My Vitals
My name is Jeremy Britten and I am the Web Designer for the University of North Alabama in Florence, Alabama. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with an emphasis in graphic design. This site is an extension of my interests in graphic and web design.
Historic Oakland Cemetery
On a recent business trip to Atlanta, the Office of University Communications team (which I am a part of here at UNA) had the great opportunity to meet with the brilliant folks at Mindpower, Inc. While there, they treated us to a delicious lunch at Six Feet Under Pub & Fishhouse and after that we took a nice stroll through Historic Oakland Cemetery across the street. This cemetery was one of the most amazing places I have seen. Our makeshift tourguide through the property was Don from Mindpower. He knew just about everything there was to know about the cemetery and made it interesting to learn about (Thanks Don!). If you ever get the chance, please go see this place! The excerpt below is taken directly from the cemetery’s website.
Less than a mile from the heart of downtown Atlanta, a hidden treasure, a secret sanctuary, welcomes you. This garden cemetery, founded in 1850, is the final resting place of many of Atlanta’s settlers, builders, and most noted citizens like Bobby Jones, Margaret Mitchell, and Maynard Jackson. It is also a showplace of sculpture and architecture, and a botanical preserve with ancient oaks and magnolias. Here in this peaceful place the full scope of the city’s rich and fascinating history unfolds before you.
From a hilltop in Oakland Cemetery, General John B. Hood watched the Battle of Atlanta, and nearby lie soldiers from both sides who died in it. From that point you will have one of the best views of Atlanta’s growing skyline, and you will begin to understand the people who came together to make Atlanta what it is today.
UNA’s new website is live!
The day has finally come. On Friday, September 5th, 2008 I launched Phase 1 of the brand new University of North Alabama website. This phase included the home page and most top level pages (except for Athletics). Phase 2 will migrate all the department websites into the new design.
This has been my baby since March, and I’m really pleased with the final result. Thanks to all of you who have helped me along they way and your encouraging feedback and compliments.

History in the Making
My employer, the University of North Alabama, launched their new identity, logo and integrated marketing campaign “History in the Making” on Friday September 5th, 2008.
To go along with that launch, I designed a ‘mini site’ that shows some ways that UNA is currently making history. This site will be added to as time goes on, so keep checking back to see the latest.
