Exhibit 99.1

                                 CERTIFICATIONS

I, Robert C. Shreve, Jr., certify that:

1.       I have reviewed this quarterly  report on Form 10-QSB of Avatar Systems
         Inc.;
2.       Based on my  knowledge,  this  quarterly  report  does not  contain any
         untrue  statement of a material  fact or omit to state a material  fact
         necessary to make the  statements  made, in light of the  circumstances
         under which such  statements  were made, not misleading with respect to
         the period covered by this quarterly report;
3.       Based on my knowledge,  the financial  statements,  and other financial
         information  included in this quarterly  report,  fairly present in all
         material  respects the financial  condition,  results of operations and
         cash flows of the  registrant as of, and for, the periods  presented in
         this quarterly report;
4.       I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls
         and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-14 and 15d-14) for
         the registrant and I have:
         a)       designed  such  disclosure  controls and  procedures to ensure
                  that material  information  relating to the registrant is made
                  known to me by  others  within  those  entities,  particularly
                  during the period in which this quarterly report was prepared;
         b)       evaluated the  effectiveness  of the  registrant's  disclosure
                  controls and  procedures  as of a date within 90 days prior to
                  the filing  date of this  quarterly  report  (the  "Evaluation
                  Date"); and
         c)       presented in this quarterly  report my  conclusions  about the
                  effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures based
                  on the required evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;
5.       I  have  disclosed,   based  on  my  most  recent  evaluation,  to  the
         registrant's  auditors and the audit committee of registrant's board of
         directors (or persons performing the equivalent function):
         a)       all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or  operation of
                  internal   controls   which   could   adversely   affect   the
                  registrant's ability to record, process,  summarize and report
                  financial  data  and  have  identified  for  the  registrant's
                  auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls; and
         b)       any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves management
                  or  other  employees  who  have  a  significant  role  in  the
                  registrant's internal controls; and
6.       I have  indicated in this  quarterly  report  whether or not there were
         significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
         significantly  affect internal  controls  subsequent to the date of our
         most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to
         significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
