Web

I have been working on a few design projects for some companies that I am not at liberty to post just yet. Once they go live, up they will go.

Also, I know this isn’t “web” really, but I did a logo for a great whole food supplement company that is in development as we speak. I will keep you all posted.

Web

It has been quite some time since I updated you all with some of my more recent Web work. At the start of the New Year, I was assigned to design and develop a new Intranet site for one of clients for their Risk Management and Journal Review department. I know sounds exciting huh? Not so much, but at least they were open to my influence and ideas.

I am just in the process now of templating this bad boy for our CMS so I can get them up an rolling within the next week or so. As far as size and difficulty goes, this site was not so bad at all actually. I encountered almost no resistance whatsoever, except when working with the masthead logo as it was a PNG, so IE was not playing so nice with it at first. I got it working though for the IE users, since our entire company is a Microsoft shop, it was kind of important!
