I specialise in coding small bespoke sites from the ground up, combining clever functionality with an eye for asthetics. I could do yours. Here are some I coded up from scratch with the latest first.
Buckingham Fool
The official jester for Buckingham needed a site that would be a doddle to update and convey his strong individual character in a fun and dynamic way.
The site embeds the jester’s Twitter posts, Flickr photos and Google calendar while linking to his blog and Facebook page.
Said Sam Cross:
From the off, Simon took my vague ramblings and sparse specification and worked tirelessly to produce a result that, not only am I pleased with, but one that has already recieved many a compliment from other industry professionals and potential clients. It does exactly what I wanted to it do and is a great tool to promote my business. It has been a pleasure working with Simon on my web project, he has been effective, friendly and very professional. I would recommend him happily.
ImageBreeder
This site was produced while I was research fellow at CERCIA with the aim to provide a web based platform for interactive evolutionary art. Users are able to ‘breed’ abstract designs online then submit them to a gallery for other users to rate. The work has been cited.
Purple Mermaid
This is an active site that evolved over several years under different environments and requirements. It features a custom chat box, events listings and a forum installation. The combination of these elements make this the most active and long running site for a Guild society.
Congress on Evolutionary Computation
A one-off smart design requested for this leading international conference. A key issue here was to make the layout flexible and attractive without causing it to break down hideously on the older browsers which still persist in many parts of the academic environment.
Arco-Iris Samba Band
I wanted a website that reflected the bright and colourful character of this group to the extent of scanning in the drum strap of the band leader to produce the rainbow side banner. The design has been tweaked slightly but the look remains the same.
