PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE PROJECTS

I have created many web sites and programs over the years. Some of that has been lost. But I will try to put some of them on this page for reference. Maybe I'll recreate them in more current languages.

• Colony: Colony was a game I started back in 2007. Written in MS Visual C++. I didn't create everything from scratch myself. The first "incomplete" version of the game loaded the star systems using a program called StarGen. Also part of the game that determined the hability and various atmospheric conditions came from the Mars Terraforming Simulator.
• Mars Terraforming Simulator: I came across the Caculator several years ago. Recently as a way of working to learn C# I have converted the java app to C#. The results are slightly different than the original java code. I'm assuming it something to do with the Java Math Libaries compared to C# Math Libaries since it is the same caculations being performed. It is available here for download.
  
  
  
  
• Comics Tracker: Comics Tracker is a planned Android app the general concept will allow the user to create a database of their comic collection.
• Image Gallery Viewer - Version 2: Written in JavaScript this version allows unlimited jpg's as long as they are numbered correctly. It starts at 1.jpg and continues. You set the number of images in the js file.
• Image Gallery Viewer - Version 1: Written in JavaScript I created it for my angelfire photo gallery. Since using php isn't possible on angelfire the current version is a very basic viewer. The image names are hard coded and in this initial version it can only handle 17 files.
• Math Practice: Written in Visual Basic 6 back in 2002. I created as part of a class project. It gives random math questions and will let you know if they are correct. Excellent training tool for children learning Math. Note - Even though it was written about 11 years ago I have tested it under windows 7 and it still works perfectly.

• SIU Intranet Site: Was a Windows Server 2008 box running IIS, Mysql and PHP. The site has various web applications written in HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and PHP. When I started at SIU I discovered many Web applications that were not being maintained or used. There were several applications including an Alumni Database, Legacy (Transcript Database) and Mealcard (Cafeteria Data System). Most of these databases used MySql or MSSQL.
