Local Fishing Charter Captain Updates his Site

Papyrus Doc & Design — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:54:14 +0000

Local fly fishing charter Captain Steve Bailey is a long time client of Papyrus Document & Design. He wanted to update his existing site, but maintain the iconic branding established after almost ten years.

Papyrus rewrote the site from the ground up, although you might not see that much different from the front side. Using modern code to take advantage of cascading style sheets and modern browser widths updated the site without losing the imagery and style Capt. Bailey’s clients had come to love.

Papyrus Document & Design Introduces Local Students to HTML

Papyrus Doc & Design — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 14:22:12 +0000

Several 4th and 5th graders at a local elementary school got to experience writing their own web sites in HTML this fall at a voluntary enrichment class held after school hours. “It was really fun to watch their faces as a page of code turned into a functioning web site before their eyes!” recalled Kim Dailey, webmaster at Papyrus Document & Design, LLC, who volunteered to teach the four session course to thirteen students. “The goal was for them to have a positive experience with code, a better understanding of how web sites are made, and perhaps spark an interest in pursuing web design or programming as a hobby or profession.”

The students each had access to a netbook, already owned by the school; and USB drives, graciously provided by the PTO organization that organizes the enrichment classes. Dailey arranged the curriculum, provided handouts, and instructed the course.

“I provided the students with three blank html pages and some clip art to start with, ” said Dailey. “In class, they wrote a very short story and linked all the pages. Then we added graphics, backgrounds, color, font styling, and finally embedded video, audio and animation into their pages.” At the end of the class series, interested students were allowed to take their pages home to continue to experiment, if they so desired. The students were encouraged to utilize the great learning resources of http://www.w3schools.com/ to explore html and css further.

“It was a really fun experience to share my passion with the youth,” said Dailey.
