Photography lets me set up a graphics collection from travel pictures.

Pictures can get extra touch-ups to make them more appealing.

I had fun making the Ford / Star Wars graphic.

About

While I have done well in computer setup, repair & maintenance through the years, I enjoy using my creative talents to compliment my technical skills. This reflects my balanced left/right brain approach to life.

I kept Dept. of Defense computers & local area networks (LANs) operational for 21 yrs., and taught myself web design (HTML, CSS & some JavaScript). I was awarded for 2 intranet websites I hand-coded & maintained.

I'm interested in e-commerce solutions. I would like to have hands-on experience from the point of sale registers or sales computers to the database that the website pulls the data from.
Clearly, there is a need for this in the commercial business sector.
I could set up smaller vendors with XML based solutions with web pages pulling the product data from XML files.

My graphic design skills can help small businesses set up their Web presence. I'm very adept at digital photography & graphics edits by now using Adobe Photo Shop and Illustrator or GIMP.
