Mike & Vanessa’s Wedding Site!

February 8th, 2010

Vanessa and I couldn’t decide on a single shop to put a wedding list in, so I decided to make this here Wedding website. It is a list of all the nice things that we imagine that people will want to to get us! In time, we will add maps and other wedding details, but for now it is a list linking to stuff on other random shops and websites. Once people have claimed a gift, they should put their name against it by editing the item and putting your name in the “Bough By…” field. I hope people can work it out!

Rael Jones - Professional CV site

November 12th, 2009

I have (almost) finished a profession CV site for my friend Rael Jones, who is a musician and composer for film and television. As a music freelancer he relies primarily on his IMDB page, but has increasingly been asked for a website by prospective employers. This site in meant to be sharp, simply organised and get right to the point - Rael’s music.

Thumpermonkey.com now in Drupal

August 10th, 2009

I have re-built the Thumpermonkey site in Drupal. Tthe site is now entirely dynamic and super-easy to keep up to date by any of the guys in the band. This is good because (a) we have a bunch of gigs coming up and (b) I’m leaving Thumpermonkey at the end of the year, so I can hand over the admin of the site to the rest of the guys knowing that the site will always look fresh and alive.

A Little Of What You Fancy

March 11th, 2009

Fun and colourful site for my friend Jessica and her new homemade cake business: A Little Of What You Fancy. This is my first full public site with Drupal, and it works really well. Jess has a log-in which allows her to add and edit content (cakes) but all the admin garbage in the background is hidden from her. Still lots to learn, but I think this looks great as a first stab.

50ft Panda - The Tribunal of Mr Shout (EP)

December 2nd, 2008

Completed the album artwork for the new 50ft Panda EP - The Tribunal of Mr Shout. This is their second recording, and we went for a more esoteric, pseudo-mathematical, Illuminati symbolism, mystic conspiracy kinda feeling. I’m very pleased with it, and I’m sure Robert Anton Wilson would like it too…

I have also updated the 50ft Panda site to match the new artwork. Huh!

TootingBizarre.org - Update

November 29th, 2008

Minor facelift and freshen up of the Tooting Bizarre netlabel site, after it was (quite correctly) described as “a little bit Windows XP”… I went for a hand-drawn background, to go with the whole “no-budget”, “do-it-yourself” mood of the site, but kept the clean white look. I just hope we can convince some more fine bands to join our motley crew and slap their music up on the site.
