Websites

Gary’s Creations

I enjoy helping other people create or enhance their on-line presence.

Once upon a time I built websites “from the ground up” with HTML and Notepad. Increasingly I have come to rely upon the mostly-free services and support available through WordPress.com.  Here are four such efforts.

The first is a simple page that I built for a local craftsman who creates wonderful wooden toys for children.  I spent a few hours photographing his creations, and a few more building his page.

The second was more elaborate, involving scores of field-trip reports, photographs, documents, links, clickable image maps, live calendar feeds, and a password-protected instruction manual.

The third contains real data that I and others collected in the field, and it was time-sensitive, politically-sensitive, unpaid and deeply rewarding.

The fourth built upon similar issues – except this time, dammit – it was our backyard – and frontyard.

Hopefully these and other efforts may help me answer my grandchildren when they ask: “ok, so what did you do to try to help, grandpa”?

My design philosophy is simple: to create websites that are attractive, rich with data, and easily maintained.

 
 Do you want or need something similar?  
Or something very different?
