What skills do I need to become an in-demand web designer/developer?

I have a lot of experience with the graphical aspects of Web Design (e.g. working in Photoshop, Illustrator to create visually-pleasing web sites). However, I want to increase my skills into learning how to make web sites more interactive (e.g. programming, etc).

Sounds like you are very artistic. Good for you! A list of skills you should learn to make more interactive web sites is:
FLASH
C# and the .NET framework
Java
Basic understanding of database design
XML

The thing with programming is that once you learn the basics of if loops, for loops and while loops… all languages are nearly the same. You just have to learn the new syntax and get familiar with the language libraries. So a basic course in programming at any community college or a thorough online tutorial would be useful.

I found this website extremely useful for teaching/reviewing the basics.
