This is the 3rd incarnation of the site I first taught myself html with. This version runs on Links 2.0 from Gossamer-Threads, a cgi-perl program for creating static directory pages through a database.

The site itself is a directory of all things Regency - a period of English history of interest to many Romance readers and writers, as well as living history practitioners.

A Regency Bookstall is an outgrowth of A Regency Repository. It runs on a highly-modified version of DBMan, also by Gossamer-Threads.

My proudest achievement on this site is the wishlist feature - not only allowing a dynamic wishlist for the member, but also allowing her to create a static page she can share with those interested in buying her books.

This site - perhaps four years old now - is still functioning well for SWAGroup, an internationally recognized architect firm. This was one of the biggest projects WhyByte did.

Because of the very particular visual design requirements for this client, we built it entirely in Flash. I made it layered and modular, so that their in-house staff can easily make changes and add new projects without having to tangle with a single overwhelming file.

This is the second generation site for Stokes Restaurant in Monterey.

My role on this one, besides doing some updating and modifying in Dreamweaver, was the construction of the Flash splash page-slideshow. Hard to go wrong with such luscious photos.

I am heavily involved with an online digital scrapbooking community. So when a blogging-group started up, I decided that was my cue to take up blogging.

My "theme" here is based on one of Blogger's standards, but I got my first strong taste of CSS by modifying it. The red-and-gold background was an easy change. Moving the narrow column from left to right, and tinkering with text and paragraph attributes, has made me a CSS fan. This is fun stuff!

The pink image here is one of three layouts that cycle through using a modified javascript I picked up from an eBay book.
