Chapter One
MAKEOVER
ESSENTIALS
Almost all those household makeovers you see on TV
are within the realm of the possible, given a little
know-how and the right tools. Web Design Before & After
Makeovers is going to help equip you with the information
you need to successfully make over your Web site. But you'll
want to be sure to gather the right tools for the job before

makeover toolbox. These are the tools I swear by for all of
my Web design work.
