| Web site’s name: |

| Description: |
The official website of the Czech Canine Therapy Association, an umbrella coalition of 17 organizations providing dog-therapy for facilities in the Czech Republic. Unfortunately, the organization no longer exists. |
| My involvement: |
Graphic design, photo editing, some text editing, some translation |
| Notes: |
Before I took over this site, it was designed by the director’s 14 year old son. After all CTA is a non profit and he actually did a pretty good job for a teenager. Since many members said they rather liked it, I stuck to the original color scheme and the new logo. But I felt we needed some dog pics in there and they were well received. |

Unpublished / Off line |

2003 |
| Language versions: |
English |
| Web site size: |
over 50 pages |
| Description: |
My own site dedicated to web design, content development and consulting services. |
| My involvement: |
All texts, web design, basic search engine optimization. |
| Notes: |
This site is 70% complete and I decided not to publish it. I simply never got to it and now it needs re-working. For one thing, it still has my maiden name in the letterhead. But it’s a fun design, composed from a real picture of my corkboard, using Ken Nash’s cartoons, my favorite quotes etc. One day, I might get to it, for now, the work will have to speak for itself. |

6 pages |
| Description: |
Small online store featuring handmade Eastern European corn-husk dolls. |
| My involvement: |
Photography, texts, web design |
| Notes: |
My friend’s mother makes these beautiful dolls and I tried to see if we could sell them online, but the project never took off. I only started to develop this website, but I think the animation is nice and the background, made from corn husks, is kind of cool. |
