I have chosen the works below because of their quality, style, and relevance. They focus specifically on my ability to design web sites and interfaces as well as bring them to life by making them coded and fully functional. I code and develop websites according to the most recent web standards (XHTML & CSS) to ensure the highest level of usability. All of my designs and interfaces spare no quality, with my workflow and high expectations, I do not settle for 'average' work, and I like to let my work speak for itself.
If you would like to inquire about my services, please feel free to message me so that I can give you a free estimated quote for your project or answer any questions that you may have.
If you are a fellow designer or if you are someone who is interested in web or interface design, be sure to check out my free tutorials. I also have a store available online which sells more advanced tutorials and source files which expose many of my personal techniques and secrets in easy to understand ways. If you are interested, I am sure you will enjoy what I offer both for free and for sale. Questions? Feel free to contact me.
This is a fully functional and well polished, Winamp Modern Skin. It was developed by The Skin Consortium, and designed by myself. KrazyPlayer won the 2008 Winamp Freestyle Skinning Contest held by DeviantART, plus it has earned a Daily Deviation and an overwhelming response throughout the skinning and interface community. We are currently working on a new version of the player with more modes and more features. The second release will be far more public than the first. More information about that is coming soon.
For more technical information about this skin, check out the DeviantART submission. If you use and enjoy the skin, feel free to leave a comment or add it to your favorites, it would be greatly appreciated. A wallpaper version is also available by clicking here. (1280x1024)
These interface designs are for a flash mp3 player that is used to sell music online. The client wanted multiple players so I created several varied themes. They are mostly based on a sleek metal technique that I have developed over time.
I went to Hawaii in April (2007) and ever since I got back, making a tropical themed web design has been on my mind. This was a very fun design, and it was a great way to learn how to make organic elements thrive in a web design. The live version features an audio track and a simple animation to set the tropical mood. Enjoy.
Crysis.si - Full Web Site (+ Flash) - November 2007
This was just a concept I came up with that was different from my normal style. I had been creating mostly dark/tech interface designs and this was one of the first clean layouts I made that really inspired me to continue that kind of work.
My old brother was looking into starting his own drum lessons and was curious about a web site for it. The site never reached development, but the design and colors would have worked well online.
Scattered along the length of California, Blank Road is a band of songwriters, singers and musicians dedicated to creating original music in the American rock, folk and pop traditions. For more than 30 years, the members of Blank Road have been writing, arranging and performing their original material. The band has now begun an effort to commit its extensive and growing catalogue of original songs to the scrutiny of the recording studio - and to make this collection available to friends, fans and music lovers everywhere.
This was an experimental interface/web layout based on an earlier work of mine called "sleekBlack" that you can see by scrolling down. This version however, is based off of a white shape with lots of subtle details that makes it more interesting to look at as a whole.
This is the second attempt at making an all black shape come to life by adding details to the inner frame to create a sleek looking effect. Working on this was very interesting and I learned a lot about Photoshop in the process.
This was the previous version of this web site. It was my first attempt at creating a dynamic portfolio web site that wasn't made in flash. Most of my older work has a lot of flash involved, but because of the obvious compatibility issues with flash, I have recently moved into the XHTML/CSS area of web design. This portfolio site was an experiment, and I liked how much easier it was to work with hybrid web sites.
Chad Pennington of Sobitart came to me a few years ago in need of a cool flash portfolio web site. After the first version was made, he wanted something fresh and new, so he designed the layout for v2 and sent it over to me for development. It was one of my favorite flash web sites to develop, as well as one of the most advanced. I still work with Chad on other web projects, all of which you can see in the archive section of my web site.
This was a personal experiment with creating a smooth metallic surface from scratch. I have continued using the technique in this interface in many other designs. I have a strong and fascinating interest in dark/tech interface design, and this was my first attempt at bringing an originally all black shape to life using only gradients, the selection tool, and blending modes.
Portfolio (v6) - Full Flash Web site - February 2007
This is the sixth portfolio website I made, and at the time is was the most advanced site I ever made both graphically and functionally. All the content was dynamic and easy to update, and the entire website loaded fast. I used flash, actionscript, php, html, css, photoshop, after effects, and javascript to make it work the way I envisioned it. It also included a full featured right click menu, advanced mp3/music player, and interactivity and smooth scrolling on all pages. I won multiple awards and recognitions for its advanced look and feel.
Sonoma County Project Graduation - Full Web site - January 2007
Sonoma County Project Graduation was founded in 1987 in response to increasing drug and alcohol use among students on their graduation night – statistically the most dangerous night of the year for young people. Inspired by an alcohol and drug free party thrown by Sonoma Valley High School, the very first Project Grad was organized for five Santa Rosa schools by a group that included CHP officers, MADD members, 4H representatives, and other community leaders. Since then, the efforts have spread from the Santa Rosa district to eighteen schools across Sonoma County.
For curious viewers who would like to see a more comprehensive collection of my works, take a look at my deviantArt gallery as well as the archive section of this web site which consists of projects I have done starting from 2002 until now. This includes a wide range of multi-media related works (video, animation, interactive, web, graphic, etc.).
The archive section is split into three different categories; (1) client projects, (2) previous portfolio sites, and (3) personal artworks and projects. Some of these do not reflect my current style or preferences. If you need more information on any of these projects, message me.
