About Me
My name is Joshua Dees, and I have been programming websites and web applications for about 15 years or so now.
Most of my expertise now is in Javascript, PHP, and MySQL databases.
But I also do a lot of programming in other languages including Java, ASP (VB), ASP.net (VB.net), and a few others.
For now, I am working on my own, with the help of a few friends now and then. I am constantly working on projects to build up my portfolio and expand my learning in all directions. I do a lot of work with front-end and back-end programming. My graphical capabilities are limited, but are growing a bit with each new project I put out. One of the things I work on the most in my projects is cross-browser compatability. I'm always finding new ways to tweak my projects to work better across the multitude of browser differences. I also work a lot on my AJAX skills to be able to create some of the most interactive and unique web applications out there.

Work Halted
I was going to put some more effort in building up all of my sites, but I'm putting that on ice until I've finished Protasyte. I'm adding "networking" capability to Protasyte to connect multiple sites across multiple domains, which is how my sites are currently laid out. I'm also working on building applications for Protasyte that I will use in my websites first, then I will work on other applications later.
My ultimate goal is to have Protasyte powering all of my sites, just to show what it is capable of in terms of flexibility, power, and customization. So bear with me ... I know there are many parts to my sites which are not currently up-and-running, and I hope to get to those ASAP. But Protasyte has been moved to the front of the line.
New Theme and Old Themes
So I've finally finished theme v6, and it is up and running, and looks pretty good :). Also, I have brought back (again) the old themes, and am working on getting them up-and-running once more. They should be done in the next few days. Themes v5 and v6 are all done, and the rest will be arriving shortly. I have (for the meantime) dimmed the links to activate the other themes, but they still work if you want to see how progress is going. I will un-dim them when they are completed.
New Server
So I've finally got a new computer which I'm using only for web-hosting, and I'm glad to say it's almost ready to go. Just a little work to do on the database, and it should go live hopefully by the end of this week.
In addition, I'm merging a bunch of my own sites together under an umbrella group called the BP Network. This will include BeliefProductions, JACkL, JAMP-POD, and the newly added JoshuaDees.com.
In order to make this work, I am redesigning the sites from scratch, so I'm not planning (at least for the mean-time) to bring back the old themes. Maybe sometime down the road, but I'm not sure yet. If you want to check out the progress, go to <a href="http://www.beliefproductions.org:8080">http://www.beliefproductions.org:8080</a>. This will lead you to the new group.
New Version of BP for iPhone/iPod
I'm working on creating a version of BeliefProductions' website for use on the iPhone/iPod. It will use the iUI created for the iPhone/iPod version of Safari, as well as AJAX for loading pages and transitioning between them. It will use the same url (<a href="http://www.beliefproductions.org/">http://www.beliefproductions.org/</a>), and will automatically detect if the visitor is using an iPhone/iPod, and use those files instead. It will take a little time to copy all of the pages over, but it should look very nice in the end!
Bringing Back Old Themes
So just for the fun of it, and to show off what I can do with CSS, I'm bringing back some of the old themes for this site, and allowing you to change what theme you want to see by using the icons at the top of the page. Just click a link to temporarily use a different theme, which will reset the next time you open your browser, or select a new theme.
Hope you enjoy this!
