PROJECT: Web Design (hand coded)*

BRIEF: Design and produce a standards-compliant ten-page or more website only via hand coded html/css, including a sitemap, menu, a working CGI form, relative links, meta tags, optimized images, css positioning, consistency with fonts, graphics, color, and content. All pages must validate.

SOLUTION: A fourteen-page website, initially created for a web publishing class final project. Site graphics were all original, created in Illustrator and modified in Photoshop. Included PDF download links, a fill-in contact form that generated a “thanks” reply on submission. On completion of the class (with an A!) the site was further expanded, and used as the family sailing/cruising website. It later included an online photo album created in JAlbum, a blog, and dynamic links to the vessel’s exact location sent via satellite phone while offshore on ocean passages.

*I have since completely re-designed and re-created this site with many additions and improvements, using the WordPress platform, the Virtue Premium theme by Kadence Themes, and custom css. The new, improved, responsive site can be viewed at: www.shanachie.org
