Operis and Owl & Cat

Added on June 30th, 2011

More updates to my Work page! Just added Operis and Owl & Cat. Both of which were great projects to work on. But then again, I’ve always enjoyed working on WordPress projects.

Some new things learnt as always while working on these, especially how underused WordPress shortcodes are. Quite extensive use of custom shortcodes on Operis site to make easier and less messy to update.

Got to play around with Big Cartel as well while working on Owl & Cat, and I must say I’m impressed. Easy to use, easy to theme up, and quite cheap (there’s even a free version) for a hosted e-commerce / online shop system.

BJJW Limited

Added on May 10th, 2011

Added a new project today to my portfolio / work section, BJJW Limited. BJJW Limited is a legal search and headhunting agency and they needed a new webpage. Once again I teamed up with Mark Dormand to produce an excellent, very clean and elegant webpage.

Things learned from this project? jQuery still rocks, it doesn’t always have to be an expensive and massive webpage with a CMS, sometimes a simple HTML site is exactly what you or the client needs, and html image maps still have their uses (check out the contact page on BJJW‘s webpage for that).

Moustachify

Added on April 27th, 2011

Just updated the Work section to include my latest project, moustachify.me. It’s a silly little project that I created a few weeks ago already, but only now got around to creating the interface for it.

What it does basically is take a picture that you supply, and using OpenCV and PHP Facedetect Extension it will look for all the faces in a picture and apply a moustache to the faces. Once it has done that it provides you with a bit.ly link where you can see your image and/or share it.
