I am sorry about the title – please blame Steve’s weird sense of humour!

I don’t often talk about the more geeky side of me, but when I decided to escape from the office 9-5 environment I didn’t want to escape from web development entirely. I still love designing, developing and maintaining websites, and I do spend a surprising amount of time doing just that.

But now instead of being for the benefit of a big company, I work for small groups or individuals. I am not looking to make huge profits, much to Steve’s distress, but I would rather work with charities, non-profits or individuals wanting to make their own dreams come true. Sometimes I even earn a few pennies!

I have been pretty busy lately with a number of different projects, but I think my favourite of them is the website that has just been launched today for the Shetland Sheep Breeders of Ontario. Of course I am a member as well as web-master, and somehow at the last meeting found myself becoming the treasurer!

I recently allowed myself some time to work on our business site, after all it won’t do for the website of a web developer to be shabby looking! I got started with the design process but couldn’t choose a favourite. So I thought why not do my favourite three, that provides more examples of my designs and gives me a chance to write some fun scripts.

I would love to know what you think about them. Which is your favourite? Did you find the buttons on SiDeWays to let you change the theme?

I love to know what you think so please rate my post or leave me a comment. If you really liked this post maybe you would consider sharing it. Thank you.

  2. I like the fancy script with the brown layout…
    I’d like to chat with you about a website for someone… maybe on the 24th ?

  4. I like all of them but I think I like the fancy one best – that said, I would rather see the subtitle in a regular font (maybe what the rest of the text is in) rather than using the same font as the title.
    I really like the third option as well.
    You are the best webmaster!

  5. I like the first one best (Brown). It’s cleaner and I found it easier to read. The font seemed to suit the company name best. MHO.
