ABOUT ME
Welcome to Splyced. I'm Jacob Dysart an internal communications specialist with a passion for web and graphic design.
I've been working with web and graphics almost daily since 2004, and have been fortunate enough to work for a major university and a global corporation. Although, I did have a year-long stint as a teacher in France between the two. Did I mention I speak French? Minor detail... BACK TO DESIGN!
For me design is about creating a unique and lasting product, but I also enjoy using it as an opportunity to learn new techniques and technologies. I find it is better for everyone if I learn something because I was challenged to do something new.

SKILLS
I am a firm believer in the value of vector graphics. Anything worth producing should be scalable across different media, so I spend a lot of time with illustrator. InDesign and Photoshop also have a warm place in my heart, and about two years ago Flash started nestling in. I work with CS3 and CS4, and don't discriminate between Mac and PC.
I code from scratch, meaning no nonsense, easy to follow code. While I know that HTML is the base, and HTML5 is allowing me to do all sorts of fun things, I must admit the graphic designer in me loves JavaScript and PHP for their added flavor. Last but definitely not least... presentation is everything. I absolutely love CSS3 and its webkits.
