designer, illustrator, animator

he designed a game for the ipad and iphone as well as a bunch of animated shorts that are on his portfolio site. His is another site that has so many little things to click or scroll over that you can probably stay on it for a good 20 minutes watching videos or just plaing with the background animation.

Mike Descola's website

I came upon Mike Descola's website while casually browsing the web.
Its clean, clear, and interactive. He displays his prowess in web design as well as skill in Photoshop. Its an excellent example of a personal portfolio website.

Web project 1

This is the website I plan to fix for the first web design project. http://georgerrmartin.com/
Its George R.R.Martins page and as a best selling author his page should look better then this.


It looks like its out of the 90's and there are so many parts that are never updated or useless.

Paul F. Tompkins

Saw Paul F. Tompkins on HBO so I went to his site. I liked the look of it even though some elements were not functioning. (the porthole portion, and the crawl along the bottom)

From this point on, for some time, my posts will pertain to web design.

Shows how, with only CSS styling, one can change the entire look and feel of a website.
