Design Elements: CSS, Photoshop conversion, Mouse overs, custom update ability.
More than just greens was born from an elegant Photoshop (PSD) file and then passed to IT Arsenal for website conversion. The design features a clean layout, mouse over links and a cross browser compatible layout. The unique aspect of More than Just Greens is that the client requested the ability to update specific portions of the website without the need of a web designer. We agreed on a short training session, overcame a few design hurtles and ended with a solution where Michelle (the client) is now able to update the cooking classes and add a menu page when needed.
Michelle was fun to work with.

Surfside Tech Support is a California technology service company. Their site although simple for a content management system features custom modules, Google adsense and custom backend Joomla components. Surfside Tech Support needed their site to look good but serious. Although dark, the colors play well to highlight the company’s services.
I built the site so it would be easily duplicated for small businesses in need of this type of site. It was up within two weeks and finished within a month. I typically offer a one time teaching lesson to the end user after the site has been finished enabling the client to maintain this content management type of site.

The site reflects the culture that is present at Jai – that of holistic living and at ease with nature. The site’s clean design and looks simulate the notion of simplicity and calm that is associated with yoga. The warm and subtle design of the website reflects the image the management of Jai! wanted to portray.
The website is also conveniently connected to an online calendar, which the studio management can update with ease. Not only that, the visitors can swiftly add any of the events to their calendar.

This website is for an international business consultant and economics professor. Connie Ostwald combines her expertise in social entrepreneurship and strategic marketing to work in the emerging arena of social marketing for both non-profit and for-profit organizations.
Since the client is a professional consultant as well as an academician, the site needed a look that could reflect her professionalism, but at the same time be personal. The website is aimed at providing information about the client in a neat and elegant manner.
