IcyColors History


John Anning, Master CIW
I have been involved with building and repairing computers since 1988, when I built my first IBM compatible PC/XT. In those days, you had to install, partition and format your own hard drives, as well as have a good working knowledge of the "Disk Operating System" (DOS) and its "Command Line" form of executing programs. This was the start of my computing passion. I remember reading every "PC-Magazine", "PC-Computing", and "PC-World" magazine I could get my hands on!

My computer interests and artistic talents came to a head when I decided to blend the two and create a personal webpage for myself. This was so rewarding that I decided to learn the craft on a professional level. Meantime, the steel company that I was employed at for 24 years filed chapter 7 and I quickly found myself looking at a new career opportunity. I chose website design.

IcyColors was established and registered with the state of Illinois on April 23, 2002. IcyColors was conceived and developed for the purpose of offering professional website design at a reasonable price for any company, ministry, or individual interested in making their presence known on the Internet. IcyColors is a full time, freelance, home-based business, located in Dixon, Illinois.


Website Design and Development Training

My formal education, training, and certifications are the result of the excellent facilities and staff at a "New Horizons Computer Learning Center®" as well as the painstaking hours of hard work, research and curious exploration throughout the years. I am continually expanding my knowledge and experience of website design and development as technology moves ahead.

Certifications

I currently hold three certifications; "A+", "i-Net+" and "CIW Master Designer". The prerequisite for obtaining the "CIW Master Designer" certification was completing training for "Foundations", "i-Net+", "Site Designer", and "e-Commerce", and passing exams for each, administered by an authorized CompTIA / Prometric testing center.
 
Goals and Desire

HIGH QUALITY — LOW PRICE
My goal and desire is to offer professional, high-quality, visually appealing, fast loading websites at an affordable price, that are easy to navigate, search engine friendly, and comply with current W3C HTML, XML, and CSS coding standards for cross-browser operability.

CUSTOM DESINGN, NOT "COOKIE-CUTTER" TEMPLATES
I take great pride in the website design work that I develop for my clients. I do not use the "Cookie-Cutter", or "pre-made template" approach that so many designers use to maximize their website production. The "pre-made, cookie-cutter template" approach significantly compromises the flexibility and quality of the final product and does nothing for the personal needs of a client. All of my website designs are created from scratch to specifically accommodate the needs of my clients. This allows the greatest flexibility in creating a website that is highly functional for the needs of my clients, visually appealing, and also easy to navigate.

PERSONAL ATTENTION TO DETAIL
I work closely with my clients, paying attention to details that will make the final website product truly customized and functional specific to my client's needs. I personally work closely with my clients every step of the way until their final website product is exactly what they want and need.
