After a few weeks with a different design, We decided to go back to the previous one with some “minor” changes.
You can see that a special fonts have been included on some parts of the site. This font is called Harabara, from the name of its author André Harabara. I really like the way it looks, not too fancy but enough to be noticed. The font system was implemented using Cufon.
We also decided to revamp the portfolio and its previous carousel as I think it’s better to give the user a way to interact with the elements instead of having them just scrolling around. The portfolio uses extensively jQuery as this is our Javascript framework of choice.
This new portfolio is showing thumbnails of interesting work and when you click on these, it will popup a bigger version and also a short description.
We also worked on the sidebar and leave it less crowded with just the featured project and some social links.

David H White Jr is a successful writer and needed a website to promote his books. This project was to integrate the design from PSD to a fully working WordPress site.
The goal of this site was to give readers to connect with him via a site, but also via a blog. All the sections of the site has a special look and feel and easy maintenance and keeping the visual settings were key to the success of this project. As the end user will add more books to his portfolio, the design has to remain the same over time without expertise of the WordPress and no css knowledge.

Zen-Dreams’ blog is a heavily customized version of Wordpress through home made plugins such as ZdMultilang and ZdRecentComments and also a specific theme made using sandbox as the main framework and enhancing it to be fully multilingual.
ZdMultilang is the second plugin made by Anthony in order to blog in any number of languages and being able to manage a multi-lingual blog with no fuss.
In fact this is completely transparent to the end user and allows to reach a wider audience.
A Forum is also setup on this blog using BBPress, which allows tight integration with wordpress.
