Design by GB is Greg's web development company. It's young and still working on getting fully up to speed with the state of technology.
It all started in 10-06 when Greg purchased a copy of Macromedia Studio. The original thought was simply to make a website for the new church plant, True North. Since then I have made several more, each one becoming a little more sophisticated than the last. I am continually challenging myself to greater heights just to see if I can meet my own challenges.
My style lately has been XHTML transitional code with full CSS styling. No HTML style tags here (how mid-90's). Future ideas for expansion: Java & Flash... just need to come up with the hours to learn the systems.
My projects:
- True North
- True North is the name of the church plant that Tracy and I are involved with. Dan Vandock came to me with a powerpoint layout and said he wanted a layout to look "something like this". It definitely was beyond what I could do (since I couldn't do anything at that point) It ended up being pretty cool and even got me into podcasting.
- Share it with Joy!
- What a better place to experiment with new web design skills than my wife's company. It was my first foray into 100% CSS styling. I really liked the results.
- Crossover Custom Guitars
- What a fun project - custom guitars! Will came to me with an idea to show off his line of custom guitars. I came back with a different idea for presenting his work. I was very pleased with the final product on this one!
- Update, Fall 07: Added a blog to this site. How much easier could updating your own website be? Now I have an excuse to buy books on PHP & MYSQL (as if I needed one...)
- Author Will Hinton
- Here is my latest challenge : Will wrote a book - let's sell it on the web! It's kind of the quick way to get into web selling through Paypal. I've even got a sweet little Java app to read some page excerpts. I'm pretty proud since it's my first completely hand-written code that actually works for something more than passing an excercise in the book.
What does the future hold? Hopefully a lot more exciting websites coming soon. Would you like me to look at doing a website for you? Drop me a line and you could be the next website I do. |
