The Parable Group Experience

The Parable Group first started their web site late in 1995. It was my first ever site using FrontPage. Over the 3 years I worked on the site, it went from a 10 page "business card" to a large web site of over 5,000 web pages. The Parable Group was a bible, books, and music Christian store. During this time I learned interactivity, web management, web marketing, and mostly design. The utmost of my development was simple ASP forms. 

As for design, I got a chance to design a new site everytime a new Parable catalog came out. Here are some features of music artists I did for the Parable Group web site.

All features included creation of wallpaper, audio encoding to REAL AUDIO and VIDEO. The only material I could work from was a simple photo glossy and album cover design. It was up to me to integrate that throughout the site. Most images needed A LOT of work prior to posting.

Of course, now that you guys want to see my work on the web, it turns out that the Parable web site which hosts the featured artists above have been removed for awhile. Below is a letter from the Parable:

Thank you for visiting Parable.com. As you can see we have given our site a new look and functionality.  Unfortunately not all of the former features are available just yet.  We are updating some of them to be available soon.  Stay tuned!  If you have any other questions, please feel free to write back.

In Christ,
