Who am I?
I'm Steve McKinney (if it wasn't made clear above). I live in Manchester and I'm a web designer with a passion that has spanned around 9 years; from a hobby, to today as my profession. As you can imagine, I've learnt quite a lot over those years. I create websites starting from rough sketches, to get ideas out and plan how the content will go, to finishing at the final product. I have learnt from many different things, picked up a lot of habits (standards, accessibility, relevant content, etc). Which have helped me become better, I'm constantly learning and improving.
What do I do?
Maybe you're more interested in what skills I have:
- HTML
- For content. Using the newest elements for their intended purposes.
- CSS
- Presentation, using graceful degradation to make sure everyone gets the experience their browser is capable of.
- JavaScript/jQuery
- Behaviour, for the little things that make the website better.
- Photoshop
- For adding greater detail and finalising the design of the website.
- ExpressionEngine
- My favourite CMS. Highly flexible and easy to use.
