The original splash page for my home site: DilateYourMind.com.

“Future Splash” sure has come a long way. What started as a little vector drawing application, is now used to develop fully animated and interactive web sites. Here is one of the first Flash movies that I created using ActionScript, this simple application helped me to understand the basics of the language. After the user […]

GlassRoots Innovations contracted me to construct their e-commerce site. The final product allowed the owners to upload a continually changing catalog of hand-blown glass items. It also featured an admin section that allowed them to track orders and overall web-cite traffic. Once, located at glassrootsinnovaions.com, the company has since shut down.
