About Stransky Web Designs

Stransky  As far as I can remember like 20 years ago when the first Texas instrument came out with that great optional 2k expansions pack, I have been programming since. That was even before the first Atari's came out if I remember right. Simple programming like making those black dots chase other black dots on the black & white TV screen's.

  While in high school taking commercial and industrial trade electricity, and working part-time after school I repaired Heavy commercial and industrial machinery. After Graduating High School I was an Electronic Technician in the Navy till my honorable discharge in 1993.  While in the Navy any photographs I took where never of myself, but the scenic views of places we pulled into port. Now the point of the photography stuff comes into perspective later on in my story.

   After working as a fabricator & programmer of automation line machinery for a few years, While working at a research site I was introduced to Visual Basic, on top of the ladder logics and basic programming languages I knew.

   While living on Long Island New York during the mid 90's I found a niche programming web based building automation controls along with all the graphical representation enhancements for each project. After a days work when I found time from my day job I was researching into my family genealogy and building html pages.

   Well everyone sometime soon or later hits a point in their lives where things change. In my case -- Correction-- "My family's case" After the Enron thing and 9/11 not only hurt those directly effected, but months later had forced companies to fold or drastically down size. Well I had a family to support and if I tried to wait it out, I would have lost everything. So we moved South, to Georgia, and now reside outside of Augusta.Stransky Web Designs www.stransky-webdesigns.com

  Since living in our new Georgia home, my children loved horses and riding them, and I loved taking photos of them and local scenic views again. Anytime was ever given the chance to help out many co-workers & friends build their own web pages or helped them search family records or other web based programs. Many people told me that I should get paid for what I do. Talking with one such person was Daryl a co-worker sent Jim to me who was asking about his site. That was the not the first website I ever did, but it was the first one while in Georgia and not of the industrial sales sense. 

   Well after giving it some thought, OK, so its not buildings or automated machinery that I am putting on the web or energy management controls. And I really did not know much about the equine industry I started making networking calls to link with his site, invite them to attend Jims' sale. Well, Bob C.  was one such person who was happy that I called him giving him an invitation.  I was even more happy that he ask me to rework his website.

  Now my day job requires much of my time 7 days a week but on my days off I spend with my family and put some time into the the sites I manage. Web mastering is ok a side hobby when you first start out. but if the clients you pick up like your work, well then it might just pay off the the time which you put into their sites.   So in 2006 was the year we put Stransky Web Designs as a company. Its a small family thing but as time goes on my children will learn what I teach them. It would have been nice for me if the web was around when I was in school, but at least for my kids when they are ready they will be able to design websites while they are in school making some money before they graduate. And if they are good at what they do they can make a career out of it.

  Thank you,
