BPS - Brookes Stephens Design Services

Afexp.com

My Contribution:

This site is setup to display a collection created by a specific designer. The collection consists of dresses that have a lot going on, so the design had to account for that, and not get in the way while still presenting vibrance and elegance.

• sub-contracted to design the layout, look, and color usage
• design the layout around the 960 grid system

And of course, outside of the items listed, i had my hands in just about everything else on this website.

AutoScoop.com

My Contribution:

AutoScoop.com as you see it is the product of myself and 1 other designer. When I got to AutoScoop the layout was limited in spacing and had rounded corners. At that time the website was a touch point for the nationally syndicated radio show. Adam Goldfien (the radio show host) was not satisfied with this and wanted the radio show to be a touch point for the website.

With that in mind, we created this layout which is built for content. I am mostly responsible for:

• the Iconography
• the graphic headers for "Find Your Car", "Find A Dealer", etc.
• Article Sections, Article Page layouts
• the "Sell Your Car" process, and design
• a lot of the ground work for getting the jQuery behaviors (slide onclick, show, hide, etc.)

And of course, outside of the items listed, i had my hands in just about everything else on this website.

PurseN.com

My Contribution:

This is a website that sells purse accessories, including inserts and sun-glass cases.

A Good friend of mine sub contracted me to help with this site. he is building the back-end store currently so the site is not complete, but it is online.

• Coded the HTML site templates from the clients design mock up (a MS Publisher file converted to PDF) using XHTML, CSS, PHP, jQuery (javascript)
• Animated the Flash intro (including the ActionScript redirect to a framework variable)
• jQuery'd the Home page hover state

SilveradoSuperSeats.com

My Contribution:

This microsite was simple. You have 4 days to create a Chevy Truck Month promo site highlighting both Chevy Truck Month and the Nascar race they are sponsoring. By the way, we want you to jam as much info into as you can, create a calender of promo dates, create a directory of participating dealerships, and make it look like it was done by Chevy. Good luck, I'd like to see a mock up by EOD.

The site was ready on time though.

GetInYourCar.com

My Contribution:

This is a re-design/re-skin of a microsite that was created for a promotion. The site already had a PHP "question picker" which would give you a custom form with tailored information to fill out based on the question picked. This one is not super-fantastic, but the version that was up previously was not pretty (we will just say it was orange and green boxes).

One of the issues with this site is that after i got the over all design done (template with the base colors of black and red), the client wanted me to create a few leaderboard banners and a main content section that were completely different colors (the client picked all the of colors).

It's not earth shattering, but considering the 2-3 day turn around time and me having to familiarize myself with the custom PHP form, it's not bad.

WordofLifeMarietta.com

My Contribution:

This was a site for my church (which has since moved and changed the name). I did the web design and logo design. It was a small site, but it did have some php and flash in it that I did myself.

This site had about 3 or 4 different iterations/designs. My Pastor let me do what I want so I did about 3 different redesigns, progressing each time.

I also did most of the flyer design for our outreach team and for events. feel free to look at some of the examples in the "Extras" section below.
