After a few months of waiting, I’m finally able to announce the arrival of the newly redesigned site for Hilton’s HHonors Points & Miles program. It’s a fairly large site and I think it came together quite nicely. It’s another site with a CSS-based layout and accessibility enhancements throughout. Take a look at the original [...]
My brother (Russell) and sister-in-law (Kathey) had a great Halloween party that I attended this weekend. Everyone had a really great time. I was really impressed with all the costumes. There were witches, grim reapers, green and blue people, and a bunch of other wonderfully creative ones. I dressed up as an extra from Hitchcock’s [...]
It’s been over a year since I took a “real” vacation. And let me tell you, that’s entirely too long! So during my much-needed week of vacation last week, I headed down to Austin for some rest and relaxation away from the big city (and work). This was the first time I’ve just let go [...]
A few months ago I announced the launch of my second commercial success using a completely table-less CSS layout. This month I’m proud to announce the launch of my third one. Once again, I had the unique opportunity to work on a small site for 3M with very few constraints. Like the previous sites there [...]
After considerable time and effort, I’ve finally figured out a way to provide accurate examples of the code done on my Website projects. The problem has been that the code we deliver doesn’t always match the code that actually gets launched for the final site. There are a variety of reasons why this is the [...]
My brother, sister-in-law and I had a wonderful time visiting with family at my Uncle John and Aunt Diane’s home in Canton, Texas, about an hour and a half east of Dallas. It was beautifully peaceful and relaxing—a great escape from the city. I had fun photographing old tractors, plows, barns, and all kinds of [...]
Last month I announced the launch of my first commercial success using a completely table-less CSS layout. This month I’m proud to announce the launch of my second one. I had the unique opportunity to work on a small site for 3M with very few constraints. So, I took the opportunity to put some Web [...]
Once again, I’ve dragged out the photo studio lights and taken some nice closeup photos. This time I was inspired by my guitar. I’ve owned this guitar for ages, but never have been serious about learning to play it with any level of competence. Lately, I’ve been practicing twice a day for the past few [...]
My good friend Rob and I have recently launched a small freelance project for a biomedical waste management company in Port Arthur, Texas. I’m fairly excited about this project. It’s my very first commercial success using a completely table-less CSS layout.
In addition to the SXSX Interactive conference photos I uploaded recently, I’ve added a few photos to the Macro photo set on my Flickr account. They’re closeup photos taken while roaming around the Austin Convention Center as well as from different parts of Austin.
