The Work of Joshua Tuscan, Esquire.
I make websites with tender loving care. It's what I enjoy. Those things that make the difference, that is where I spend my time. The details, the craftsmanship. Below are samples to peruse. Poke around a bit, stay a while. If you like what you see, drop me a line and grab a copy of my cv. If you get bored with this stuff, check out my blog and the monitor page.
Schools for Schools, Invisible Children - client-side development (solo)
I had a lot of fun with this one. Invisible Children wanted to create a fundraising site with social networking features from the ground up. I was in charge of the client-side development on my own, and it was my first time working with a rails generated site. Take some extra time to look around this one, it's well crafted and there are a lot of nifty features and functionality.

Team Redbull - client-side development (solo)
Full site for NASCAR's Team Red Bull driver AJ Allmendinger. We added a rather excellent feature called "Ask AJ." Users can submit serious or ridiculous questions, AJ will respond, and all questions that get answered are posted live on the site. Just imagine what comes out of a NASCAR driver's head.

Millipore - client-side development (solo)
Full site template build geared towards flexibility the ability to hand off to outside programming team. I took pains to develop this one in such a way as to be easily translated into the eight languages that Millipore needs their site to be displayed in. I then did a month of consulting with Millipore's in-house development team to convert the templates into their working Java and JSP version. (Not yet live)

adidas Golf - client-side development (solo)
Full site built in 4 days of development. adidas Golf's redesign for 2007 switched to a white theme and a cleaner, more sparse look. Enjoyed putting together the top navigation and the footer in particular. The media section is worth a look.

KPBS - client-side development
A massive overhaul of the KPBS site. This behemoth uses just about every technology out there. I got into Smarty templates to a deeper extent, streaming video, Subversion, Wordpress, Ajax, Podcast embedding, and much more.

CBS Press Express - client-side development
CBS's site for press information. This site was a lesson in organizational skills and global css classes. Many similar pages, but different shades and variations depending on what section you are currently in.
CS3 Icon Set - client-side development (solo)
David Mikula created an icon set to resemble the current offering from Adobe for their CS3 suite of applications. We collaborated to create a site to package and distribute the icon set to the general public. This is the result of that collaboration. Web development executed by yours truly. Figuring out a custom version of Nice Titles was fun.
