Abridged Website Design Portfolio

Service Industry

Apex Environmental Consulting, LLC

Apex Environmental Consulting had Torchlight Design design and create their web presence as a marketing tool. We worked with them every step of the way to verify appearance. This website is an example of an "information only" site with a few upgrades. The upgrades include rollover effects on the buttons, faded edges around photographs, custom text graphics, interactive rollover on all links, linked *.PDF documents with standard company forms, email address setup, ftp server setup, and more.

Online-Only Industry

Age of the Magi - Guild Site

Torchlight Design was contracted by a guild from an online roleplaying game called Guild Wars. The name of the guild is "Age of the Magi" and they came to us looking for an affordable way to create a website that would allow their members to talk with each other through emails, forums, as well as creating custom profiles for each member. We also created a logo and did a lot of photo-editing for them as well. Torchlight Design created this site in early 2006, and has been performing all the site maintenance since that time.

Please visit their website by clicking on this link: ageofthemagi.com to see the layout and design of the site.

"We highly recommend Torchlight Design to anyone looking for a professional, creative solution to your online presence. They even helped us list our site with Google AdWords, which actually has the site paying for its own hosting." - Raven Earthmage (Guild Leader)

Art Industry

Spike's Creations

"Spike" came to us for a unique flash-style portfolio of her various creations. We took the images she provided to us and created flash slideshows of her images. We also incorporated one of her acrylic pieces into the backdrop for her interactive button-laced home page. We created this site for Spike's Creations in 2006 and have been performing the needed updates ever since.
