I'm a computer science graduate having a passion for web design. Almost two years ago, I started learning web design. I designed few websites as well. Every day I try to improve my designing skills a lot.

I just want to become a highly skilled, professional web designer!

I'm good at programming and I can design good aesthetic websites as well. As I told you I've been pursuing webdesign for the past 2 years (through online blogs & e-books). I have a good knowledge in layout design, color schemes, grid systems, and obviously, coding.

One thing which makes me feel weak is that I'm not a graduate from an arts or design school.

Can I become a skilled designer who is able to design as designers with an arts background do?

Can you suggest me something which takes me from a newbie to the advanced level?

I'm not a newbie in designing! I know the basic things and I'm also working as a junior designer. I just want to learn more and more to become an expert web designer.

I hope you can give me proper guidance & suggestions..

Thank you.

You don't need an arts or design degree to be a good designer. It helps, sure, but it isn't necessary. The most important thing you need instead of a degree is experience. That is exactly the thing that takes you to the next level: work experience.

I'd advise you to keep on doing web design work, read about it both offline and on. There's gazilliions of blogs about web design, but I'd start with Smashing Magazine and A List Apart and work your way from there.

Other good resources are tutorials, video courses, and blogs about web design.
