Here's a few examples of the design work I've done. Cycle Dynamics Phoenix, Az Steve was looking to move his company into a slightly new direction and needed a new facelift for his website. The old site was good, but completely lacked the personality a small business needs to grow. Without going overboard I revamped the site and created a logo to give it a fresh look that is more friendly and fitting for his business. Review Matrix Software Program This is one of the applications I have written over the years (I did not do the graphics on this one). It is an internet application writen in PHP for creating a Website Review Site. There is a full administration backend for adding, editting, and modifying reviews that is not linked here. The admin also shows the amount of views and click-throughs for each site. Barbara Yaney Design One of my favorite sites that I have done. Barbara's original site was lacking the appeal that makes her stand out as a toy and illustration designer. While creating this site I strived to bring the realism and depth of her work to the often flat Internet. George Shaeffer Construction, Vail, Co While I was working there I took over their website, which was lacking in any type of format. The current website has is a slightly stripped down version of the one I originally created. I have a copy of the front page Here just in case it has been completely changed since the time of writing this. Pawns Of Parexcellence Done for a friend of a friend, this hip-hop group from Staten Island got more than they were looking for in this design. MyCal - Online Calendar I was requested to make an online calendar that could be used as an add-on to an existing systems. MyCal allows anyone with an internet connection to view or modify the current day, as well as any selected day, and have it show up instantly to all viewing users. This demo version allows anyone to edit appointments, but an installed version at Rt.1 Automall is permissions based. MyCal requires two lines of code to be added to a webpage to work, and just six lines to add the calendars on the side. Filthy Thumbs I was asked by someone who we will just refer to as Filthy Bill, if it was possible to have more than one website show the same images and all link to the same thing, "Sure", I said, then he threw in the monkey wrench, "How about have them change hourly?", "I'd need to take a ride in my car to think it through". I figured out it was possible, the question was how, and your probably wondering why. Filthy Bill is an adult webmaster who makes a good living selling adult material on the internet, the more people that see his stuff, the more money he could make. He came up with an idea of making it easier for new webmasters looking to get into the adult business by allowing them to list his marketting material to increase their own profits. It gets a little confusing here so I'll skip the details. Basically someone new would signup, upload a two files to their server, use a form to generate some html that they added to their website, and bam they have a fully functioning adult website. For those interested in how it really worked here it is: After filling in the Filthy Form, and uploading the scripts to their server, on the top of the hour the Filthy Server would open it's database generate a list of 100 new galleries, and then notify the users server that an upadte was ready. The users server would then proceed to download the thumbs that it was told too, and move them to a directory. Since everything was based on a number, all images were renumbered on the users server so that there was no need to change the html. When a surfer clicked on an image, they would be routed through the Filthy Server so that it could grab the corrisponding url for that image, as well as update the database that a click had occured. Sound a little complicated? Try programming it... Sorry Sferrino Designs is a G rated website so I wont show anything adult related. Intranet Programming I love programming stuff for intranets because the speed that people see stuff is so much faster than on the Internet. One of the many applications I wrote was for a start-up company I worked for. The problem was that since it was a developmental start-up company there were a minimum up 3 new users a week, minimum. NOw anyone who has started at a new company can tell you that there can be a bit of anxiety because of the new environment, and because of all the new people you now have to deal with. Now consider that atleast one of those people are coming straight from India. I'd be a little anxious myself. Here's how I reduced the anxiety of a lot of people while increasing their productivity... On Monday morning the new users would come in to fill out some paperwork and get their photo taken for their security badge. On Tuesday morning before anyone was even in the building my server would go across the network and see if there were any new photos on the security server. If there was, which there generally was, it would copy them to itself and send an email to the security chief. The email would contain the images, and a spot for him to fill in their name. At this point in time a maximum of 5 people generally new the name of the new person, and the security chief was one of them. After filling in the names of the new employees, he would hit submit, which would rename the images on my server and move them to a specified directory. This would then send an email to the person in charge of the phone system, as well as the head of helpdesk informing them of the new user, along with a nice little image of the person for easy recognization. After the phone system admin created the new extension and the helpdesk created an email account, they would fill in their forms in the email they were sent and hit submit. This updated the online directory - which now contained the persons name, phone extension, email address, and photo. The main page of the intranet was updated to show the smiling faces (or not so smiling face since it was a security badge photo) which made everyone aware of who they were. This information also got passed on to the Human Resources department so they could modify their status. All done by 10:00AM Tuesday morning. This took the 4 day process of everyone finding out there was a new user, to a 2 hour automated process.
