WAVE:
What and where are you studying?
Prakash: I’m doing my Bachelors
in Computer Application at CMR Institute of Management Studies,
in Bangalore, India. This is a 3-year course and I am currently
completing my first semester.
WAVE:
Any pointers for young people interested in web designing?
Prakash: Young people who are interested
in web designing should keep exploring the web! They should
remember that nothing happens in one day. It takes time
and lots of patience to become a good designer. It took
me around 2 years to become what I am now. Dreams can only
be made a reality if one is confident enough and is prepared
to work hard.
WAVE:
How did winning the WWW2002 title help you?
Prakash: One thing is sure, winning
the title Wave Web Winner 2002 made me very popular. Lots
of people have been inspired by the site I made for the
competition in Jan 2002 (www.flash.com.np). Do check out
the site and the guestbook. Also after WWW2002, I got some
job offers and I feel many people got addicted to Flash.
WAVE:
Any suggestions for this year’s WWW2003 contestants?
Prakash: Use FLASH MX !! That’s
my first suggestion for this year’s contestants. Secondly,
go through lots of websites more often. This will give you
an idea about what people like about the Web, which designs
look best and what draws visitors to a website. Last, but
not the least, I feel that designers should use a bit of
flash on their websites instead of normal text links. This
will certainly make the site more interesting and worth
more than one visit.
