Who is Dr. Scotty Delicious, DFPA?

My Name is Dr. Scotty Delicious, DFPA. No, the Dr. is not MD. That's Doctor of Fine Pirate Arts for anyone who is counting. I am a freelance graphic and web designer from Madison, WI. My web design work includes (X)HTML, PHP web applications, CSS Stylesheets, and JavaScript.

Aside from web design / development and graphics work, I am a bit of an amateur musician... a home guitarist, if you will. I like gaming on my PS3, and since the state of Wisconsin keeps my name on a registered list of nurses, I get to dabble as an RN... you know, to pay the bills :).

My Favorite Tools

Macbook Pro

Macbook Pro

I love my Macbook Pro. It's beautiful, it's fast, and it lets me work the way I want to work. I have been using Macs since 1997, right about the time I started creating my first web pages. I can't imagine my creative process being as efficient or as engaging without my Mac.

Adobe Photoshop

Adobe Photoshop

I use Adobe Photoshop CS3 for all my graphics work related to web design and logo creation. Photoshop is the industry standard in image creation and editing. The image optimization for those images destined for the web is unmatched. With this tool I can be sure that images will look great and load fast.

TextMate

TextMate

TextMate is the ultimate text editor for Mac OS X. I demand fine control over every aspect of each page, script, and application I create. TextMate allows me to decide exactly what will be included in my source code without having to worry about extra markup added by WYSIWYG editors.

Billings

Billings

Billings helps me track my time and create detailed invoices and estimates. Since most of my services are time/rate based, Billings 2 allows me to keep track of the exact amount of time I am spending on your project.

What makes the good doctor qualified to design my website?

  • Attention to detail

    I love web development. There... I said it. I get a tremendous sense of accomplishment from developing web applications and pages that strictly adhere to the established standards. I love solving the problem of making a page look and behave exactly the same in all major browsers. My sense of accomplishment equals your happy visitors. It's win - win!

  • Fast turnaround

    Unlike many design companies who have to rely on several different smaller companies or groups of website specialists, I am able to do everything in-house. What this means for you is knowing I have the ability to accomplish every aspect of your website or web application design without the delays caused by dealing with third parties.

  • Great value

    As a freelancer, I have no employees and I do not require the services of subcontractors. Being 100% self-sufficient can save a lot of time and money. I am able to offer the services of a large design company for a fraction of the cost.
