While it helps to sometimes have a degree (a real one) of some sort, all you really need to do is start a portfolio (you can even make a website portfolio) with designs and shit. Hell, try deviantart. They have communities of web designers and ideas you can check out. There is a huge difference between someone who has a passion for it, and someone who wants to just make money by throwing shit together. Those who do it for the passion, I think, have better results.
Man alone measures time.
Man alone chimes the hour.
And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear no other creature endures.
A fear of time running out.
― Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper
