Electronic Circuits and Projects Forum

Hi all,
I'm starting to create circuits and projects. Years and Years ago(80's), I went the Radioshack way to try and create circuit boards with little luck. My questions are:

-Is there a service that can make circuit boards from schematic? (nothing complex)
-I see that there are ways to do it yourself....What is the process to achieve that? In other words, what parts and/or pieces would I need to get started?

I apologize if these questions are basic, but I'm new to this and I don't know.

Thanks (in advance).
