WHO, WHAT AND WHY

About

Craig

I am a front-end engineer. As such, my mission in life is to build Web pages whose component layers are cleanly separated from one another, those three layers being: presentation (CSS), behavior (JavaScript) and structure (HTML). In addition to my client-side expertise, I'm no stranger to the server-side of things (e.g., PHP and Apache, .NET and IIS). And to make things completely confusing, I'm also an accomplished graphic designer, vector illustrator and copywriter.

About this site

This website was hand-coded in Strict XHTML with CSS used for positioning and presentation. PHP is used to render menu items according to context and MySQL is used to store and display the illustration galleries.

About the illustrations

My showcase presents vector illustrations commissioned by PressTime Magazine (the trade publication of the Newspaper Assocation of America). You can also peak peek* into my archives to see less fresh (but still impressive) graphic work.
