Robert Daly’s Summary
I've been interested in web design & development since the mid-90s when the internet was its infancy. I started off with websites hosted on GeoCities with simple HTML before moving onto bigger and better things.
I studied Multimedia Technology & Design at Brunel University which expanded on my front end coding skills by adding design, video and 3D to my skill set.
I now work for Dennis Publishing where I work across a huge portfolio and do advertising work for the highest calibre of companies.
As the internet continues to grow, so do I. I use daily XHTML / CSS, web technologies such as PHP / MySQL, Javascript / AJAX and Flash. I am following the progress of the HTML5 and CSS 3 spec and am looking forward to their implementation.

Web Designer
Dennis Publishing
(Privately Held; 201-500 employees; Publishing industry)
March 2008 — March 2010 (2 years 1 month)
I joined Dennis at the start of 2008 as a Web Designer and work on their entire online portfolio, including their Flash magazine publications (Ceros).
Some examples of my projects at Dennis are:
Maxim
In 2009 I was tasked with redesigning the Maxim website, I came up with some initial treatments, but sadly the magazine was closed as a print publication and its relaunch downgraded to a colour scheme change as the site presently is.
Monkey Magazine
Redesign and rework the front end for Monkey Magazine's site. The editorial team gave me free reign from a design point of view and the old markup & CSS were completed replaced. Monkey was incorporated into Kontraband mid 2009.
Expert Reviews
Expert Reviews was launched by Dennis towards the end of 2009. I was responsible for implementing the front end, which included using Smarty and all the CSS for the site.
As well as working on our own brands, I have worked on advertising campaigns for various companies such as:
Microsoft, Intel, EA, Intel, Dell, Paramount, O2, Symantec to name a few. -
