Redesign of the site for St. Timothy's Episcopal Church in Greenville, NC (my hometown). It features photo albums, video history, a calendar, audio from the most recent sermon, and a lot of great information for visitors and new parishioners.

My dad had been maintaining the site for several years. Like most projects, it simply got too big for its britches and became difficult to organize (for Dad) and navigate (for everyone else). After many hours of discussion and at least a few mind maps, we got the site from nearly 50 pages down to 11 while addressing the old site's issues with media, accessibility, and visual consistency.

Dad's quite pleased with the new design, although he insists that we really just put a new skin on his site!

Redesign of Angie Kirby's portfolio site. Angie is the graphic designer that I work with on all of my sites. If you like how my work looks, you have her to thank. (Other than this site, which was all me. But you could probably tell that…)

The old limetiger.com was a simple Flash site designed and executed by Angie. In (something similar to) her own words, the site was only usable by other designers — the rest of us were having trouble figuring out where the content was. Thankfully, she recognized that she needed to pull the important stuff out of Flash into the more accessible medium of HTML, and the rest is history.

One-page site for Jim Regan, an animator in Raleigh, NC. He recently embarked on his freelancing career and needed a portfolio site to show his work to potential clients. It seems to be working: Jim has work every time I talk to him!

The videos are displayed using a cute utility called LightWindow. It's a little flashier than simply embedding a media player, and it removes some of the headache associated with embedded media players. Jim can change his samples without having to worry about file format or getting someone (me) to update the code on the site. It also freed our layout from the necessity of accommodating multiple large video players.

You'll need QuickTime Player to view his movies, but you can look at the site with any old browser.

Brochure site for Wes Johnson, a home builder in Raleigh, NC. Wes needed a web presence, but nothing too extensive. The site features a simple photo gallery of homes he has built in the past.

Brochure site for Rye Johnson, a realtor in Raleigh, NC. Rye is Wes Johnson's sister (his site is just above), so Rye finds the clients and Wes builds them houses. Go team!

Some of the pages on the site are still works-in-progress, so they link to other sites for the time being.
