A few weeks ago I pulled an all-nighter designing a blog for KatrinaFoley.com.  A blog was definately needed for this site as the site is updated on a regular basis with information that is vital to community members.  The blog keeps the information in a very organized format and proves to be a much quicker & cleaner way to get the information to the public.  Here is a preview of the blog.

This top of the line interactive news blog has the following advanced features:  news-magazine style layout, banner advertising, Flickr (photo) display integration, social networking integration.  Visit Katrina Foley’s news blog.

I’ve just finished the finishing touches on this blog and I’m so pleased with how it turned out.  The client was wanting a blog that would be easy to navigate but at the same time host a few advanced features like multiple videos on the main page, ad management, and community interactivity.    This blog is a bit more advanced than I usually do for clients but I had so much fun working on it!  Honestly I would love to have more clients that want a blog that has a few of the more intensive features but at the same time I have an appreciation for the simpler style blogs.

If you are ever in the area of Mount Ayr, Iowa…be sure to stop in the Princess Theater for some entertainment.  Until then, have a peek at the site and let them know what you think of it!
Live Site

This news blog was designed for a client that already had an existing website which I had designed.  The goal was to create a simple & clean blog that reflected the look & feel of the website.

Live Blog

I was presented with the task of creating a blog that would coordinate with this inn’s current website.  I was granted permission to use images and graphics from the website so there was not really much designing that I needed to do which made this job a quick one.  This site proves that not all jobs have to be large, time consuming and expensive…yet the result can have the look of all 3!

This blog was designed by me under the employment of TotalWebDesigner.com.  I was and currently am the Head Designer there.  Please note that this site/blog is no longer maintained by me so please refer to the image above as the best representation of my work rather than the actual live site.
