A friend of mine got me in contact with his cousin, who needed a Logo for his Military Supply Store, Demon Rigs. It was nice to step out of my usual element and make something a little different. We went through 2 rounds of revisions, I followed some guidelines for what he wanted to see, and he was happy the third revision.
design
Cullinan Park Conservancy Site Build
Site built for Cullinan Park Conservancy in Sugarland, TX. I designed and built this site, site design was finalized after one round of revisions. Site features photo gallery, event listings, photo contest, twitter feed, and site search. Site was built using a custom child theme for thematic, on wordpress cms.
Eagle Mineral Company Site Build
Eagle Mineral Company needed a site built, and built quickly, I put this together overnight and they were happy with it. Sometimes short and simple is all you need.
Hornaday Design Site Build
My colleague Will Hornaday asked me to build his portfolio site that he designed. I built the site on wordpress, and used the viewport theme to achieve the sliding panels of the portfolio pages, then created a custom template for the blog pages. I used jquery to create the fade-in animation as the home page loads, and used this post to figure out how to get the random image to load.
Eagle Service Group Site Build
I designed and built this wordpress site for Eagle Service Group. I worked with the client through two rounds of design revisions, then built the theme using thematic.
I used MMForm Community to handle the various forms on the site, it is a good form plugin, and it’s free, another option if you ever need to collect any data on your site.
Sinolynx.com
Launched Sinolynx.com, an informational site for business to business company involved in Chinese trading.
I built the site on wordpress 3, designed the layout and graphics, and built the theme on thematic.
Limacinternational.com
Launched the Limac International, LLC site this week for the international effort of the Limac Corporation.
I built the site on wordpress 3, designed the layout and graphics, and built the theme on thematic.
SINOLYNX logo design
I was contracted to make a logo for a new company focused in international trade with China. The founders formed the name SinoLynx, LLC and asked me to come up with whatever came to mind. Here are the four original choices I sent them.
There was a unanimous choice for 3, with the small revision of adding an actual “lynx” to the image. Which can be seen in the final version here :
I’ll be developing the site as well, and will post links to that as it get’s completed.
FunCity iPhone Icon
I was contracted to design the Fun City iPhone icon.
15RoseAve.com is feeling better now
Some minor visual fixes and suddenly a site can turn feel so much better. I finally got back to cleaning up the visual flaws that were bothering me on 15roseave.com, and added some new functionality as well.
Re-worked the header,
added a global translation plug-in,
polished the social sidebar and now it includes the recent tweets,
Made the reservation button a fixed tab, and easy to understand,
and did a complete overall to the Rooms & Rates page, as well as the room pages themselves.
The wall is getting some action,
and I was finally able to write a few posts for the experiences.
And using the wonderful Twitter Tools plugin I have a tweet digest reporting all the tweets of the day, which is actually quite useful as I’m using the 15 rose twitter to RT any and all awesome things happening in the Venice/Santa Monica Area, so follow us if that’s your thing.
Head over and check out 15roseave.com sometime, let me know what you think. And if your looking for a place to stay in California, well, you know where you can go…
