Name Brand Wigs is an example of a retail site seeking a fresh design and new look for their internet sales division and that's exactly what Danner Design was able to provide for them.

An example of a service oriented company would be Higher Level Services, a professional cleaning company based in Ohio that guarantees their customers with 100% satisfaction.

In 2011, I designed the Crusader Media website and facilitated it's corresponding workshop throughout the academic year. This was a student ran communication website built for Evangel University. CrusaderMedia.com won first place in the Missouri Broadcast Education Association (MBEA) network throughout the state in 2011.

The Lance was developed to archive and record articles to be used as portfolio materials for upcoming journalists. This website was built and orchestrated on the WordPress framework.

Few words about me

Hi! My name is Michael Danner and I am an Evangel University student located here in Springfield MO. I have been involved in web design for a few years now and am recognized by the MBEA (Missouri Broadcast Education Association) as a first place web designer throughout the state of Missouri. Web design has been a big part of who I am not only in participating in its construction, but also by being engulfed in the digital realm that we now reside in as a society.

What I do

Although my skill set is very diverse, a more specific look at what I am able to do is as follows:

HTML
CSS
Hosting Configuration
Email Setup

Content Management Systems
Dreamweaver
Photoshop
Fireworks

Why I do

So why web design? When I came to Evangel University in the fall of 2009, the hardest decision I had to make wasn't where I was going to live or who I'd even like to date, but instead it was my bright ambitious nature that said 'What in the world am I going to dedicate 4 years to learning and what will I have to show for it in ten?

The question plagued my mind for many months to come, but in the end I asked myself 'What's the dream?' And through much deliberation and heartache (which is still progressing even to this day), I have discovered what that dream is. The dream isn't to make money, it's to give money. The dream isn't to create for myself, but to create for others what they cannot for themselves.

No matter the industry you are involved in, no matter what skills you have trained and disciplined yourself to obtain, everyone, and I do mean everyone communicates. You have a dream, but what good is that dream if it sits on a shelf by itself? I am not the dreamer, you are. I simply share the dream with the world around you and the most effective way to share that dream in 2009 when I began, was the web.

So go ahead, Dream On.

Thoughts:

On this job I learned a valuable lesson in content migration and domain name retrieval. The company's website was being hosted through Sam's Club (the retail sister company to Wal-Mart), and was on an extremely unique CMS (content management system). When I constructed my side of things, I chose to use raw elements such as HTML, PHP, JavaScript, CSS etc. which wasn't a problem, but transferring the domain name over to DannerDesign.com was difficult because of the way Sam's Club's services were set up. The process is still being completed, and if I were to have known this before hand I would have arranged for the domain name to being taken care of at an earlier stage in the project.

Lesson Learned: Understand your current host before beginning construction.

Today I learned a great lesson about life. If you want something done right, you must either be willing to learn how to do it well by yourself, or know someone who already does and learn from them.

I've always been a huge proponent of delegating, but not to be too cliche' from many movies I've seen, but "Good help is so hard to find these days." Life keeps spinning people past us everyday, thousands through the streets and hundreds at the mall. And if you are so fortunate enough to come across someone who genuinely possesses talent and the discipline to apply that talent then, my advice to you, grab that person before someone else does.

Treat them right, never take advantage of them, pay them more than they are worth and always, always, always remember these people are not a dime a dozen, but the diamond in the rough. (again cliche' I know, I'm full of 'em today).

Good hunting, and good luck.
