast will be tons of Node, Rails, GoLang, etc) Remote opportunities are growing every day. Companies are finding that it's more productive to have the niche people that fit your technology stack even if they're remote rather than have local people who aren't the right fit. The downside, is most remote opportunities are for senior positions in my experience - people who can jump right in with no hand-holding.

[@EverythingisFire]

I'd assume after a lot of practice, getting into a part-time job creating HTML emails(I don't know what the exact job title would be), that would be a really good thing to see on a resume other than volunteering to make free sites?

[@lokeshs6176]

sir can you give more information about ui/ux design

thank u... quick question .. wen do I knw I'm good enuff with JS to move to Angular 2 ...as my next project is based on it... like wat are basic js know how I need to check ..before I'm good to move to a2

[@ArpitGoyal92]

Great Video! I do most of the stuff you mentioned (Not WP), I do use Linux, Ubuntu to be specific the one issue is that most designers work on Photoshop or Illustrator and to work with them you need a win/mac, GIMP/Inkscape is not enough. I don't wanna buy a macbook but seems like I'll have to, any suggestions ?

[@neovenkata]

This video is gold mine!

[@rsmoove2000]

Very helpful. Thanks for the info!

[@XXSLUTWTFXX]

I am currently enrolled to get an AS degree in IT but lately have been getting into web development. I'm really enjoying it, I've finished learning some basic front-end and am moving into jQuery/Javascript now along with refining my html/css skills. I am wondering should I go to get my BS in IT? or Computer Science? I would prefer a degree in IT as math is not my strongest point, but I suppose my overall question is, would a Bachelors in IT/CS give me more oppurtunity/edge in the job market as a web dev?

[@learncodeacademy]

Hmm, good question and one I'm not sure I can answer fully-rightly. I can say a lot of job requests I've seen say "Bachelor's degree in MIS or CS or Equivalent"...but that being said, 4 semesters of calculus can be brutal - and are far more than most web developers need in reality.

[@reidsnaps]

this is exactly what i needed in life thank you

[@urosbacinic9558]

Very informative! Great channel!!!!

[@DanArata]

Your videos are always so inspiring!

[@htlcnn]

Hi there. Thanks for all the great videos on your channel. I'm a self-taught amateur in web development. You mentioned Wordpress in this video. I've learnt wordpress a little bit and I could rip a html template to a wordpress template. But when it came to writing plugins for wordpress, I looked out for other solutions. Then I knew about Drupal, a very flexible CMF. Could you give me some advise about what to learn, and tell me how is creating apps with drupal different from with the tools in your videos: nodejs, bower, expressjs, angularjs,... because they looks like foreign language to me Thanks and best regards!

Sure thing! Drupal, Wordpress are primarily Content-Management-Systems or CMS for short. They allow you to build the site and then manage the content with their admin tool. CMS's are great for doing work where the client needs to update content on their own, or where you have so much content that you want to hire a non-developer to do content while the developers are paid to develop. Node.js, Ruby on Rails, etc are for building much larger, complex systems that are custom-made for a specific purpose.

Hi, you say Linux is quite important however most design firms use adobe suite that isn't available on this OS. Is it only useful for back end developers than? Can't remember seeing any adds asking for Gimp experience.
