My work
Hey, That’s My Site
June 25, 2009
Today, I was reading through my RSS feeds and came to an article, 23 Flourish Designs, Part 2 on Inspiredology. I opened it up, and to my surprise, was a partial screenshot of big-break.com, a site that I designed at the end of 2008. Thanks for the honor, Inspiredology.
Where is the fun haiku
September 24, 2008
Where did the fun go? Many detail tasks to attend I want to design My team leader mentioned yesterday that the fun has not been in his work recently. I feel the same way. I want to design or craft a Web page. But too many other details or meetings have taken my time. These are […]
Adventures in sIFR
July 8, 2008
I enjoy the challenge of learning how to do new things. Working with the Web is a great fit because there are always things to learn. Over the past year, I have tried to incorporate something new into every Web design project that I do. I am currently working on a new design for Campus Crusade’s […]
GodSquad.com helps launch new outreach in North Carolina
March 3, 2008
This is a story that highlights how one of the Web sites I develop is helping Campus Crusade to reach students by launching new ministries: In North Carolina, a pastor’s wife emailed Campus Crusade’s staff wanting to start a ministry at Richmond Community College. By the time the staff met with her, the pastor’s wife […]
“Control” on the Web
May 18, 2007
Lately, one of my interests has been to improve my skills in the area of typography (started after hearing Cameron Moll’s Essential Web Skills). I have read a couple of books on the subject and come across some great resources on the Web. A couple of weeks ago, I heard Richard Rutter of Clearleft speak to […]
Off to Denver
January 1, 2007
I am heading to Denver today to attend the Denver Christmas Conference. This is a gathering over about 1000 students from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming and other places. I am going to be interviewing students at the conference to help me guide me in future improvements to GodSquad.com. I am taking the […]
The Holy Spirit and Creativity
October 30, 2006
Originally posted on Godly Creative People Forum on August 22. It gives a little more background on the heart behind my new theme of “thirtyonethree.“ This summer I took a theology class with Dr. Bruce Ware of Southern Seminary. One of the lectures focused on the Holy Spirit. Dr. Ware pointed out that the Holy […]
thirtyonethree :: Launch of a new theme
October 23, 2006
I am excited to finally launch a new theme/look to this website. I was inspired this summer by Exodus 31:3. Bezalel was a craftman who was filled with the Holy Spirit to make “artistic designs” in the building of the Tabernacle. Craftman is the word I would use to describe myself. And I hope that […]
GodSquad Reboot — Take 2
September 5, 2006
Last month I was working on a CSS Reboot of one of my sites, GodSquad.com. It is the only one of my sites that is still using tables for layout. A CSS Reboot is taking a HTML table based design and converting it into XHTML and CSS. Using CSS separates the content from the presentation. […]
CollegeWalk mentioned on Breakpoint (updated)
August 12, 2006
One of the sites that I designed and developed, CollegeWalk, was mentioned yesterday on Chuck Colson’s Breakpoint. CollegeWalk helps connect Christian freshman to campus ministries. The site was mentioned as a resource at the end of the segment on character on the college campus. CollegeWalk is a site that I would like to develop further […]
CM2007 :: My Latest Design
August 11, 2006
My latest design project was to build a website for CM2007. CM2007 is Campus Crusade for Christ’s first global student missions conference and it will be held next summer in South Korea. Much as the Student Volunteer Movement launched a wave of college students to the world as missionaries, Campus Crusade is trusting God for a […]
Throwing in the towel
August 10, 2006
I have decided to throw in the towel on a CSS Reboot design of GodSquad. (A reboot is taking a design laid out with tables and converting it to XHTML/CSS for layout.) I just can’t get a significant element to look good in IE6. I think I am going to settle for some middle ground […]
Working on Another Design
August 1, 2006
I also started working on some design ideas to redo the homepage of campuscrusadeforchrist.com. I have been wanting to do that for awhile. I don’t like the present one. I am pretty happy with the direction it is going so far. See my work in progress>
CSS Reboot for GodSquad, Day 4
August 1, 2006
Today was my fourth day of trying to move a design from using tables to layout the page to using XHTML/CSS. Each day I am able to solve some problems and learn something new but I am still not there yet. I am frustrated that IE6 renders things so differently from a standards compliant browser […]
New Look 2.0 and 2.1
March 25, 2006
I gave the site a new look on Friday. I was watching the NCAA tournament and liked the color scheme of the Final Four logo so I used it with the site. I may play with it a little bit more but I like it much better than my previous theme. I did play with the […]
What Makes GodSquad.com Successful??
December 21, 2005
I recently got an email from a former Campus Crusade for Christ staff member who is now working with Prison Fellowship. He wanted to get some tips based on my work with GodSquad.com. Here is my response: To be honest, I am having some trouble in determining what to tell you. I feel like the […]
Changes
December 9, 2005
Last Friday, I found out that I am joining another team. I will now be part of the Innovation Center fo Technology. If I understand correctly, I am going to continue to do what I have been doing, which is maintaining and evolving several key Web assets. Several weeks ago, I had proposed creating an […]
Radio Interview
December 9, 2005
It was an interesting experience being interviewed on the radio yesterday. I thought it was being taped and it was live and I did not really get prepped. I had prepared some things in my head which was helpful. I think it went well. Much like my wedding. I feel like it went by quickly […]
Going to Be on the Radio
December 8, 2005
This morning I was asked to do a radio interview. Skylight Radio Network contacted Campus Crusade wanting to interview someone about how Christians could use the Narnia movie as an outreach opportunity. My team leader suggested me and our director of corporate communications contacted me. I have put together some resources on GodSquad.com on this […]
Into Narnia
December 7, 2005
I have spent the last five days working on a booklet that students can use to share the gospel using the movie, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. I estimated that I spent over 20 hours on it. I was very excited when I finished it yesterday. It was a labor of love and […]
