Essential Design

Just so you know... I'm now also designing BlogAds. Cheap! So, if you'd like some help with yours, let me know.

These are a few other sites I've designed. A lot of the work I've done is look-alike redesign (see the last example). Another specialty is translating templates from one type of blog software to another. I don't like to claim them as 'original' designs but I do want you all to know I do that sort of work!

Balloon Juice

This was an earlier design and was designed to be readable in noncompliant browsers (even NS 4.7).It has round-the-corner graphics. We were going for a kind of old-timey lithograph theme here.

On the Third Hand.

This one is also skinned, you'll find changeable CSS on the sidebar. It was designed to be attractive and quick-loading. It also was designed to not look like everyone else's blog.

Reason of Voice

This one was a redesign of a blogspot template, which was more extensively redesigned after he moved to MT. He wanted a simple, professional look.

the talking dog

This was a "look-alike" redesign, translated from a template originally done in MS Front Page. You'll note that I do design to the client's taste, not my own!

In addition to complete designs, redesigns, and 'translations', I will also do design tweaks, set up skins for a site and create alternate templates (such as for PDA browsers or printers).

No job is too small!
