Madskill.com – Youth Marketing

Ray Hernandez — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 19:54:53 +0000

A complete overhaul on Madskill.com. They had a site that was a bit dated, and wanted something fresh that showed off their humble spirit and their local flavor.

Feed Blendr

Ray Hernandez — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 18:30:31 +0000

Feedblendr.com lets you combine multiple feeds into one clean coded feed. Beau Lebens wanted a clean and easy to use interface for this web app.

Red was the color of choice by the client, and I created a very clean, web 2.0 ui. Below you can read a little bit more about Feedblendr.

FeedBlendr takes the feeds you give it, pulls the individual entries from each of them, attempts to sort them in date order (combined across all feeds) and then provides you with a new, blended feed of all entries. This system was written from the ground up using the programming language PHP. I’m also using MySQL to manage the feed information on the backend, and FeedBlendr is hosted on the wonderful DreamHost. Oh, and the subscribe page uses the icons from Feed Icons and OPML Icons. The blog, this page, Tips and Contact are all managed using the wonderful, open-source blogging engine WordPress.

In case you were wondering, my name (the guy who made this) is Beau Lebens. My main website is Dented Reality, and I do all sorts of projects like this one. This visual interface of this site was designed by my good friend Ray Hernandez and coded up by me in my spare time (around my day-job, which takes up way too many hours in the day).

Feed Filter (not live)

Was going to be the second site in the Beau Lebens feed family. It never made it live, but the design was just as clean as feedblendr.

Matchlive Flyers

A few samples of the Matchlive Event flyers. The goal was to promote the event, and give people a way to exchange numbers. The bottom of the flyer tore off to provide a quick slip of the digits.

The Toph v.1

Ray Hernandez — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 23:35:45 +0000

Who is Toph? He speaks loudly, about everything. He was trying to find a blog that included everything from hot chicks, sports, entertainment, celeb gossip, sex tapes, and everything about himself. Believe it or not this blog did not exist. So, I made it happen. It’s pretty much what I do on a daily basis. I’m fucking Toph, what more do you expect?

Toph came to me looking for a design for his blog, that told a story about who was, and what he is all about. The term “Gangsta” came up about 100 times in the conversation, so I thought what better way to portray him. I’d make it dark and “Gangsta”. This was the first mock of many, and this project is still in the works.
