I have been working with the wonderful people at EQUI-KIDS Therapeutic Riding Program in Virginia Beach since 2005. I have to start off by saying that I love these people and that they have become my dear friends. Over the past few years they have been running a capital campaign and working very hard to raise $5.3 million for a new riding facility. They just moved into it this summer and let me just say as someone who also did a big move this summer… mine was NOTHING compared to moving a 20 year riding facility! Reading their Facebook statuses during the move was hilarious! They are having their open house on September 12. I decided it would be a good time to design a new website to go along with their new home. I love you guys! Visit: www.equikids.org

I was recently contacted by the great people from the Therapeutic Riding Association of Virginia and asked to redesign their website. I was oh… thrilled to say the least. I love working with great people who, like me, are passionate about what they do. When I was working on the site  I was constantly welling up with emotion looking through all the photos. Take a look and you’ll see why. These people are wonderful. Visit: www.travinc.org

Over a year ago the good people at the SPCA Monteregie saw photos of one of their adopted pups on my blog and left a kind comment for me. This opened up the door to new friendships and a new website donation. 

Since then, I have been wanting to redesign the site but haven’t had the time. Websites need constant updating and should really be redesigned every 2 years, so when you offer to donate something like a website, it is on-going. So even if it is a gift, as a designer I always have to put my best forward because my name is on it. I can’t throw something together with a ‘anything-is-better-than-nothing’ approach.

So I am soft-launching the new SPCA Monteregie website. Still some IE6 bugs to work out.

On behalf of web developers everywhere, if you are still using Internet Explorer 6, I beg you to upgrade to IE7 or IE8. The hacks necessary to keep a site working in the old IE6 are hell. LOL. Please upgrade!
