Austin Tennis Club is a great gay and lesbian tennis group. I've been playing with them for about 2 years now, and it's just a great group of people to hang out with. Every year, ATC organizes a charity tennis tournament to raise money for a local charity. This year's tournament website was fairly basic, but since I'm directing the tournament next year, keep an eye out for another great website! I've gotten a few ideas for it already by working on a site for another group's tournament site. More on that later!

This is the main site that I put a lot of work into. For now, it's the most expansive and detailed project I've done as of yet. I'm sure something will come up that will rival this one, but until then, this site is my "king of the court".

As you probably already know, I'm a huge tennis fan and so when the club's last webmaster moved to LA, I jumped at the chance to take over. I've gone through a couple of modifications with this site, but this latest layout and style is probably going to be around for a while. When I first put this up, everyone was just in love with it. I'm glad it was so popular.

More important than its cool style, the site is very functional. I have tried to make this as socially engaging as possible. This site how has individual player profiles, an in-site Instant Messaging system, player listings with contact info, and an easy to navigate menu system.

So guess what?! It's got a new design (as of Jan '08). A little more snazziness and a lot more room to grow. I like it! Color scheme stayed relatively the same, but shuffled some things around. It's more "Web 2.0"-ish. (Man, I hate that phrase!)
