Don Schaefer.com

The 3rd re-design of my DonSchaefer.com website. Building upon prior experience, I kept a few small pieces of the site flash-based and provided a decent amount of text. However, this time I began adding more visual flair to the website through the use of icons, background-images, and css to give the site more personality.
