To create the xhtml and css for the new look homepage(s) which not only had to be pixel perfect but my work also had to fit into the stellent content management system.

I had to create a more modern, cleaner and faster loading web page. The navigation needed to be clearer and easier to use.

A huge amount of thought and research went into this one. I used the eye-tracking "F Pattern" for the design. I use a heat map on the page to spot patterns and fine tune the pages.

You know how people who are in a business never actually do their profession at home? You often hear of web designers who haven't updated their site in years.

I wanted to show that I really do love what I do and when I have some spare time I usually devote it to learning new techniques. On this web site I finally got around to learning sprite navigation which I've since included in 3 other web sites.
