Since I'm looking to make some cash with my website designing and programming skills over the next few months of summer, I decided that I could start by spreading the word on TGC that I'm available for hire if anyone needs certain work done.
But, I didn't want to make a random post, blatantly advertising myself, as if I had no job and wanted to steal your money.
To develop a sort of 'trust' with you guys on TGC, I'm going to show you what I have done, see who posts the best website proposal, and do the entire website for free. This way, I can show you what I can do, and that I'm not here to steal your money.
All I ask of you is that if you need a website done, you simply post it here or post that you've e-mailed me about it (rpgmakerx2_AT_hotmail_DOT_com). Look to the bottom of this post to see what you should include in your post asking for the website.
I'll show you guys the work I've done and tell you what I'm capable of,
then I'll pick the website that seems like it will have the most purpose or value.
For example, if you just had this brilliant idea for a new blockbuster game that your going to code because you just bought DarkBasic, and you need a website for it quick... then, don't
bother posting.
But, if you have a good amount of work to show on a certain project (does not necessarily have to be a game, and does not necessarily have to be something programmed), and you are interested in having a website built for it, then by all means- post away! It could even be your game making 'company' or group, if you really have something to show for them.
To give a layout of all of my skills, I'll just list them all and give examples of what I can do with them. This way, you can choose to include certain aspects or features in the website you'd like me to build for you:
Photoshop/Flash - I will design the entire website in Photoshop and/or Flash, including Logo and etc.
HTML/CSS - Then, I will use HTML and CSS to cut up the design into an internet-friendly template that can be easily modified and used.
PHP/MySQL - PHP and MySQl can be used to program a user-account system, photo-uploaders, a custom forum or message board system, anything of the sort that requires storing and retrieving information in a database. So this can be used to create an administrator panel, and from there you'll be able to manage and modify all of the content of your website. This is what they call a CMS, or content management system
Javascript/Flash/AS3 - so now that your website is fully functional, I can add handy accessories like a dropdown menu, and other fancy things like that with Javascript. If you want a custom video or music streamer/player, I can easily create this with Flash and Flash Actionscript 3.0
Here's my website, which you can look to for a quick example of my work...
XenMedia
It was designed in Photoshop and then cut up into a HTML/CSS template, where then I made it functional with PHP and MySQL to create a MySQL database-based content management system (aka CMS) and used a javascript based menu.
To be honest, I'm completely redoing the website. It's finished, and almost ready to be uploaded, but for an example of my work, you can still look there.
View the
Portfolio Page for other examples of my work.
So, there you have it. If you want a website built for anything, please post here.
Post all the features you want, what you want it to look like, color schemes, when you want it done by, and other things like that. I'll pick the one that looks most promising to have real purpose, and it will begin.
Good luck, and thanks for your time,
Xenocythe
