I was approached by Future Control in early April 2009 to design and develop a new web site to replace their exiting Flash website. The design brief was to create a website that would be more indexable for search engines. They wanted the website to be content and image heavy. The new website would be more informative with space for more text and images than the previous website. The client also wanted to be able to edit and update the website with text and images themselves, and this meant setting up a simple content management system behind the scenes.
I designed and developed this website in its entirety, using;
- Photoshop
- XHTML
- CSS 2.0
- Dreamweaver
- Flash
- JQuery
- PHP
- Cushy CMS
- Google Analytics Tracking
- Optimised for Search Engines

This is the recently completely EQ2 website, which I partly designed and completely built in early February and March of 2009. For this website I had to build two websites of the same design, one for the .eu.com domain and one for the us.com domain. Each of the website's content differed due to continental translations. Full control and management of the website was handed over after completion to be, so there may be some differences from the live website now and how it was when initially developed.

This is another small brochure website completed whilst working for xperience GB. The site design had already been predesigned by the client's marketing/branding team and it was then sent to me to slice and build. Although this was a very small scale project, it's always useful to work on a project like this as it means having to work with other people outside your own company and the experience of dealing with these outside designers is always useful.

Having designed and developed the original Campbell and Slevin website in 2003, it was time for a revamp and I was once again approached by the company to carry out a redesign in early 2009. The majority of the content was to remain the same, but the design and style was to be brought up to date.
Campbell and Slevin also wanted to be able to track and analyse the users of the website, something which they hadn't been doing before, this meant adding Google Analytics. The website was also set up for search engine optimisation, with all the relevant keywords, alt and title attributes added along with a XML sitemap, which was submitted to Google. The business and website URL was also added to Google Maps.

This website was designed and developed by myself in December 2008 whilst working for my current employers. I developed all aspects of the website apart from the Flash headers. The website was designed for a Wakefield based insurance brokers. The design had to compliment their existing brand colours and logo. The client wanted the website to look modern but professional and maintain a corporate look. The navigation also had to be clear, as there are quite a few pages in various sections.

The Yorkshire Icons website was first designed and developed in early 2008 by another member of the xperience GB staff, but since then it has had various sections redesigned and added by myself. The sections added over the past year have all been designed and developed by myself and these include the Olympic and Paralympic sections, ITV's 40 Years of Icons, The Gala Event and I also worked on apsects of The Seeds of Yorkshire although I did not develop the Flash.
As the original website was first designed in .NET, I recently had the task of transferring the entire website over to XHTML. Although this wasn't a difficult task it was time consuming and elaborate as a HTML page had to be created for every Icon's profile where previously this had just been a template with content added using XML.

The Backstage Academy is a website developed for an academical course run by Wakefield College and Litestructures, Wakefield. Myself and 3 other colleagues worked on the design and development of the website. The website features various elements of flash and JQuery. At the moment the purpose of the website is to act as an online brochure for the new academic course, but when the course actually begins in the coming months, students will be able to log in and access a virtual learning environment.

JMK CCTV is a small brochure website for a CCTV systems installation company based in my native Omagh, Northern Ireland. I designed and developed the website in June 2009. Having been given nothing more than a logo and some basic company iformation, I was asked to come up with a clean design at an affordable price. I also had to write the majority of the content for the website. The client was extremely satisfied with the end the result.

Another small brochure website created for the Yorkshire Foundation charity. Although I didn't work on the majority of the site design I did develop it. As a small website the brief was very simple, as the nature of the Yorkshire Foundation is a charitable organisation promoting Yorkshire, the website had to be clear with a modern and majestic style. The gold colour palette, imagery and typeface used helps to show these things.
