web design

Twist of Lime designs custom websites which reflect the image and message behind each client's brand, in an organized, functional, and elegant interface. And in an age of over-information, a “less is more” approach is central to site design: it keeps you on message, content management is easier, but, most importantly, your visitors remain engaged and are able to find what they need.

Let's keep it fresh, simple, on time and on budget —nothing less with Twist of Lime.

web hosting

Website hosting is typically provided to individuals or small companies who will be using Twist of Lime to design, maintain and update their website.

Hosting is $130 per calendar year for up to 200MB of disk space. Email boxes, MySQL databases, FTP accounts, and a website stat program is included with each hosting account. Other determining cost factors which must be considered: bandwidth usage and back-end needs.

cms

The Twist of Lime website uses Movable Type (MT), a full featured, all-in-one, scalable content management system (CMS). With MT you can publish and manage content using just a browser — no need to learn code.

Movable Type Features:

  • Deploy unlimited blogs and websites
  • Design customized blogs
  • Modify the look and feel
  • Make content easy to find with tags, tag search, and tag clouds
  • Oversee authors and permissions
  • Upload and manage assets, like images, video, and audio
  • Engage readers, foster a community of sharing
  • Manage the feedback, protect against spam

If you'd like to learn more about Movable Type, or require help installing, customizing, and managing your website with a different CMS, please contact Twist of Lime to discuss your plans.

community

Occasionally I donate my design skills and hosting services to non-profits. Please contact me for my current availability and to determine whether we're right for each other.

Present

Fish Emergency Service helps the less fortunate by providing free food and clothing. The site was designed and built by Twist of Lime; site hosting and updates are ongoing.

Past

For three consecutive years I designed and hosted websites: Race To Stop Global Warming (RTSGW) and Green House Network (GHN). Each year GHN held an annual race, RTSGW, at the Oregon Zoo to raise global warming awareness. Nearly a thousand runners participated in the last year it was held. Green vendors were on-hand, medals were given out, and the event ended with a children's race.

 

Happy Limes

“I've worked with Tracy on a half dozen projects, and each time he's brought an impressive arsenal of knowledge to help clients shine. He's built two Web sites for me, and we've collaborated on other Web and graphic projects. He's prompt, extremely reasonable and adds a creative flair to cut through the communications clutter. He has my highest recommendation.”
