The
first design was very minimal and heavily used "canned"
effects from the graphics program. The bar at the top
was an image, and so if the screen wasn't at 1024px
wide there was a scroll bar at the bottom. Another large
image in the middle of the first page dominated as well
as slowed down page load times. |

The
second version still had the large first page image
but had something a little different at the top. There
were still images (using image hotspots) at the top
of the page but now there were two and they opened and
closed the width of the screen like a slide rule. Text
content has begun to rise. |

The
third redesign came out sporting it's first properly
sized mast head graphic as well as its first page top
company name. The page was now able to be resized from
wide screens down to very small without breaking the
design. An evolutionary leap was made in text content
as editorial skills inproved. Arrangements were made
to create income solely from traffic the site garnered. |

The
forth design relied heavily on CSS and repeated background
graphics to expand and contract on page content seamlessly
for all viewers of the page. The site has been tested
in Internet Explorer as well as Macintosh internet browsers.
Traffic continues to escalate with additional listings
in varied search engines. |

The
fifth and current design spotlights expanded content
and a revised navigational system. Slight tweaks were
done to surround graphics to keep things fresh. |
