Take a look at the recent mock up. The client is not 100% happy with this concept so I will have a take #2 on this project.

I still think it is worth mentioning

I am currently redesigning my illustration portfolio hosted under: http://www.kingazak.com.

As Simple As That ® offers children’s programming that celebrates diversity and promotes tolerance in all walks of life. As Simple As That ® gives children a view of people and traditions from around the world. Decades of research has determined that early exposure to diverse people and cultures makes children less likely to be biased and engage in bullying behavior. With award-winning books like Dumplings are Delicious, Families are Forever, and Tooth Fairy Tales, children learn to appreciate the things that are unique to other people.

We created WordPress template for this client, with CMS functions. Here is screenshot of the contact form; to check out the rest of the site go to: http://blog.globalbirthdayparty.com/

We created the website for a fashion model. Everything is custom made to go with the retro feel.

We created Wordpress CMS that can be seen here:

http://www.laptoprepair.gb.com/

We used the WordPress system with appropriate plugins to make it possible. The client wanted to use this website as an SEO site, for his company. I think it works well!

When websites have to look clean and simple, it is such a challenge to make them look professional and give them a bit of personality – even if that personality is more like the designated driver than the life of the party! But we think it worked well in the Laptop Repair site that we built.

The site is quite data heavy in the content – so the design of the site couldn’t be too heavy, visually. The whole thing would just fall out of the computer if it weighed that much!! We used gradients to lift the banner and menu, and color mirroring and negatives to create an integrated look for this client.

We also created a custom icon to come up next to the page title on menus and tabs, rather than the standard Internet Explorer ‘E’.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

“I want a fresh, clean, classy design that has a lot of white space, using purple and one other color (light green, yellow, navy?). I’d like a header with a unique image, maybe something like a cartoon-ish brunette 40-something female in a travel setting. Descriptions that come to mind are jet-setter, world traveler, adventure, etc.

I want to make sure that each page has the meta tags that keep the pages from being indexed in search engines. I don’t want to put a password on the site, but I don’t want outsiders to be able to find it in a search engine.

This MUST be your own unique, original design. I don’t want something very similar to what I could have downloaded somewhere. It must be a cut above all those.”

This is also a rush job.

On seeing the final design, this is what client said:

“They did a super job of designing my website and making it functional to my specifications. Would not hesitate to hire them again - they obviously care about the quality of their work product and customer satisfaction. Communication was always prompt and clear. Overall extremely satisfied.”

We designed the header and a theme for this Wordpress blog http://www.manandhisbaby.com

This graphic template created for WordPress blogging system is kitsch and cute. This is what client said:

“These guys are great. They did a great job on my website. They did more than what I asked for. I was in contact with them throughout the project. They gave me several mock ups and let me choose and pick different elements from it. Highly recommended. Thanks!”

OBJECTIVE: Development of new site
FEATURES REQUIRED FOR WEBSITE: Database, Mailing List
CLIENT PROVIDES: Copy/Text
DESCRIPTION OF WEBSITE OR SIMILAR WEBSITES: The theme is reading and writing. It will showcase my work and promote my services as a freelance writer. It will also include recommendations of books I come across as a librarian in a small town.

Recently we created a website for Andrew Epplett. He writes about wide range of topics, including environmental issues, green technologies,and health choices. We created a website that is graphically based on the scrabble theme. We also integrated a Wordpress blog for him.

This is what Andrew said about the fnished design: “Very original designs - one of the reasons I chose them!”

We also created a blog for Andrew, following his directions explicitly.
