Web Site Development

I developed my first web sites using Microsoft's Frontpage program. However, I grew frustrated with its then uncontrollable tendency to alter carefully prepared HTML code. So I switched to Macromedia's Dreamweaver, which I use together with a text editor for manual coding.

Graphics

I am responsible for about 90% of the graphics that appear in The Philosophers' Magazine. Here are some examples of my work. I do nearly all my graphics work in Adobe Photoshop. The only exceptions are where I need to produce an animated GIF. I will then use either Macromedia Fireworks or Adobe Image Ready.

Multimedia

For the production of Multimedia content, I use a number of tools, including: Multimedia Builder; Goldwave; Real Audio producer; and the Sony DV suite. You can find examples of my work in Real Audio streaming at TPM Radio (see, for example, Jeff Mason's China Diaries).

DTP

The Philosophers' Magazine is put together using Adobe Pagemaker 6.5 - and this is my desk top publishing package of choice. I also have experience with Microsoft Publisher and Serif Page Plus.

Microsoft Office

I make use of Microsoft Office extensively. I'm quite capable of utilising the advanced functions in Excel and Access. See, for example, this excel file.
