Invitations, Programs, Announcements

Added a new category in the portfolio that includes some of the new invitations and wedding programs we have designed. A video presentation is also included.

Self publishing

I added a FAQ in the Book section of my portfolio that details everything involved in self publishing and the process of building a book from scratch. For those of you who don't know where to start, this might be a good resource.

Integrating the blog

trying to make the blog work within the site...

Revamped Website

I've been working on the new look for the website using some of the CSS stuff I learned last week. I basically made it look the way i wanted it in PhotoShop and then did the mouseovers and output in ImageReady. It's a little old school in that it uses an image map rather than a cool Flash applet but I plan on getting the new Adobe Creative Suite 3 Designer Package that actually came out today asap. I think that will make things more efficient and make more animations possible. I may put together a sort of "How I did it" page to better explain the techniques i used to make this page come together. Hope you like it!

Web Design

Prior to my last five years in the print publishing industry, I spent a little time designing websites and flash applets. Things got so busy that I let that technology pass me by. In considering the overall need for graphic designer services, it appears that the ability to design top-notch, functional websites would open my business up to a much larger client base. I have alwayas been comfortable setting up simple "web presence" websites but lately not much more than that.

Therefore, I have purchased the latest version of Dreamweaver and am currently studying up on CSS and some of the other new features in HTML programming. I hope to soon be able to program more useful and usable websites which I can then offer my clients as part of the Business Identity packages.

I'll post samples when I have them.
