About NealGrosskopf.com
Hi, I'm a 39 year old Professional Web Designer from Northeastern Wisconsin, in the United States. I've been happily making websites for the last 26 years.
I'm happiest when mocking up websites in Adobe Fireworks, converting designs to HTML+CSS and writing articles related to CSS & Web Design. I also like to dabble in JQuery, Web Analytics & Search Engine Optimization.
My site, NealGrosskopf.com, has been featured on renowned websites such as CSS Beauty, Smashing Magazine, CSS Globe, 456 Berea Street and has hit the home pages of Digg, Delicious & Developer Zone numerous times.
History of NealGrosskopf.com

In the Beginning: 2003 - 2005
NealGrosskopf.com started out on a school's web server back in 2003 when I attended Fox Valley Technical College. The site was nothing more than some funny quotes, pictures and was just a vehicle to host my web class projects.

Birth of NealGrosskopf.com: November 2005
I then attended Lakeland College and worked on the school's website. A fellow co-worker recommended that I buy a domain and continue to develop my website. On October 18th, I had a design finished and on November 9th I purchased NealGrosskopf.com and officially launched NealGrosskopf.com.
