Featured Site – Texas Sugar
Cookies! I do love cookies. Elizabeth at Texas Sugar bakes up some great ones, which you can order as a gift, to send to hard-working college students, or just send to treat yourself. She had put together a web site using a do-it-yourself program and had a logo created from clip art, but it wasn’t ...

Featured Site – DAS Consulting

As her clients are mostly corporate, she needed her site to look very clean and professional—but not TOO boring.

New(ish) Sites
I am bound and determined to get this updated with all of my latest projects – some of these are a few months old, but I don’t want to neglect anyone.

Gwendolyn Zepeda
http://gwendolynzepeda.com

With her previous site, the blog was at a separate location with a different design, so we brought it all together into one site to make it all more cohesive and easier for her to manage.
