download-ringtone-now.com

this was a small project the boss asked me to do in early 2007. i designed the upper portion in illustrator and then inserted it into a css/html designed page. (site taken offline by client)

about these sites: these are web sites i worked on as part of a team during my employment with hitchfinder.com, an auto industry e-commerce company in arlington, tx.

this was a great job where i got to hone my coding (css and html) skills and design skills 8 hours a day all week.

note: i have shown what i consider to be the sites representative of what the company as a whole did. the team i worked with designed the full look of the sites, dealt with all the data, css, html, ftp issues and lots more. we had a member of the team that specializes in php that developed the interaction with the database while i mostly interacted with the css, html and graphics end.

note: the last site here was a pet project that my boss had me develop for cellphone ringtones.

hitchfinder stores logo

click to enlarge

this is a new logo i created for hitchfinder.com to promote an email campaign. the concept was to create an umbrella organization for a number of their web sites as a branded entity. that way we could send customers to all of the stores from one place, such as email or from a coupon on another web site. the name, design and concept was all mine.

the logo was very well liked, but has been retired because the company was sold a few years back.
