MTR has been launched

After several weeks of design and development, the new More Than a Roof site has been launched.
We were asked to focus heavily on imagery. Each page has a unique header image relating to the content. These images are quickly and easily updateable by the MTR staff through Drupal's interface. A few unique pages even allow for slideshows.

More Than A Roof Site ReDesign

I am excited to announce that NewbyMedia will begin a (much-needed) site re-design for More Than a Roof starting this month. MTR is a fantastic housing provider for low income households and individuals and is based in Vancouver, BC. They have been actively helping individuals for the past 20 years. Check out their current site for more info, but stay tuned for the new upcoming revamp.

Actions including a custom db query

Though this may be somewhat elementary to some, I decided to archive my journey into a client's database and drupal system today.

Display Images once they load - with jQuery

I've gotten annoyed with the way larger images load on my sites. Especially when you are used to high speed connections, you shouldn't have to see images load from top to bottom. It has a very "90s" feel to me.
I recently came across I nice little jQuery plugin called Window Loaded.

See a working example on my Diptychs Project site.

Basically I just wrap the particular images I want affected in a class, in this case class="load".

NewbyMedia Design

Well, I finally managed to get a portfolio site of sorts onto the web.
There's not much to the site other than occasional blog posts about things I run across in my design and development work. And a showcase for recent websites built for various clients.
Contact me for more info, if you'd like.
