Valid XHTML & CSS
Template Cusomization
Shopping Cart
Visit SiteI got an opportunity to work with a client who had an existing website, but needed to step things up a bit. He needed a way to post classes online and have customers register and pay for them. I started with a basic CSS template, modified it to suit his needs and color scheme, and integrated a shopping cart linked to a Paypal account for accepting onlne payments. I also set up client-side form validation.
I was asked to take a Photoshop comp and quickly convert it to XHTML and CSS for their client. They wanted the XHTML layout to match the composition with pixel precision.
This site was handed off to me in an early design phase and I had to take the ball and run with it. I worked closely with the client to get the look, feel, and functionaltiy out of the site that he desired, taking into consideration his target audience. I also had to make sure that it was backward compatible and displayed properly in IE6.

This is a corporate retail site at it's finest. This was all about functionality and targeting the audience. It is a full table-less layout with CSS. I built out a "details" page using a image-swapping element for the product color choices and a zoom window to see the product close-up.

Table-less Layout
2 & 3 column layouts with continuous backgrounds
Visit SiteThis is a site that I designed from scratch for a rental property in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate NY. The client wanted to have the site feel warm and inviting and showcase the home and surrounding area. I chose a three-column layout for some of the pages, and was able to create continuous column backbrounds without the use of a faux column background image. I also incorporated a JQuery lightbox to view larger images in their portfolio.

The scope of the project was to create a production involving the creation of a script, direction of actors, filming, and editing.
