Joe Sharp Designs
Welcome to JoeSharpDesigns.com
Thank you for visiting! This is my old webpage, the first I built with code. All of the text, images, programming, and main mechanics of the site are working, but I won't be adding new things here. At this point it is available for exploration and nostalgia.
Although the "For Sale" section was never completed, my portfolio section was built so you can check out the art that I was going to try to sell.
You might find it interesting to know that I optimized my website for iPads. They were relatively new, I was creating artwork on them anyway, and the site did look really nice on it. It used freely available Web APIs, basically bits of programming, to allow you to rotate, swipe, scroll, and zoom. (Early ways of doing things that are easy today.) I felt like I had accomplished something since the site worked like a native iPad app did at the time.
