Marcy Kellar (Indianapolis, IN)
This is a great book for those that want to do design the right way.
EXCELLENT Resource! November 15, 2008
W. S. Jones (Noblesville, IN USA)
For those who will be rebranding a site and all that it entails - this is an invaluable resource. From master pages, layout pages, using CSS, navigation, etc., it's all here. If you are a developer who finds yourself having to perform these tasks then get this book! Nicely done.
Great resource for those wanting to rebrand SharePoint sites October 1, 2008

One of the most common demands I see from customers is "I don't want my site to look like SharePoint." Unfortunately there aren't many books on this subject. This book does a great job of introducing the reader into what's involved in creating and applying a brand in a SharePoint site. It even includes intro chapters for those who haven't done this before or who are new to using tools like Photoshop. Finally there's a resource to point people to!
Good stuff! October 1, 2008

I was given a copy of this book by one of the authors themselves. I have read through a few of the chapters so far and it has helped me tremendously with understanding how the design process works related to SharePoint projects. The book begins by describing some of the basics of web design theory and creation and then transitions into actually making these designs a reality in SharePoint. The author's dive into all of the important topics related to SharePoint design such as creating design comps that are tailored to SharePoint, converting them to master pages and themes with custom CSS, creating page layouts, working with navigation and working with web parts. I think the book would be good for designers trying to work with SharePoint as well as non-designers that need to understand the process and techniques behind creating a custom SharePoint UI.
 Not what I was hoping... September 24, 2008

I am a web designer tasked with learning Sharepoint to redesign my company's intranet. Learning how to brand and customize Sharepoint is no easy task. I took Heather Solomon's Branding class and have benefited greatly from the take-home documentation that she created. I was hoping this book would take the knowledge I already had and take it to the next level. I am not sure who this book is aimed for, but I doubt it was designers. There are whole chapters in here on basic design principles and how to use Photoshop. What? Anyone who calls themselves a designer better know that stuff already, imho. Those chapters alone leave me to think that programmers and techies were the intended audience, not professional web designers. The descriptions for how to handle tasks are cryptic and the associated screenshots are not in the layout with the text, they are often several pages over. As a mainly visual learner, as most designers are, this makes the book a massive pain to use. I haven't read every chapter yet, but as of right now, I am disappointed. If you really need to learn how to brand and customize Sharepoint, go to Heather's class and search the web for other folks who are having branding adventures-even little old me has a Sharepoint branding blog-we tend to share what we know pretty freely ;)
