Etude - New Voices in Literary Nonfiction
Etude - Part of my job in the School of Journalism and Communication is maintaining websites for many of their publications. This particular website was horribly implemented, was nothing more than a series of Photoshop image maps. I completely revamped it, using HTML and CSS, with minimal graphic files, while maintaining a consistent look with the prior editions of the site. It is now a lot easier to maintain. Although still in HTML/PHP, I will be moving it to a content management system within the next year.
Focus - Moving away from the difficult to update, and completely non-’accessible’ structure, to valid structural HTML, and PHP for dynamic content.
Features - XHTML and CSS with PHP dynamically included content and some embedded multimedia.
HouseOfTheRisenSon.org
HouseOfTheRisenSon - My brother, Ken, is a religious fellow, and commissioned me to build a site for him. Something simple with a few pages, and a blog. About the time of launch, he was deployed into Baghdad, and 2 of his writers quit. He since found another writer. I’m not involved in the site other than the layout, and server maintenance.
Focus - Manipulated a photo Ken supplied me with, and manipulated an existing WordPress theme to fit the color scheme of the photo.
Features - WordPress driven CMS, online store using paypal.
CoxswainKeeper.com
CoxswainKeeper - Local entrepreneur, member of the UO Crew Club, and soon-to-be UO graduate, Adam Fagen invented a product called the CoxswainKeeper. The CoxswainKeeper is designed to prevent the coxswain from sliding around in a crew rowing boat.
Focus - Simple, yet stylish seems to be a theme I go for quite often. I wanted to take a crack at making one of the shiny 3D looking logos that can be seen all over the web these days.

University of Oregon: Tennis Club
Tennis Club - As a fundraiser for the waterski club, I offered to do web design work for other club sport teams who need it. I’m working for donations to the waterski club. Tennis was the first club to contact me.
Focus - I wanted something very simple, yet stylish here. I had a vision of a background resembling the curves of a tennis ball. Using Adobe Illustratorâ„¢ I created the symmetrical curves, and added the colors and texture effects using Adobe Photoshopâ„¢.
Features - Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS, PHP dynamically included content, and a photo album. Section 508 and WAI compliant under HiSoftware’s ® Cynthia Saysâ„¢ test.
University of Oregon: Waterski Club
Waterski Club - I founded the waterski club this past fall at the University of Oregon, so I built a website to help with the process, as well as share the schedule, multimedia, and other resources when things get rolling.
Focus - I wanted something very simple, yet stylish here. Some sort of header graphic was a must, I used a blown up shot of myself waterskiing from a video I have, and edited it a lot to flow with the colors in the site. Basically the goal of the site is to be able to share club news, schedule, pictures/video, and other resources once things get going in April.
Features - Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS, PHP dynamically included content, multimedia (videos and photos). Section 508 compliant under HiSoftware’s ® Cynthia Saysâ„¢ test.
University of Oregon: Department of Mathematics
math.uoregon.edu - During December of 2004, I was asked to design a new website for the Math department at the University of Oregon.
A bit of history - Since spring 2004, I’ve worked in the Math department (through the Computing Center), doing microcomputer technical support. Word got around that one of my hobbies was web design, and they asked me to submit a proposal. I think my rate was one of the better ones in the pot, and coupled with the fact that I’ll be there for the next couple of years in case anything catastrophic happens, I won out.
Focus - Their old site wasn’t pretty before. Many tables and font tags, cluttered directories, and all kinds of stuff. My goal here was to design a very clean, yet stylish, website that would be easy to navigate, and contain all the content they needed, and keeping it easy to maintain and expand.
Features - Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS, PHP dynamically included content, PHP random image rotator, and a photo album. Section 508 compliant under HiSoftware’s ® Cynthia Saysâ„¢ test.
