eBid Auctions

eBid Auctions is an website that I made during my internship at Landscape Forms for internal company auctions. This website uses ASP.NET and SQL Server with the jQuery User Interface to create an easy-to-use rich web application for employees to bid on auction items.  Fancy Box was also employed for image pop-ups and item descriptions.

Unfortunately I cannot link you to the website since it is internal, however I have uploaded some screen shots for your viewing pleasure.  Enjoy!

Social Networking Icons

Recently, I was looking for some ideas to change the Connect section at the bottom of my site. In my search, I came across a set of free social networking icons created by Komodo Media. This package includes icons for over 40 social networking sites and more in both 16×16 and 32×32 pixel sizes. To see an example, please look at the Connect section in the footer of my website, or visit the download link below.

I think these icons are a great free resource for developers. If you would like to download them, please visit the following link and download the file from Komodo Media. Enjoy!

It’s A New Year

Hello Everyone,

I would first like to apologize for not updating my site in a while. I’ve been extremely busy with the holidays and work and I just haven’t had the time! I finally finished my undergraduate program at Western Michigan University and I am now the proud owner of a BBA in Electronic Business Design! It feels incredible to be graduated from college and to be a part of the professional work force.

Speaking of which, I have been busy developing a website for the company where I am interning, Landscape Forms. This website is going to be the home for our new electronic auction system. Currently these auctions are all done via paper and pencil, and my job is to give them a more eBay like feel. I have been developing this website using ASP.NET and SQL Server, and it has been exciting learning new interactions between things such as ASP.NET and jQuery along the way. I would love to show you this website, but it is internal only. Sorry!

I hope that everyone reading this had a wonderful holiday season, and I’d like to remind you that Fro Designs is always happy to answer your web design and development needs. Enjoy the new year!

Abstract Vector Art

This is a tutorial that I found while browsing the popular web design blog called Web Designer Wall. It teaches you how to use Adobe Illustrator to make some very neat abstract art by simply drawing some shapes and using the Twirl and Warp tools to distort them.

Here is a link to the tutorial: Illustrator: Abstract Vector Art

And here are some of the results that I had from this tutorial:

I have had a lot of fun with this tutorial, and I hope you will as well!
