Modern

I was finally able to convince the Lord of Lords Lutheran Church to use a WordPress system, mostly so that they could make their own edits without compiling a list and sending it to me once a year. Since their old design relied on basic PHP and mostly static HTML, I decided to make an entirely new design, rather than porting the old one to WordPress.

This design still features blue, as it is the only color in their “color scheme” (if you can call it that) with a splash of orange for contrast. The navigation features drop-down menus, and nearly everything is configurable, including the main menu and all of the content within the footer. Additionally, the home page and search page both utilize WordPress’ built-in widget system, thus enabling the church to customize those pages freely as well without editing the template.

Pet Central

For this project I worked with a web development company called Truespire; Pet Central approached Truespire to have a new website created. I was given a color scheme to match, as well as the basic wireframes that Truespire had created. Pet Central wanted to emphasize their grooming and boarding services, as well as take online reservations and have photo galleries showcasing their work.

Store Template 01

Ryan — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 07:00:53 +0000

I made this for a school project; we needed to create a database-driven site using PHP and MySQL, so I decided to build an online store. I built a basic shopping cart and simple checkout functionality. Browsing and searching were both fully-featured, although my test inventory was limited to about 50 movies.

The design is based off my recent Blog Template 02.

Radio Station 02

A redesign of KTED – Casper’s Pure Rock – 100.5 FM, as the current site is atrocious. I designed the site keeping in mind that it could be built on WordPress (or any other blog CMS), as well as some sort of Radio Station CMS.

I have also created a monotone (gray-scale) version of this design, although I personally prefer this colored version over it.

Green Ryno

This was one of my favorites designs for Ryno Studios, for several reasons. I really liked the header design, but I think it would fit better with a business oriented layout, rather than a portfolio layout. I was also very pleased with the color scheme, especially the bright green color.

This was a design created for a contest on 99designs; my design did not win, but I was very pleased with the end result. During the content, the design went through over a dozen revisions, but nearly all of them were minor changes from the previous, as the client was very happy with the design overall and just wanted to see some minor tweaks for comparison.

This was a design created for a contest on 99designs; my design did not win in this competition, but the client was still impressed with the design. I was particularly proud of the header, which I eventually adapted for my own site (Ryno Studios). The style of the section headers also became somewhat common in my later designs, although mostly in blue.

Generic Template 02

I figured it was time to take a break from blog designs, but I haven’t had much down time lately. So I decided to turn my recent Blog Template 02 into a business template.

I think it turned out very well. I still love the color scheme, and I am happy with the overall layout. The navigation was a little different than my recent stuff, but it seems to fit very well. I might offer this in other color schemes if any one is interested.

Blog Template 02 Dark

This is a variation of my Blog Template 02. I am simply showing that it is possible to have this design in many color variations.

Blog Template 02

Ryan — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 07:00:06 +0000

I came up with the design for this last night. I basically wanted to combine various elements of some of my recent designs into a Blog template. While there are some reused parts, most of the design still had to be completely remade so that everything would fit together well.

I kept the footer from one of my other designs, mostly because I still don’t know what content should go there. I was not happy with the footer in my previous Blog template, but I might replace the one shown now in the future if I ever have a good idea of what to put there instead.

I like the color scheme in this one a lot. I love light designs, as well as blue, so this worked out pretty well. I also like the contrast of the sidebar, which is probably what I spent the most time on.
