My name is

CONNOR WHITE

Dynamic Web Designer. Professional Artist. Driven Character

I am a Web Designer from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I obtained two Bachelor of Fine Art degrees from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, one in Drawing and the other in Printmaking. To follow the future of creativity and design to a digital platform, I went to Pittsburgh Technical College to obtain an Associate in Science Degree in Multimedia Technologies with a concentration in Web Design and Development. With these tools under my belt, I am able to create progressive and beautiful websites.

I work heavily in HTML5 and CSS3 to create graphically and visually strong websites that engage users and clients. With my extensive background in traditional design and art, I place a great deal of importance on the process of design and working towards the aesthetic perfect for each project. I use other languages such as JavaScript to add interactivity to my designs to pull the user into the experience. Whether it is to be viewed in a gallery or on a device screen, creativity has no bounds when I design, and the web is the perfect canvas on which to demonstrate my abilities.

Highlights

  • Custom user interface makes the creation of product to checkout seamless. All screen layouts were carefully designed for smart phones so that all available choices fit on one screen in both landscape and portrait orientations.
  • As the user selects items, the interface displays custom product images, painstakingly crafted to show the user's choices wrapped for shipment. That allows the user to clearly visualize what they have added to their cart.
  • All the user’s choices are stored in localStorage variables using JavaScript. So when a user makes changes in their cart, regardless of where they are in the process, the changes are made in real time and recalled on later pages.

Highlights

  • All product information and choices the user makes within the site are stored through MySQL and XML. The data is then retrieved using hand-coded PHP and displayed on web pages.
  • A fictitious company was devised for this project, and a brand invented to suit it. An entire product line was invented, and packaging was designed to be absolutely faithful to the company's brand. Every product has a unique label "flavor" and coloration to distinguish each product upon quick glance.
  • A content management system was crafted using PHP to allow administrators to add or delete products from the catalog. Feel free to test this using the username: boss and password: boss

Highlights

  • WordPress was used so that the client would be able to easily update and post content.
  • A custom WordPress theme was created to control the layout and styling of the site. The theme adds to the appetizing and inviting feel the client strived for by using patterns and colors related to the topic.
  • A registration and account management system were put in place so the community can interact and leave comments/impressions for the reviews in the website. The admin then has privleges to choose what does and does not get displayed on the site.
