http://www.flagstaffbiking.org - NEW FlagstaffBiking.org. I have been working for a long time on this site. It is going to be a great community based web site! The site has a dynamic registration process and all the modules are synchronized per user name.This sophisticated site utilizes 3 great softwares. Xoops, osCommerce, and Invision Power Board.There are also many other modules integrated. The purpose of this site is to make it an interactive community where cyclist can discuss and get together on cycling related issues.

http://www.racewipes.com/ - Racewipes, April 2004. An interesting project I got to work on because of a referral from crstires.com. The owner of Racewipes needed to upgrade his web site to be able to handle orders and I made it happen. There were a few things I took in consideration with this project. The website had to be in complete control of the owner. It had to adapt if the owner decided to add more pages. The menu was designed with this in mind. I also wanted the site to have an unique look and match the colors of the company's logo.

http://www.csulb.edu/sportmanagement/ - CSULB Sport Management, October 2003 - May 2005. As a Graduate Assistant at California State University one of my responsibilities was to develop and oversee the official web site of the Sport Management program. The site is completely designed with server-side includes (SSI)and relies almost entirely on cascading stylesheets (CSS).

http://www.mtnchristmas.com/ - Mountain Christmas of Flagstaff, October 2003. Mountain Christmas is a store in Flagstaff that sell a broad variety of Christmas and home decor products. Unique in this project was the wishlist module and a database driven drop-down menu I added to the e-commerce site. Because of the dynamic menu the owner has complete control over their web site.

http://www.crstires.com/ - California Race Services, August 2003. The California Race Services (CRS) web site is intended to focus strictly on motorcycle racing tires, while StickyTires (below) is going to sell tires on a much broader spectrum. The CRS site has many unique functions to the motorcycle racing industry. I installed an events calendar that combines with a custom pick-up at an event shipping module (events extracted from the database). The site also features individual prices for sponsored riders and an ability to send contingencies (manufacturer discount and rewards) to successful riders.

http://www.stickytires.com/ - Sticky Tires, February 2003- ???. The site has been put on the shelf for the moment The owner wants to focus on crstires.com first.

http://www.frontline-energy.com/ - Frontline Energy Services, December 2002. A friend of mine introduced me to the owner of Frontline Energy Services. Within a few weeks after I agreed to design a web site for his company. Utilizing his business logo I started developing what became a very difficult project for me. The round shape of his logo inspired me to try a similar shape for his web site Throughout the project I stumbled upon difficulties. For once, I had to design a custom made scrollbar because the default background color would not fit in. I also was forced to make a second layout of the site since the 800*600 pixel circle was way too small for people using the 1024*768 screen resolution. I solved this with a resolution sniffer at the index page. By using the above address you will be directed to the proper site for your screen resolution.

http://www.flagstaffmountainfilms.com - Flagstaff Mountain Film Festival, January 2002. A Mountain Film Festival event put on by Flagstaff Biking Organization. I started this project with a few goals in mind: I wanted the site to be designed in a fluid way so that it would adapt to two screen resolutions. I decided that the larger resolution viewers (1024*768)would see a little more of each corner than the smaller resolution viewers (800*600). The smaller resolution users would not miss any of the important parts of the site, while the larger resolution users would simply see a little extra. (see screen views below). The entire site is controlled by cascading stylesheets and so is the layout. The main "canvas" area will center itself on the screen automatically. UPDATE: For 2005-2006 I have developed a more practical Content Management Site for the film festival:
NEW SITE:

http://www.thefinnisher.com/teamx/web site/ - Team X, July-Nov 2002. Entrepreneurial work to form a professional mountain biking team. My goal was to make a web-browser based proposal that could be submitted online, and on a 8cm CD-ROM. I chose the web-based format because I wanted to be environmentally-concious (paperless), and because it was a more cost effective way to reach prospective sponsors. The proposal had to have an attractive layout and a quick download time. In addition it had to be easy to read and navigate through.

My sponsorship search online logbook can be found at: http://www.thefinnisher.com/teamx/log.htm
