From the simplest, single page store front, to full database driven, web-based applications, for example for resource scheduling or workflow, we can create or renew your website. You may have your own design inspirations or may want us to come up with standout, eye catching designs.
If you want to have more control of your website, we can write content management solutions, tailored to your needs, allowing you to upload and crop images, change the textual content of the pages and even the structure of the navigation.
Here is a small sample of web sites, You can see the kind of work we are capable of. Click on the thumbnail to visit the actual site.
jagex.com
The main site of an organisation has to be well executed, especially for a web based company such as Jagex Ltd.
Here, several controls on the page combine to make navigation simple and fluid. Tabs, buttons, filters and page controls.
When the browser is JavaScript enabled, every click is handled without a full page refresh. jQuery implementation provides subtle animation - not overdone.
The page has examples of some of the reusable items I created and encouraged the use of, for example the filter controls on the "All Games" page.

www.stellardawn.com
Lead client side developer for this brand new, high profile promotional site for an upcoming game release - Stellar Dawn. This needed to be a standout website, so in addition to the static designs, I added jQuery fade effects for the mouse-over states.
This site had to be delivered to short timescales and was delivered on time. The reusablilty I promoted in other projects once again reaped benefits in getting this project complete on time and to a high standard.

caswell-group.co.uk
The Caswell Group is one of the UK's leading providers of asbestos removal, decontamination, remediation and construction services. This extranet enables them to manage jobs, contacts, staff and the plant that they use on jobs.
The plant used is an expensive asset and as such needs to be regularly tested and maintained, so the stores manager needs to know where a piece of plant is at any one time.
The system allows plant requirements to be set out which are then filled by the stores manager from the available plant.
The system also handles hire orders and job documentation.

barondesign.co.uk
The content of this site needed to be simply updated in house, rather than having a complex and costly content management system, this site simply traverses the server side directory structure, looking for images and descriptions. That hierarchy and content is then mirrored in the menu and slideshows of the site.
Adding new content is a straightforward task of uploading an image folder and adding a plain text file description.

booktheact.com
BooktheAct.com - the direct booking site.
This site was developed in-house from an idea by Harmony's Managing Director.
It enables acts to have online representation independently or in addition to their existing agency.
It incorporates a database which enables event organisers to find acts, check availability and pricing and to see sample videos and photos and hear sample music from the acts.
All of the booking process is handled online from provisional booking all the way through to booking confirmation by both parties.
One of my contributions to the project apart from the coding and database design was the idea of a BookTheAct internet radio for people to sample a variety of the acts' material.
