I have just finished up a fun project for the University of British Columbia. It’s a website that highlights several student stories from around the Okanagan campus. For this project we used WordPress and each story is setup using posts, that way we can create post categories and group the stories as the website grows. The site features a lot of custom CSS which I love working on. Here is a link:
I am happy to announce a new offering available for sale on Graphicriver.net
It’s a badge/sticker/logo making kit that is useful for membership rankings, or logo design, etc.
Fully customizable flat colour ranking badges for use on websites, iphone apps, forums, blogs, clans, etc. Anywhere that you want to show different levels of achievement, rank, or experience, or just want to have a nice badge for something, or even use as a logo. There are literally thousands of combinations to choose from. File is setup at 300dpi, CMYK.
I am constantly thinking up what I think at the time are amazing ideas that would have the potential to change the world, the problem I run into is that I realize just how huge an undertaking some of these grandiose ideas of mine are and giveup somewhere in the dreaming stage, there are a couple however that I have made some very recent large strides forward, and so we will just have to see where I end up with them. If you have a combination of real passion (not the flighty kind), ingenuity, know how, a proven market, and just plain hard work, I know there really isn’t anything that is impossible.
Having said all that, I just recently had a great idea for a website that would provide a needed valid service to thousands of people in a specific niche market (I’ll reveal more about this at a later date). The best thing about this latest idea is how really easy it is to set it up on a technological sense of things. Marketing, exposure, and just getting people to actually use the website is a whole different kettle of fish that I will get into in a later blog post.
The core of my latest venture is simple, allow people within a specific demographic, or niche market the ability to easily add their own information in form of a classified ad, or listing. People would be able to create two types of listings, looking for X, or offering X in a variety of categories. There would have to be options for free and paid classified ads, and it should be very simple and easy for a person to put their offering on the website and edit it afterwards if needed. Sounds simple enough but I am not a hot shot silicon valley programmer that eats functions and database fields for breakfast, I get by alright, but to create something like this from scratch would be a big wooly mammoth undertaking.
So what does a guy with a great idea, and the development budget similar to a quarter of the GDP per capita of Zimbabwe do? He looks for a pre-built solution. Something that will work out of the box with limited fussing and development. After literally a month of searching, reading reviews, buying some things that just didn’t work the way they were hyped up to, I found ClassiPress. ClassiPress is a Classifieds ad website software, or theme that transforms WordPress into a feature rich full on classified ad site. I purchased it to setup my latest website and have been quite impressed with it so far. It is easy to setup, has tons of options, and best of all is very easy for my website customers to use.

That’s it! WordPress should now be installed.
