The plan of action

Lets explore

Observe, explore and identify the actual requirements, only then will we start to plan. We're talking about the start of something special.

Prototype

With all the information gathered and a clear idea of the design. Shapes are tweaked, content is looked upon and colours are painted.

Is it perfect?

The final step, one last look at our creation to ensure everything works perfectly while sipping on champagne. Your choice.

Who is this Guy?

David Pottrell has over five years of self-taught industry experience as well as two years of university experience.

Over that time he has fined tuned his skills to develop websites for many individual clients as well as small businesses such as Dynamic Mouldings.

Right, that’s enough of talking about myself in third person for now.

Through the years leading up to becoming a freelance web designer I focused on my own personal website which hosted blogs, comics and templates, you name it!

At the moment I live in Southampton where I'm studying Web Design and Internet Technology at university on a four year course with my wonderful fiancée, Leanne.

I'm a keen user of Photoshop CS5 and use it whenever I have the chance for my projects. When I'm not in front of the computer designing, you'll find me in front of my computer playing with photos I've taken with my DSLR camera in Photoshop or playing online games. On the off chance I'm not designing a website/illustration/gaming I'll most likely be relaxing with Leanne or out somewhere with the camera.
