Pam Hawkes/Oct 2010

Development of a website for local artist Pam Hawkes, includes basic Content Management System.

Pam Hawkes is an artist who wanted a website to promote her artwork and show some of the pieces she currently had for sale.

This was the first of a few websites I developed which were designed by Dan Sharp.

The site was a small site with 4 pages and an image gallery displaying thumbnails of Pam's artwork. Clicking on one of the thumbnails displayed a larger image and details about the piece. The site also had an admin area to allow Pam to quickly and easily update her content.

The admin area was built from scratch using flat text files to store the information as the server provided didn't support a database. There was an image upload and cropping facility so Pam could add her images to the site and choose which section of the image she wanted to use as the thumbnail.

Features

CMS - Admin area allowing Pam to edit the content on all pages
Image Gallery - Paginated image gallery with preview thumbnails displaying larger images when clicked on
Image Cropping - Within the admin area when an image is uploaded, Pam can select the area of the image to use as the thumbnail
Image Details - Each image has a title, type and size associated with it
Image Ordering - Pam can also specify the order images are displayed
Design by Dan Sharp

The site is no longer live but a preview can be viewed by clicking on the link below:
