Recent Work

More details of the following projects coming soon!
Lifestyle Wedding Photography
The best Wedding Photographer deserves the best site to sell his photos.
Have a look at this little site I did for Morgan - I adapted his existing design and added a shop, with a very slick way of viewing the photos and adding them to the basket.
www.lifestyleweddingphotos.co.uk
I've not seen many AJAX shopping baskets/carts, but this is the future.
The site is built with .net 2, MySql and as I said, a little AJAX for the pages -
and yes, with .net 2 you can simply and easily get MySql to work on shared hosting,
so it offers a robust, but low-cost hosting solution.
If you'd like me to add this simple and easy shopping facility
to your wedding photography site, give me a call - I can adapt
existing designs, process and upload photos from CDs, and I'll
even take pay-as-you-go payments, wedding by wedding, so there
are no high up front costs - pay me as you get paid!
Gaffin Associates
I've been working with Gaffin Associates for about 4 years now on their unique Developing People and Recruitment products.
These products use statistical analysis and thousands of hours of research to help companies to recruit the right people, and to develop those people in their roles.
There is a desktop product (VB6, Active Reports, Access) and a web-application (ASP, .net, VB, Active Reports, PostgreSQL) which can be used alone or customised to work in combination.
Various customers have required modification of the products to match their specific purposes, including redesigns, intranet adaptation, language translations and many others.
Customers include various large Hotel chains, official car dealership networks, supermarkets and many other household names from service industries.
Some customers have reported 80% drops in staff turnover after starting using these products. Very satisfying results!
An explanation of how the products work is available from
www.mscassessments.com - I didn't build this flash site, however access to the actual products is strictly controlled by Gaffin Associates.
Tobin Harris
Tobin and I met through work some years ago, recently I've helped out on some of Tobin's projects, including
.net 2 and database work for the NHS, adaptive web spider scheduling and database optimisation for a news resource indexing site.
Tobin is also a freelance Software Developer, and if I'm not quite what you're looking for, try
Tobin's site - tell him I sent you!
0800flowers.com
I had a very long working relationship with 0800flowers.com. I originally turned flowers2send.com on back in 2000, and it was then the UK's first virtual florist.
Since then it grew into a market leader, and during the intervening time I added comprehensive stock control, courier integration, language translations and a raft of new product lines.
