My name is Alan and I

rock out svelte web sites.

I specialize in creating rich hand-coded web sites with W3C validated mark-up using XHTML, CSS, PHP, and JavaScript. Every site I develop is coded to be user friendly and I strive to make every site I code cross-browser compatible so you can rest assured that your message is reaching its targeted audience.

My life/love/home is in the Midwest with my wife and an evil feline. When not trying to avoid death at the hands of a disturbed cat, you can usually find me playing video games or reading my weekly comic book pulls with a hot cup of coffee.

Spawn Kill Review System Plugin

Client: Spawn Kill

Services: Web Development (WordPress)

Spawn Kill came to me for a plugin to manage their game reviews. I created a WordPress plugin with a complete admin panel to track the reviews and display them in a sortable table. I coded it so that they didn't have to edit their template at all; just plug and play.

Forwards Compatible

Client: Forwards Compatible

Services: Web Development (WordPress)

Forwards Compatible came to fruition through collaboration with Lou Lantos. Lou took on the graphic design tasks, and I helped with consultation and PHP backend coding using the WordPress blogging platform.

Jewell Central

Client: William Jewell College

Services: Web Development, Web Design

I had to redesign the entire intranet site for my position at William Jewell College. I had to redesign many forms, build PHP and MySQL applications from scratch, and code a light weight CMS system for staff updates. I did all of the system administration duties for this project using the LAMP platform.

MySpace Profile (Inactive)

Client: Personal

Services: Graphic Design, Web Design

This is my personal MySpace layout. I got the idea from looking through MySpace band pages; hence the header section. I also wanted to differentiate myself from the norm so I went full DIV overlay and made the profile my own.

Featured Graphics 2008

Services: Graphic Design

This is just a sample of my graphic design work from 2008. It includes a video game skin I created for the social game Second Life, a shirt design I created for the band Frailty of the Flesh, and some badges for an online gaming community All is Brawl.

bluerobbiewin was my personal blog for two years. It revolved around my love of horror movies and survival horror video games. Thus the bloody zombie layout was born.
