For those out there that still take the time to read paragraphs
rather than bullet points (and enjoy a little humor)...
What can this David guy do for me? That's the real question you have, right?
Why else would you be reading this? Well, I suppose you could be a celebrity
stalker obsessed with me, but that's highly unlikely (unlikely for two
reasons: 1. I'm fairly certain you're a normal person with only slightly
compulsive behaviors and 2. I'm not really a celebrity *dang it*)
Anyway, back to the real question... "What can I do for you?" I
can design anything from a Pop-Tart box to full featured Flash
website. What I really enjoy doing is redesigning companies'
existing material. The ugly monster of mediocrity seems to have
slipped in the back door with the advent of personal computers.
There are so many bad
designs that were done by people with good intentions. Anyone's
son, daughter, brother, or cousin with a computer has the delusion
that they can "design" the
family company's website and marketing materials in a professional
way. Well, if I may be so bold, let me tell ya, they CAN'T. Just
so you don't think I'm throwing some kind of artist tantrum,
let's ask ourselves a couple of simple questions, ok? Let's say
I own a plunger (which I certainly do and would advise any home
owner to do the same for details we'll not go into at this time)
does that make me a plumber? Umm, no. In case you think I've
pulled a fast one on you,
let's do one more example, shall we? Let's say I open a can of
Chef Boyardee, Spaghetti & Meatballs (I use this example because I
consider myself to be one of the foremost authorities on Chef
Boyardee, it is without question a staple in my lunch time diet).
Anyway, back to opening the can. Alright, I've opened my can,
emptied the contents into a microwave safe container (which is
permanently stained with a strange orange color) and heat for
1.5 minutes. The result, a tasty lunch fit for a king. Now here's
my question... does that
make me a chef? True, I am highly skilled with a microwave, but
ultimately no, I'm not a chef. You see, a professional made the
product, I just consumed it. Don’t misunderstand me, I’m not
suggesting that you eat my design for lunch, although some of
my logos do contain 9 essential vitamins. Think about it, who is better qualified
to "design" something that will represent your company? Someone with over a decade
of professional design experience, plus a life time of God-given
creativity coursing through their veins (I'm talking about myself here just to clarify),
OR your [insert family or friend here] who just bought a computer
and managed to get a bootleg copy of Corel or FrontPage (silly
rabbit, FrontPage is for kids)?
The truth of the matter is that design is about communication
and problem solving. It's not just about arranging pretty pictures.
So, here's the low down... print or internet
design,
I can do it... website, business card, billboard, CD cover,
book cover, magazine ad, brochure, catalog, logo, or Pop-Tart
box, I'm your man.
Sidenote: I normally handle all the web hosting for my clients, but, if you're the type of person that likes to have more control over your website and would like to handle the hosting on your own, here's a great place to find an affordable web host.
