This is my portfolio and consists of sites I have built and other associated projects that I have undertaken.
www.jamieforshaw.biz
Jamie Forshaw hosts a daily radio show on Hope fm and shares his thoughts on politics and current affairs.
I was quite proud of this site as I built not only the front-end, but also most of the back end functionality. I used c# to power the blog and Google calendar sections of the site.
www.sailinglogic.co.uk
Sailing logic are a Southampton based yacht racing charter company with an industry-wide reputation for success.
This was an interesting build because the client wanted to be able to edit and publish their own content, but didn’t want a full CMS solution. We decided to build the site so that it was editable with Adobe Contribute, which the client was already able to use. This was the first site I had built specifically for Contribute editing and was a great way to use some of Dreamweaver’s advanced templating features such as editable regions and page templates.
www.nice2tri.com
Nice2tri are a sports equipment retailer speciailising in triathlon training and competing. I built the entire front-end of this 50+ page e-commerce store while working for MAD Productions in 2009.
The site is powered by jQuery and also uses a jQuery plugin that I authored.
www.rigbyandpeller.co.uk
Rigby and Peller are a London-based family run business with a chain of shops that provide a bespoke lingerie service. I built the HTML template for this e-commerce store in 2008 while working at MAD Productions.
The site uses jQuery for all of its sepecial effects, and a custom JS library (MAD.js) that I wrote myself for all of the site’s general scripting requirements.
YUI Compressor Automator
YUI Compressor Automator is an application I wrote in my spare time using VB.NET for the Windows platform in 2009. It adds a drag and drop based GUI to Yahoo’s excellent CSS and JS minifying command-line tool.
It makes the whole process of minifying files much easier and allows you to compress whole batches of files at once instead of having to maunally minify each file using the command-line.
jPoll 1.0
jPoll is a jQuery plugin I wrote which allows you to easily host visitor polls on your web site. You can set a question to ask visitors and when they select an answer the choice is sent to a server-side app for processing. Once this has been done the results of the poll so far are displayed as a bar graph and animated smoothly to the values.
