Creating a top-notch UX (User eXperience) requires extra effort and attention to the appearance of Web pages. A professional design brightens even the most mundane text. You see this effect with grids, charts, and graphs; those gently rounded, blended, shadowed, and sculptured chart objects look almost, well, edible.
Unfortunately, this chapter won't turn you into a page designer. However, it does show you how to create the canvas for your design and style that you can apply to ASP.NET controls. You also see how to create templates for Web applications, where you mix and match skins, themes, and master pages.
