Welcome!

Hi, I'm Dustin Quam and this is my portfolio website. It's horrendously outdated. I'm working on it. Promise.

I've divided these projects into two sections: design and development. While essentially these categories are very similar, I decided to distinguish the sites I've designed and coded from scratch from the backend programming that I've done for various sites.

My web design philosphy includes the following priorities:

• Browser support across the board. No browser left behind. This includes the oft-detested Internet Explorer 6.
• Full accessibility for screen readers and mobile browsers.
• Scalable, clean designs.
• Easy on the eyes typography.
• No bloat. This includes overuse of Javascript and Flash.
• Sites should be usable on computers made within the last six to seven years. If not, they should have a simple fallback version.
• Standards compliancy.
• Beautiful HTML.

My programming philosophy:

• Comments, comments, comments. Commented code is the best code!
• Keep it simple, stupid! 
• Don't repeat yourself.
• Keep it object-oriented.
