design

bushtwinspartyhour.com

Site for Bush Twins Party Hour, the web series and occasional live show. I designed and produced the site from the ground up -- CSS, code, copy, scripting, the whole works. (Okay, so there's a little clip art. But the overall design's all mine.) Thanks to clean, descriptive code, the site consistently ranks on the first page of Google results for "bush twins". Optimize your code, and you optimize your search engine performance. End of SEO lesson.

 

Rose Knows

Powered by WordPress. The design uses a premade template as a jumping-off point - the basic skeleton remains, but everything from the font to the images have been modified. As traffic increases and content gets fleshed out, I'll be adding ad units. Any questions? Ask away!

 

jpaulzimmerman.com

"Make it plain," he said. "No, plainer." So here it is: A very plain site, set up so it's easy for the site owner to update. I hate it when other site developers don't take responsibility for what happens after they hand off the site. It's kind of rude, isn't it? (I'm not a big fan of frames, but they're used here because they turned out to be less confusing for the client than includes or a content management system.)(Local copy)

SoapVivor

The Africa edition of the WebAward-winning community-driven feature on SoapCity.com, for which I was the co-creator, co-writer and primary programmer. Site designed by Chris Green, then hand-coded by yours truly. (Web Archive link; may be incomplete)

 

wesweb.net

Wesweb started out as the fairly official web site for John Wesley Harding; now it's the low-bandwitdh alternative to the more-official www.johnwesleyharding.com. I wrote the majority of the copy. Yes, it looks like it's stuck in 1997. We like it that way.

 

wesweb.net - The Confessions Of St. Ace

Central hub for all things related to JWH's album The Confessions Of St. Ace. Design based on album packaging and promotional materials.
