Project Outline
A short summery of my completed domains.

TeamXW.com v8.0
http://www.teamxw.com

Providing a dynamic website for PC gamers to hang out and gather information from game servers, tracking there own skill set as well as others, a place to talk openly, image storage, as well as many other things.

This is my own project, it has been through 8 versions and is expected to go even further. I expect to have the shtml/php hybrid site to be rendered the same in IE as Firefox very soon.

Bill Cobb TCB
http://www.billcobbtcb.com

This page was a flash page designed entirely to promote Bill Cobb, a local elvis impersonator. The links provide you with upcoming shows and information as well as memorabilia. I am still working closely with bill in order to perfect his site.

He expressed a needed color theme as well as not using anything that is copyright protected by Elvis but still giving the presents of Elvis. The site uses flash as its interface and simple text documents so that the clients themselves can add data to the site without knowing anything about flash.

Strackart.com
No longer online. ( http://iamkraze.com/wpg2-2?g2_itemId=292)

This was a personal webpage developed for a local artist and teacher. The client met with me and expressed that she was looking for a simple and effective way to display her paintings and other artwork online for others to look at. She expressed a need to use pastel colors and a very simple theme.

Ninaboo clan
No longer online. (http://iamkraze.com/wpg2-2?g2_itemId=289)

This was a strictly online client. I deal heavily with the online gaming community and this was one of those projects reflecting this. The page was designed to show the current clans roster and its upcoming games and matches.

Coliseum Gaming
No longer online. (http://iamkraze.com/wpg2-2?g2_itemId=280)

This is still a work in progress. This is a local gaming LAN center where the focus is playing games with friends. The client wanted to add news and upcoming events easily to the front page as well as a place to discuss the events and other ideas collectively.

 

Wargames Online
No longer online. (http://iamkraze.com/wpg2-2?g2_itemId=327)

Wargames online was a place for gamers to rent video game servers for there own purposes with there own settings. The site had minimum details and its primary focus was graphical and elaborate in nature. The idea was to attact customers with its pings and uptime. A simple php script was used to update all of the data on the pages.
