Web Design
Looking for a standards-compliant, easy-to-use website that will look good not just now, but later as well? I design websites using standards-compliant XHTML and CSS, and can integrate sound, video, and flash elements into the design as well. I am also currently beginning to use PHP, Dreamweaver, Drupal, and MySQL. If you are interested in having me design a website for you, please send me an email at amandaATamandano2.com (be sure to replace AT with @) and I will get back to you within three days.

Pennant Fund Web Site
Date: November/December 2010
Client: Pennant Fund (while employed by The Wall Street Transcript)
This website was created for Pennant Hedge Fund while I was working at The Wall Street Transcript. I designed and hand coded the site to tell potential investors more about the hedge fund. Due to various laws, hedge funds cannot advertise to the public, therefore, access past the front page of the site is limited to potential investors.
Absnowlute Mountain Resort Web Site
Date: April/May 2009
Client: MM465 Web Design Project

ACBU Official Web Site
Date: July/August 2008
Client: Activities Council of Bradley University
This was the website redesign for Bradley's Activities Council for Fall 2008 to promote on-campus entertainment. The navigation showing the different areas of the website sticking out of the red, circular "ACBU" logo was made in Adobe Flash. The rest of the website was made using standards compliant HTML and CSS, and Abode Photoshop was used for photo editing and resizing. Click on the image below to view the website.
Paramodal Technologies Web Site
Date: April 2008
Client: MM365 Web Design Project
This was made in my first Web Design class for a ficticious company called Paramodal Technologies. The assignment was to come up with products for transportation that do not yet exist. I chose to keep mine as realistic as possible and used solar cars for my products. The site was built using standards compliant CSS, HTML, and JavaScript forms.

CSS Zen Garden Re-Design
Date: February 2008
Client: MM365 Web Design Project
This webpage was an assignment for my webdesign class in February 2008. For the assignment, we had to make a design for the CSS Zen Garden which uses the same HTML document to create many different designs using CSS rules. Using the HTML, we had to style it to look like one of our favorite websites using only CSS (we could not change the regular HTML that we were given). For my design I chose to style it like TreeHugger.com. I redesigned the photos from their website to say "CSS Zen Garden" and used the same fonts and text sizes.

ACBU Official Web Site Spring Semester 2008
Date: January 2008
Client: Activities Council of Bradley University
This website was a redesign I did for Bradley University's Activities Council. It is completely standards compliant and was coded with XHTML and CSS. For this look, I wanted to stick with Bradley's colors of red and white, and I wanted it to have a clean and simple look that was very modern would look appealing to students. To achieve this, I decided to use clusters of circles for the decoration of the site since ACBU's logo is shaped in a circle. To let users know what page they were on, I made the photos on the left of each page which would tell users where they were at. To view the full site, click on the screenshot below.
Bradley University Senate Web Site
Date: August 2007
Client: Bradley University Senate
This website was made for Bradley University's Student Senate in the summer of 2007 and was build entirely in Flash. I used Bradley's official colors, red and white, as well as black. I wanted the site to have a professional sort of feel to it since Senate is seen as a very professional organization, but I also wanted it to be fun for students to look at. To achieve this balance between professional, yet youthful and fun, I made the site kind of dark looking and added a few fun fonts. To view the full site, click on the screenshot below.
Darfur Relief Week
Date: May 2007
Client: Bradley University Darfur Relief Week
In my Flash Authoring class we had to make a full Flash website that integrated video and audio, and that was based on an issue we felt strongly about. At the time, I was just beginning to build a website for Bradley University's Darfur Relief Week and my professor agreed that if I could meet all of the guidelines for the project that I could use it for my final. For the overall design, I decided to use red, black, and white since red and white are Bradley's official colors. The menu to the left of the page is a rolldown menu that has more options when you mouse over them. The page shown here was a standard design for most of the text-intensive pages.
