Welcome to my site, this site is basically a test ground for some of my work and ideas, a portfolio and a way for me to help out anyone in need of assistance. This site is currently undergoing changes, I'm currently converting all content to PHP and MySQL. All projects are currently available on the front page.


Now a little bit of boring stuff...
I find pretty much everything interesting, but my passion is design, i love to create new things to try and get the wow factor into every design if possible, i am nearly all self taught from knowing nothing about web sites, CAD, flash to my current level i wouldn't boost that i know everything far from it but what i don't know i find/figure out quickly, the internet and its ability's are continually expanding with new techniques and endless possibilities.

I enjoy trying to push my own limitations in what i'm capable of, this is the way i have learnt everything i currently know, it just goes to show that if you put your mind to it anything can be done. I'm currently learning PHP (which this site is built on) and everyday its becoming even more easy to understand what does what and were goes where. I have been using around with design programs for about 3 years i use most of the Adobe range and Some of Autodesks programs.

My first glance

When i first looked at some of these programs i was mind boggled at what i thought was the complexity of them, but with a little guidance, found these programs to be a god send to do most of the designs my brain was coming up with.

Idealy i would love to work in the Web Design industry and flex some of my skills and learn even more in doing so, i would also love to work in the Visual Effects industry i find such inspiration by others work which makes me want to better my work and perform to the best of my ability.

( If your the owner/manager of a company and are looking for another employee i would love to show you what im capable of then please contact me, i would be pleased to come for an interview and grateful for the opportunity)
My work is throughout this site so please take a look and see what you think. I understand that this is a competative market but you will not find a more eager person than me.

I have created other versions of this site in the past although they were mainly to try and break into the industry, if you look at the bottom of every page you will see : v1 v2 v3 v4 these are all different version none of which i liked but from each version came more knowledge on how to do different things and as the saying goes practice makes perfect. This site however is based around me and what i have done, can do and am doing, in sort a giant portfolio :-)
I'm a keen learner and i am interested in learning just about anything when it comes to designing... i read an article a while back about web design :

You Know You're a Slave to Web Design When
http://webdesign.about.com/od/jobs/qt/web_design_slav.htm Geeky i know but everything i read on there kept saying I'm a slave to design, and its true i will sit in front of my computer all day tinkering, designing, tweaking, fiddling... well you get the picture. Take a read of the above article and find out it you are potentially A SLAVE TO WEB DESIGN.

Anyway, enough of that take a look round my site and see what you think, if you have any ideas on how to improve some of my work please feel free to drop me a message on the forum, I'm always appreciative of constructive comments and if you are looking for some help with any of your project please feel free to ask me once again in the forum, i'm always happy to help out anyone i can.

Take care and hope to see you on the forum.
