I live on the Gold Coast, Australia, where I graduated as Bachelor of IT with 1st Class Honours from Griffith University in 2004. Since then I have enjoyed working in web design and development.
I currently work full time designing websites from my studio in Burleigh Heads. I'm always on the lookout for projects small or large, so please contact me if you need my services.
I like creating unique clean sites that are easy to understand and navigate. All my works comply with web standards, have a minimal use of flash, elegant hand coded CSS and XHTML of course!
Please check out my portfolio where I have a selection of my latest sites. View my resume here deanoakley.emurse.com.
Super creative and hyper active. Daniel, a Photographer based in the US needed a flexible online presence… fast! We have set the site up so Daniel can easily add new events and blog posts to the home page. The gallery systems in the blog and gallery sections allow for easy uploading, sorting and automatic resizing. Take a ganda!

WPS is one of the leading Safari firms specializing on primates. The site design is built to maximise the impact of the incredible photography and the magnificence of the primates themselves. The home page flash provides the primary ‘wow factor’. The firm operates in ten different countries, which brings a huge amount of content. We used the Typo3 CMS which allows them to manage every last detail of the site.
Responsibilities: HTML, CSS, Design and Typo3 CMS
Baynham Couldridge is a London based high end construction, development and design firm. They were after a flexible CMS and a design that could make good use of some of the stunning images of their work. I used typo3 for the back end and was really happy with how the menu turned out.
