I have recently finished a web project with RTU Mortar based in Newtonabbey. The new website was built on the concrete5 CMS platform and provides an excellent set of features for the end users. All the site content and the final appearance is controlled by RTU themselves but the core was extended to provide the functionality they require to maintain an easily updatable, dynamic CMS.

I am planning to revamp things slightly on my website due to the fact that I don’t have much time these days for the web design hobby but still want to maintain a list of some of the sites I have worked on. I think I will use the blog for this. Another site I have built fairly recently is a new photography portfolio for Stephen Caldwell.
The site is built with PHP and uses custom code to build up galleries/slideshow features. The plan is to add some additional functionality in the form of a WordPress Blog to make things much easier to manage news articles and site updates.

I have recently been sorting out a lot of my video editing stuff and getting clips uploaded to youtube. One of the first clips I recorded on the Canon HV40 was at the NI Airshow. It was a real pity that the weather was absolutely atrocious but I still managed to salvage some clips from the day.
I have added a new category to the blog for those of us who have an interest in the Microsoft SharePoint space. Anyone who has used MOSS 2007 will no doubt have many dislikes with the current version and waiting with interest of what the 2010 version will bring.
Renamed as SharePoint 2010, the new version has some amazing new features. I have been playing around with the Beta version in a virtual machine and it looks very slick from the first glance. Read more…
Been a while since I posted anything in the blog but wanted to share a new(ish) and exciting CMS called Concrete5. This is an absolutely outstanding system which is free of charge. I have tried all the others in the past but this CMS is truly special. The dashboard is where everything happens such as file management, page design, site configuration and security settings.
Editing pages in C5 is made easy with the in-page editing features. I am currently in the process of building a system for a client who wanted the end result to be an easily updateable system which is easy to update and maintain. I am sure C5 is the best tool for the job. Read more…
