Dust Design Website




Software: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Bridge, Flash, Indesign, Dreamweaver, Audition, HTML, XML, CSS, PHP, Javascript, Actionscript.

My new portfolio website. Please click on the title to view my web design, animations, illustrations, photography and graphic design, thank you.

Initial design done using Illustrator and Photoshop and then imported into Dreamweaver. As with all my websites, the HTML and CSS are coded from scratch, no templates are used. Javascript was then added to make each page scroll smoothly to each section of the site.

The site also includes a PHP controlled contact form, with Javascript validation to cut out spammers.

Cross browser compatibility checks were done to render in all major browsers including IE 6 to IE 9 (Internet Explorer), Safari, Firefox and Google Chrome, and is fully W3C standards compliant.

A sitemap was created in XML format and submitted to Google, Bing,. Ask and Yahoo for search engine optimisation.


Kleen It All Website


Software: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Flash, Dreamweaver, Audition.
This Website was created for a local cleaning company. Kleen It All's main requirements were the website had to be original, eye-catching and memorable to the user.
The main site is completely animated using Flash together with a swfObject controlled HTML/CSS backup site for visitors who do not have Flash or Javascript enabled. A PHP controlled contact form was also used complete with form validation.
The main character in the animation is a caricature of Kleen It All's CEO Steven West.

Crumbs Cafe and Catering Service


Adobe Illustrator, Indesign, Flash, Dreamweaver. HTML, CSS, Javascript, swfObject, XML.

Crumbs Cafe (previously Kirsty's) was rebranded as of 22nd March 2010.

The Website was built and animated in Flash, allowing me to create smoother page transitions and navigation.

Javascript was used to switch from the front end Flash site, to a backup HTML site that was created using Css to cater for machines that don't have Flash Player installed. (this can be viewed by switching your "enable Javascript" option to "disable" in Internet Settings in Internet Explorer). This together with submitting XML and HTML Sitemaps enhanced Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) , making the site more user friendly.

A link to the Flash Player Download is also included.

The site was also tested for cross browser compatibility, on major web browsers including IE 5.5, IE6, IE8, (Internet Explorer) Safari, Opera, Firefox and Google Chrome.

Kirsty's Cafe and Catering Services

This is a website I created for a local Cafe and Catering Business.

Please Click on Title or visit http://www.yorkshirecaterer.co.uk/ to view live.


The initial design was created in Adobe Illustrator.
The complete Website was then built and animated in Flash, allowing me to create smoother page transitions and navigation.
As Flash content isn't as search engine friendly as HTML, a backup HTML basic site was created using Adobe Dreamweaver, this also allows users to view the Website if their machine doesn't have Flash Player installed. (this can be viewed by switching your "enable Javascript" option to "disable" in Internet Settings in Internet Explorer). a link to the Flash Player Download is also included.
