A collection of web design related ramblings and nonsense

New website for solo artist

March 27th, 2010

I design this site a couple of years ago for a friend and he’s finally wanted me to put it live. Being a while since I designed it, the site is a bit different to my current style, if I designed it now it would be quite different – probably simpler, not as textured and more monotone. Saying that, I still quite like it!

One of the main challenges was displaying the YouTube videos using the API and creating an image uploader that automatically resizes and saves the images, adding them to the gallery. I also created this a couple of years ago – why I didn’t find a wordpress plugin – I don’t know!

On the other hand, creating a bespoke CMS is sometimes simpler than forcing plugins to your will.
