Anthony, owner of a full service lawn care company in Charlotte, required a simple website to serve as an information center for new clients.

The challenge was to create a no-frills design, on a tight budget, to provide information about the services they offer. This was accomplished by creating a green schemed framework to contain the verbiage Anthony provided. The design was created to dynamically resize, depending on the users settings and window size. Anthony also wanted the local weather to appear, which was accomplished by using a script from weather.com. An image gallery was also added, using stock photography, to provide examples of what they can provide for clients.

This small startup needed a website to sell their innovative product online. This was the very first major website I had solely created and maintained for 2 years. The shopping system was implemented using Bank of America's product database and merchant services. It was a challenge to use the JavaScript based cart functions as my first website project.

As the past 6 years passed, I've since moved on and the company was sold. Their current website is now in the hands of the new owners, and while they still maintain a live site, the original design is long gone and only viewable here.
