Limelight Media Group, an SEO and Web firm in Texas wanted a site and blog that allowed them to change content on the fly. I built them a nifty, semantic, WordPress site.

I was responsible for:

  • Integrating WordPress as a CMS and blog.
  • Building new templates on the fly.
  • JavaScript integration.

This site was based on the original design by Janel Haynie.

They specialize in dog (and owner) training and wanted to be able to update their site with images, video and testimonials; maintain a blog; and eventually sell pet products.

I was tasked with:

  • Integrating WordPress as a CMS.
  • Building new templates on the fly.
  • Flash animation.
  • JavaScript integration.
  • Browser testing and quality assurance.

The initial site design was by the venerable Janel Haynie and the logo by Wendy Williamson.

I’ve been telling myself I’m going to do it for years, and I finally did.

Here’s the new WordPress-based portfolio site. I think I might cry. Seriously, there could be tears.

I consider this a beta. I’ll be updating it for the next few days or so; my tasks include:

  • Adding to my portfolio gallery.
  • Adding to the blog
  • Graphic tweaks.
  • SEO.

It’s like a new car! I can’t wait to tweak it and drive it and name it George!

A few shout outs:

  • My broham Vincent over at Big Sweater for selling me on WordPress.
  • Brandon Jones for his terrific Shapeshifter framework. Yes, it’s modified, but buying the template saved me loads of time.

Cover3, a sports bar in Austin, TX needed a new site that they could easily change on the fly. They wanted it to echo the classy atmosphere of their restaurant – the kind of place where you could go to both enjoy the game and have a great glass of wine.

I was responsible for:

  • WordPress CMS integration
  • JavaScript integration
  • Information architecture
  • Google Checkout integration


Take a look at the site and tell me what you think!
