Justin did my Web site, and I could not be happier with it. If anyone out there is thinking about getting a Web site, definitely put Justin on the top of your list. He’ll do a wonderful job for you, and he’s very easy to work with.

yeah yeah yeah, Mr. Modest. Fine whatever. But Justin, you are *the only* mind-reading website designer I know.
So glad I found you, I mean Amy, or well, you know what I mean.
And hey, let’s not forget that not only is J a talented designer, but his company is Johnny on the spot with updates and changes.
Can’t recomend you any higher than I do. BTW, my uncle should be emailing you re a site any day now.

Great explanation, Justin. I just might have a slightly better understanding. Still, the talent for this sort of “magic” has to be there and you evidently have it in abundance.

I cannot wait to get started on my website.

Kathy, I’m always glad when you stop by. I’m eager to see what your site will look like.

Hi all.

Thanks so much for the nice comments.

I wish I could say that there was some magic or mystical “force” that goes into it. Most of the time it’s just trying things and the ones that look interesting, I run with. Or, as I tell Amy, my wife, sitting down and beating on the design (and my head) until it comes together.

Each site is a challenge in itself and each one has its unique personality. Some come quickly and some, well, let’s just say I have more than a little grey hair.

I love the challenge and the process though. Kathy, I’m looking forward to working with you on your project.

To those of you planning on hiring Stonecreek for your sites, I’m truly flattered, and would love to work with you.

Thanks again.

I just contracted with Justin’s company to build my website. Perhaps I’m putting the cart before the horse, the horse being a published novel, but, whatever. I’ve seen the work he’s done, I was completely blown away by it (this coming from an art major).

After reading this blog, I can’t wait to see what’s in store.

Thanks, Magical Musers, for having Justin as your guest today.

Justin,

I’m so glad you wrote this blog. I’ve been wondering how you work. Now I’ll know what to expect when I get enough money saved to contact you.

I love that your websites are created to create an emotional reaction. Now I need to give some serious though as to what kind of emotion I want to inspire. The timing of this blog couldn’t have been better. It will give me some time to think things over and by the time I’m ready to get ahold of you, I should have a good idea of what I want.

I love Edie and Karin and Michelle’s. You’re brilliant.

Justin, sorry you didn’t take any of the magic out of what you do by explaining it. You take words and thoughts from writers and make them visual. You are a magician.

Justin, one day my time will come like Rebecca’s. And I shall call you. I agree with Edie and Michelle, your work is magical. You must get a great deal of satisfaction sprinkling art in cyber-space. I enjoyed hearing about the process. Thanks for sharing!

You’re a truly gifted artisan, Justin. When I’m ready to go for the gorgeous updated website, you’ll be the man I hire.
