To describe my involvment within each of the presented projects, I use three different terms. Well, actually it's four, with Flash animations as the last one, but I do not concern meself as a Flash person, so I decided to list few Flash projects here, but only in General section.
To help you understand what I actually mean by using it, here is a short explanation:
Designer - I designed the site, its look & feel
[ click here to see designing involved jobs ]
Coder - I coded the site using HTML/CSS [ click here to see coding involved jobs ]
Programmer - I programmed interactive/dynamic elemets using PHP language, very often with support of MySQL database, or a simple text file

Description:
The site of LA based painter. The look & feel was designed by the artist herself.
Feat:
Basic CMS (based on a text file) that allows edition of home page's info, as well as adding new paintings images, change their order and move them witin two categories.
Each time the new painting image is printed, a PHP function detects its height and width and creates CSS on the fly - to position it evenly above and below the horizon line.
Description:
The site of local (LA) graphic designer.
Feat:
Basic CMS (based on a text file) that allows adding new projects within each category. Each project's image, that is presented to the viewer, can be actually sliced into many parts (it's up to Ruby), to reduce a download time frame.
The script I wrote calculates how many slices (images) are there for each project, and then prints images out next to each other, so they look like a one image.

Feat:
Standard contact form
External PHP array files for easy updates of Testimonial section (all of it is dynamic)
Database based CMS
Two dynamic CSS sheets (among the others) for main menu and sub menu - when a link is clicked the scripts determine which one, and renders style sheets with proper set of images - look at the bottom line of main menu, each time main section changes, so does the look of the menu. Also look at the sub menu, every time a link from given section is clicked, the CSS changes to apply new look for the entire section

Description:
Production of the banner based on the art work delivered by the Art Dept.
Feat:
the original look is very 'curvy', there are lots of lines interacting with each other. Art Dept came up with the idea of those line being a part of woman's image. My task was to make all of the theory ideas work.
Project:Newsletter (E-Blast) System
Job Title:
Programmer
Description:
Project for Las Vegas based company who wanted to have full control over newsletters being sent out to interest list's users.
Feat:
To read any article one has to be a member, and database with members is hosted on a different server with no external connection possible, so I had problems with connecting to it.
At the end, I simply used floating frame to display a page from the host server, with a connection to its local database.
Works like a charm :)
