Ennis Web Design
Previous Projects
Here is a list of some of the previous and current projects EWD has been involved with. This list is by no means complete, as private sites and those currently in development or discontinued, are not listed.
- Through the Looking Glass: An organization providing support for parents and children with disabilitities.
- Database driven sections of this website can be managed in-house by non-technical staff using custom PHP scripts and MySQL with features that include
surveys, links list, subscriber-only newsletter, opt-in mailing lists, and both public and private discussion forums.
- This site features multiple format choices where appropriate such as HTML, Adobe Acrobat® and plain text formats, which can help with accessibility issues.
- TLG's site is accessible to visitors using speech or braille output, text-only, or older computers.
- Japanese Spaces
- A basic, clean site design with lots of photos with reference numbers for easy purchase over the phone.
- This one is not fancy, but we hear a LOT of compliments about its design.
- GetUp&Golf!
- GetUp&Golf is a website that explores the sport of golf as a way to maintain one's health. Visitors can get general information on the physical and mental benefits of golf, and learn how to get started (or start again) according to your level of experience.
- A subscription area provides access to "Ask the Golf Coach" and "Ask the Golf Doctor" discussion forums moderated by an LPGA golf trainer, and a physician specializing in sports medicine. The moderators can perform their duties from any internet connection.
- Visitors can subscribe online with a secure credit card ordering system.
- International Association of Audio Information Services (IAAIS)
- IAAIS needed an online member database on their website. EWD created a MySQL database of the membership list.
- The member database allows for remote maintenance from a password-protected website. The database administration tools were
designed to be accessible for folks using assistive technology, older computers, or text-only internet access. The tools are
easy to use by anyone with basic computer skills.
- The membership list is now available to the public, and can be searched and filtered from a simple, one-field form.
- Environmental Business Council of Ventura County
- This site provides information and referral for 24 local environmental businesses and the public. It was initiated by the Economic Development Collaborative - Ventura County (EDC-VC), a County of Ventura, California entity. The site is now co-managed by Irion Enterprises and Ennis Web Design.
- Features include a company directory, a résumé submission form and private database of résumés for participating companies, links to member's websites, a password-protected members-only area, and a custom logo.
- Résumés can be submitted by the public, but only the cluster members can read them, protecting submitor's privacy and protecting the cluster's investment in the site, and in the community.
- Sound Chaser: "Everything to Make Your Computer Musical"
- Providing consulting and programming services for new pages and improving the customer experience.
- EWD is assisting Sound Chaser with in-house database queries to get custom reports, and to improve customer service.
- Dave Maize Acoustic Guitars: A custom instrument crafter
- Dave originally called EWD up to make digital recordings of his fine instruments for his website, and ended up building the whole site! It's been a blast! Check his site for photos, specs, prices and of course, high fidelity audio samples of the guitars in 4 different formats including MP3.
- Dave builds his guitars out of reclaimed or sustainably-harvested woods (many SmartWood™ Certified), which make them feel as good as they sound. He has a mill and actually starts with logs!
- Rose Resnick Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired: Education and advocacy for people with disabilities
- The LightHouse site has many features updated in-house via secure PHP scripts and MySQL databases.
- The RRL had an existing site that needed updating by someone who understands web accessiblity. EWD has been providing regular updating services, including their monthly newsletter, their schedule of classes, job announcements and a list of links.
- This site has a password-protected private area for the Board of Directors that includes a threaded discussion forum that is accessible with speech output.
- Irion Enterprises: Asia/North America Trade Relations Consultants, Japanese - English translation services, facilities management, project facilitation
- EWD provided meta indexing and code troubleshooting for this pre-existing site, as well as advice.
- Irion Enterprises has facilitated many projects that EWD has been involved with including Japanese Spaces, Environmental Business Council of Ventura County, & McMullen Japanese Antiques, all listed on this page. Their knowledge of many industries and the players in them make Irion Enterprises a good choice for consulting and facilitating projects.
- This site includes pages in Japanese language, requiring special fonts.
- Ennis Realty & Investment Company: Commercial real estate investment management and sales
- Ennis Realty continues to market commercial property for sale and for lease, as well as their property management services to a worldwide audience. They get inquiries from Europe, Asia, and all over the U.S. Not even the Wall Street Journal was accomplishing that, at about $200 per 1 day, 1 inch classified ad!! About one in three inquirys for leasing now come from the website.
- Real estate may be the most competitive industry on the web for visibility. Ennis Realty gets found consistently on the search engines for appropriate searches. Its no accident! Inquire about meta indexing and search engine registration.
- ScanDoc: Document scanning and archiving services
- Logo by Ennis Web Design!
- The ScanDoc site has a registration system for interested parties to get price information and a follow-up call.
- Look for this emerging company to make turning paper docs into electronic docs easy for anyone! A good site to visit for anyone who is drowning in paper, like banks, insurance agents, tax preparers, homeowners, salespersons, real estate agents, mortage brokers, gee, who isn't drowning in paper? ScanDoc can convert about 20,000 pages to fit on one CD-ROM!
- Southbound Light Tackle & Fly Fishing Co.
- An east central Florida fishing guide. No "fish tales" here, Capt. Kevin has the photos!
- United Pacific Mortgage
- UPM has a 27 page loan application package. EWD converted their package to Adobe Acrobat® format with embedded text. Now, loan officers
can carry a CD or laptop with them and print a package, or individual pages, at will. (Forms on website are not by EWD.)
- McMullen's Japanese Antiques: Japanese Antique Experts / Retail Store
- EWD was contacted by Irion Enterprises to help investigate some problems with the McMullen's existing website. While EWD helped them reclaim their domain name and site data from a host they were not happy with, Irion Enterprises got their computers at their store squared away.
- EWD is providing hosting and occasional consulting.
- Creative Structures: Architect and General Building Contractor
- Customized Java applet for navigation and random access to site section for visitor. Setup alternate pages with no frames or Java for old browsers and accessibility.
- Providing maintenance including preparation and adding photos of new projects to the site.
- Marty's Hobbies: For kids of all ages!
- Marty has a HUGE inventory, so his site lists just a few manufacturers and products. He has planes, cars, trains, helicopters, boats, rockets, motorcycles, and all the radio controllers, parts, tools, and paint to go with them. He also has a big newsstand. Marty says "Special orders are no problem!"
- Cali U.S.A. Acoustics, Inc.: A California ceiling, wall systems, and luminous ceilings contractor.
- RL & Associates: Computer network and assistive technology consultants and resellers
- California Appraisal Group: A southern California real estate appraiser
- This site features an appraisal request form that emails requests to the company.
- Big Bang Productions: Digital and analog recording studio
- Big Bang changed hosts and noticed a decline in email, which translates to potential lost revenue. EWD added meta tags based on how they wanted to be found by people using the search engines, and also registered them. Its nice to pop up number one on AltaVista for your industry out of several million results!
- Big Bang called Ennis Web Design to help with MP3 audio.
- Kathy Martinez: Disability Management Consultant
- Ms. Martinez's site needed to be accessible to all audiences due to her international work on behalf of people with disabilities.
- The Disability Access Report: A radio program dedicated to discussion of issues of concern to people with disabilities, their families, collegues, and service providers.
- This site is currently in hiatus. May, 2002
- This website has archived audio files of programs that air on National Public Radio affiliate KHSU-FM, Arcata, California. Peggy Martinez is the producer, and Sean Ennis is the engineer. It was only natural to setup a website so people out of KHSU's range can listen.
- Programs are in RealAudio™ and MP3 formats. We are also working on text transcriptions.
- This site lets visitors with low vision pick their preferred color scheme and font size, then saves it for the next visit. This is done with PHP so it does not rely on client-side scripting. It does require cookies if you want your settings saved.
- Friends of the Animal Shelter, Jackson County, Oregon
- A very good example of a community site. This was a project through Southern Oregon State College in Ashland. Sean Ennis, Chief Developer, was a mentor for a student learning website design.
