Web Design

I am a webmaster knowledgeable in:

  • W3C Valid HTML and CSS
  • Wordpress Installation and Customization
  • Prestashop Shopping Carts
  • RSS Feeds
  • Flash Animation
  • Domain Name Registration
  • Domain Hosting and Maintenance
  • Search Engine Optimization

I charge $60 an hour and I can provide an estimate and contract at no charge.

I use Opensource software to construct my webpages. I’ve installed and customized the following applications with my own html templates, text and graphics.

Content Management Systems (Blogs)

  • Drupal - Drupal is now XHTML valid and boasts a list of features too long to list. Some important features include an extensive web based control panel, searching, images galleries, contact forms, multi-users allow for Social Networking sites, forums, podcasting, file uploads, polls, comments, a news aggregator and site stats.
  • Wordpress - A W3C complient blogging site. Wordpress offers many of the same features as Drupal with minor differences.(Example)
  • Greymatter - a very simple Web-based tool for the creation of weblogs or online journals. (Example)
  • Plans Calendar - A browser controled calendar / time management system. The easy to read calendar displays events as links in flexible boxes. (Example)
  • Stouk Phone Book - A simple perl script that allows users to search, manage text and even display images in a basic online spreadsheet. This application can be manipulated to import and display large amounts of data from Excel Spreadsheets. (Example)

Music and Image Galleries

  • emAlbum - software that automates the management, organization and viewing of images. It features timed slideshows, image captions and endless images and sub-directories. (Example)

Email Forms

  • Tectite - provides an application to accept from submissions and email the results to multiple addresses. It has anit-spam features, CAPTCHA (random code validation) and a long history with no exploited security vulnerabilities. (Example)

E-Commerce Systems

  • Magento - I plan on mastering this XHTML valid, flexible software package. Check back to see when I will offer this product with my web design services.
  • Zen Cart - A popular choice of e-commerce software.
  • CP Commerce - I’ve tested this application on my site.

Misc. Software

  • Poll It - A simple CGI program that allows browsers to contribute to an online poll. The software allows browsers to see a bar graph of the results once they contribute. It also stores users IP addresses so multiple entries are avoided. (Example)

I am able to provide animations and interactive navigation.

Flash and Director

  • Adobe Flash Player is the standard for delivering high-impact, rich Web content. Designs, animation, and application user interfaces are deployed immediately across all browsers and platforms, attracting and engaging users with a rich Web experience. (Director Example), (Flash Example)

Early Web Experience

emrgnsee
Emrgnsee - Since 2008, I've done a large amount of data entry on this site. Organizing the music, workshops, vendors and sponsors on the website accounted for 155 posts. Yoga, breakdancing and permaculture are a few of the workshops at this three-day, techno gathering. This site runs off of Wordpress and was coded by my friend, Ben Scott (Stopphysics.com) and graphics were done by http://thewkyd.com

down to earth
Down To Earth Distributors - My first CSS project involving multiple opensource applications like Stoke's Phone Book, Matt's FormMail, Plan's online calendar and ramdom image javascript. I also designed and coded the web sites for Down to Earth's retail stores and it's organic fertilizer. I completed these projects between 2004 and 2007.

agentlead
Agent Lead - I worked in Corvallis, Oregon for GoHome in 1999 designing web pages to sell real estate.

libbey
Libbey, Inc. - In 1997, I worked in Toledo, Ohio for one of the worlds largest tableware manufactures. I was flown to Atlanta Georgia to work with Microsoft in designing the launch of this complex web site. (While living in Ohio, I created the infamous email: terrytoledo)

Obie Media's Art Department 2001 - I did this while working at Obie Media.

Early Web Animation

The Future Sound of Lego - My first stop animation using Flash. Lego people ravin' and dancing til the break of dawn. I love their smiles.
