Second re-design of the UC San Diego VisArts website with additional features that the clients wanted. Themed some of the front-end so that the website stays current with Responsive Design for mobile compatibility.
Build out the back-end with Drupal and creation of a custom module to make AJAX updates directly to forms instead of going to another page. The planner also contains the ability to send out reminders through email or SMS messages using Tropo. The reminder depends on certain conditions the user chooses on their profile. Besides coding the back-end, also themed the front-end user interface with jQuery library for interactivity and CSS.
Re-themed an existing Drupal 6 using a Fusion subtheme from Photoshop designs. Learned how to create multilayered submenus and different styling / coloring for each section using CSS. Configured the photo galleries, events and blogs as node references (relations) to particular users with different roles for the site. Added twitter feeds, views slideshows, news and events calendar on homepage. Fixed existing content types to include references and for the views to display the required fields.
Used Fusion subtheme for the visual with photoshop comps from Gijo Designs. Utilized CSS3 to create the rounded corners and shadow effects without the use of images.
Added the newsletter and helpful links on the sidebar, share widgets on header, laying out the main sponsors page in custom XHTML and CSS web standards. Configured the photo gallery and video capabilities so that the content managers can easily add photos and videos by either upload or from youtube / vimeo. Also set up the slideshow on the homepage.
Integrated the theme layer to Drupal 7 from Photoshop using a Fusion subtheme. Utilized CSS and jQuery to enable the dynamic slideshows and adjust the speed settings. Fixed bug issues during QA and discussed best way to display images so that the texts are displayed as clearly as possible.
Made sure the site is compatible with all browsers including mobile version. Added custom validation to sign up forms.
Appiness Fulfilled is a sweepstakes site for Verizon Wireless where visitors can sign up for the event and possibly win their dream vacation.
Themed the Front-End using Fusion Subtheme from a Photoshop designed by Saemidori Designs, CSS and XHTML. Customized the look and feel of the site according to how they want sections to be defined. Each section has its own "style", which can be seen by the color changes.
Lots of Q&A between the designer and I, the developer/themer, to get exactly what they want out of the site. For that reason, made sure that adding contents to a section makes sense to a non-technical company and that user interface is straight forward.
