Web Development

I've done some web development!  It may come as a surprise to you, but the website you're currently witness to was made from scratch by me!  I've put together a number of other sites as well.

My principle tools in website creation are Photoshop and Notepad.  I design layouts in Photoshop, where I can easily edit frames and fonts - and code everything from scratch in HTML/CSS in Notepad.  I have experience with HTML4, CSS, PHP, ASP, and SQL databases.

I do website freelancing, but I've somewhat tired of the Web Development scene.  Until every browser out there is web standards complient (glaring at you IE...) - I don't plan to do too much more in this area.  I've done many sites over the last few years, but unfortunately most have gone down.  What remains is a collection of websites which are still active.

This website was done for a local limousine service in Cambridge, WI.  The site is being maintained by another company - and has been for about three years.  Much of the layout has been modified since I finished the design and submitted the site to the maintainer.

One of the longer domain names I've ever come across.  I was approached by one of my mom's co-workers to do a site.  I didn't have that much time, but I agreed to throw something temporary together.  This simple CSS - mostly image free - design was completed in a weekend.  It has rendering problems in IE, but it was supposed to be a temp site - nothing more.  It turns out they liked the barebones feel of the temp site enough to keep it.  I handed over the reigns to their maintainer who has done a good job maintaining the original look and feel of the site.
