Web Design

I started designing web sites back in 2007, from then on I have constantly been developing my skills and knowledge. Exploring the work of other designers helped me to create my own style in designing, and distinguish what is good and what is not. Designing brilliant and unique sites had its byproduct, I learned how to use all variety of different programs like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and much more.
  

HTML & CSS Coding

I was always interested in computers, web, coding and all other things. In my first year on colleague I was forced to learn HTML, CSS and XML code, so I become interested and begun exploring it. I regret not starting it earlier. For the last four years I’ve learned HTML and CSS to an excellent level. The most contributing factor in my development was the work that I did at Kliks d.o.o. Working 8-9 hours a day allowed my skills to rise exponentially. Discovering new stuff like HTML5 and CSS3 code inspires me to bring my work to a new level.
  

Adobe Bundle

By working on designing web pages, graphic elements and retouching photographs I was able to learn how to use 6 most used programs in Adobe Bundle. I like to use Photoshop for designing my web pages, but I also know how to use Fireworks if needed, Illustrator for all vector elements like logos, signs and much more. I used Indesign a couple of times but nothing intensive. My newest interest is Flash, I tend to use it exclusively for banners and animated commercials.
  

JavaScript

JavaScript is my second favorite code but I don’t practice it as much as I want to. I can do animations, slides, interactions, and much more to bring life to a page. In the near future I hope to learn how to use Ajax and other cool stuff JavaScript has to offer.
  

PHP Coding

In 2011 suddenly my interest for PHP code was developed. Thanks to my colleague Tomislav Šantek I was able to scratch the surface of this powerful language. I know how to write loops, conditions and other basic stuff. My first project was a simple currency converter.
  

CMS System (WordPress & Joomla)

As I developed my skills, coding static HTML pages was no longer interesting, I needed something new. Dynamic web pages were the obvious choice. I started with Joomla cms system but I wasn’t really impressed. In 2010 I designed and coded my first WordPress page (Made-by-maja.net), and to this day on I’m continuing to explore this awesome blogging platform.
