Web Design... What does this really mean? In this online age, your web presence is one of the most important aspects of your business. The internet is usually the first place potential customers go to find businesses or organizations like yours and the design and layout of your website is the first impression that you get to make. Your challenge, when looking for someone create a new website - or to revamp the dated look and feel of your existing website - is to find someone who can fit a solution to your actual needs. When you're ready to choose a web developer, one of the first things you should check are credentials - how qualified and professional is your prospect?
Many web site designers come from graphics design backgrounds with little or no technical training. Jon Holmquist - MBA/BS C.I.S - is an independent web developer with years of technical, artistic and business education, training and experience. He's an accomplished programmer with decades of experience and he can provide many automated solutions for your website to make it as dynamic, flexible, and maintenance free as possible. He also has extensive expertise in back-end database design and provides an expert vision to potentially enhance your business model in the virtual world of "webspace".

Programming
We also provide custom programming for an existing or new website, or stand-alone web applications. This includes HTML/CSS, JavaScript, JQuery, AJAX, PHP scripting, PDF generation, MySQL database design, site search engine, content management systems (CMS), data analysis, and much much more. Jon Holmquist is an independent programmer with years of experience with many types of application domains. He prefers to use "open source" solutions that don't obligate you to pay large application licensing fees.
Web Developer Tools
Today's websites are much more than just static pages containing brochure-like information. Technology has advanced so that users expect more interactivity and power. So, beyond handling complete website projects, we also have expertise in back-end tools useful to other website developers themselves. We build custom shopping carts and we're continually perfecting our suite of data entry program tools. These can be used to create custom turn-key data entry programs for editing the contents of any database table. These are perfect for providing the backbone of a Content Management System. We're also fluent in the use of AJAX, another tool that Developers can use to enhance their websites and we design effective database layouts.
Panorama Production
We specialize in panorama production - the seamless "stitching" of series of overlapping images together - perfect for header images like the ones above. This process is as much of an art as it is a technology. There are now several web based techniques for experiencing panorama navigable, immersive "viewers". Besides being able to create panoramas from your images, we have an impressive collection of panoramas to use for our own website development projects. Check out these panorama examples.
Stock Photography
Jon Holmquist is also an accomplished stock photographer with an extensive collection of tens of thousands of stock images and panoramas. His collection specializes in Travel, Nature and People from the Pacific Northwest and Southwest United States, National parks, and dozens of countries from all over the world. Web Designers are in constant search for photos that captures a mood for the perfect "look and feel" of their website.
