  I agree, you could go and do a html/css course and then go and do a couple of flash courses. Once you Start putting this stuff into practice the you will learn very quickly.

  For Web Design, stick to short courses.

  I work with a bunch of people who went to uni and did IT / Multimedia. I still can't believe how far behind they were... fresh out of Uni and using tables for web layouts!? I had to teach them CSS!

  Also don't focus too much on straight up reading/studying. Get some contract work and use that to implement new things you've learnt. That's the fasted way to skill up.

  I think lynda.com is the best place to learn the skills you need for web design.

  yea everyone has really great ideas. just start playing around with making your own web portfolio. you have a BFA in graphic design so it will translate into the good web layouts. start making mock ups in photoshop and start slicing and dicing!

  if you already have a degree, for a non drastic career change, i would just go the book route too. much cheaper. if you can focus, you will learn faster too.
