I offer a variety of things on this site. More than what you would probably expect. I am a web designer, coder, programmer, and I also have services relating to web hosting and promotion.</p><br /><p>My main purpose for this website, is to give you a list of what services I offer, what skills I possess, and a good variety of ways to contact me to inform me about various types of project information. However after carefull consideration, and quite a bit of research, I decided to make it into much more than that.</p><br /><p>There is something here for everyone, so I would ask everyone to stick around and here what I have to say, you will probably find something you can find useful. First I would like to address any potential clients, if you have anything you need done with a website, please pour over my skills, services, and about me page to find out about me, my business, and about everything I do and believe that has to do with website. All of my beliefs and practices when relating to design/coding/programming/promotion/hosting/other are all listed neatly under there specific areas. Those pages will give you an idea of who you will be hiring, and who will be taking on your projects if you decide to come to me with your project information.</p><br /><p>To potential web designers/developers/programmers, and all the way down to hardcore experts you will find something here that you can use. I have a huge list of links under specific sections leading to huge lists of resources that took me a long time compile, I also have a few special projects in the undertaking to help freelancers be able to find work better. I have full specifications for what I require under the correct sections.</p><br /><p>There is another reason behind this website as well. Something aside from trying to get projects, and somethign aside from helping other developers/programmers/coders. I am wanting to start a new revolution in the field of websites. I want to start spreading the ideals of good web design/coding/programming. Everything from clean, well commented code, all the way down to deep theological misconceptions that plague the world of web sites today. There are many misconceptions, and false rumors, and even some that are true that aren't as big of a deal as percieved. I am here to not only information people of these rumors, but to also try and help everyone get over those minor problems understanding some of the basic concepts, and ideas that a lot of people fight with when first starting, and even some people who have been in this field a long time.</p><br /><p>I would also like to apologize for the length of this homepage, I wanted everyone to see what there was to offer on this site, feel free to look around at your leisure. If you are a potential client, then it would be better to refer to the Advanced Forms page for contacting me about projects, as the communication between me and you will go alot smoother.</p></div><!-- End Main Body of Text --></body></html>[/code]Here is the css code, is there some other ways to clean this up, any suggestions.
