Winning with Simplicity

Nov 24, 2009 · Design · CSS · XHTML · AJAX · jQuery

In the pursuit of looking sophisticated it is easy to loose sight of the focus and clarity that makes up a really effective marketing message. The fact is, some of the highest earning websites I've ever seen have also been the simplest.

The folks at NU-Finish asked us to build them a foundation they could add to for years to come. Their needs were simple but immediate.

Transforming Design into Reality

Oct 30, 2009 · XHTML

We do very little designing at Joe's Media, preferring instead to leave it to more talented artists like Matt West from CodeGeek.net and Midnight Oil Graphics.

Translating those designs into great looking, valid, search engine friendly, browser compatible, fast websites is our real specialty.

Consulting and Troubleshooting

Oct 27, 2009 · ModX · CSS · HTML · jQuery · JavaScript

When the good folks at Floating Point Media accepted a contract on a very tight schedule, it was our honor to dive in and tackle some of the technical challenges.

The job was to convert three existing sites to a new design and add new content. Each site was built into the ModX content management system which, while not exactly our style, proved to be a pretty capable system.

Updated Sites are Trusted Sites

Oct 27, 2009 · CSS · HTML

I don't know about you but I definitely place more trust in companies that keep their online information up to date.

If you think of your website as part of your sales team then it stands to reason that you want your site to give current information. If not, you risk misleading your customers which damages their trust—just as if they had been misled by an actual sales person.

Event Site with Unlimited Potential

Oct 09, 2009 · ExpessionEngine · CSS · XHTML

It is always a pleasure to build a website from such a lavish design as this one!

This site is much more than just eye-candy, however. It is built on top of an extremely powerful publishing platform known as ExpressionEngine, which also happens to power the websites of several Fortune 100 companies and multi-platinum rock bands.

WordPress Excerpt with Images

Sep 04, 2009 · WordPress · PHP

Need a way to highlight recent WordPress entries, complete with images, from a page outside the wordpress directory?

The hard part is already done for you!

CodeGeek Portfolio Marquee

Aug 18, 2009 · CSS · AJAX · jQuery · JavaScript

Most of the work we do at Joe's Media is re-sold to clients through design firms. Occasionally, though, we are honored with the opportunty to do work directly for a designer and this is one such example.

There are some subtle but important benefits to this particular piece of code.

Market Reports for Midwestern Cattle

Jun 20, 2009 · jQuery · JavaScript

Ever wonder what you can get from an expert JavaScript programmer in only an hour? It is with great pleasure that I present you this example!

These folks needed a way to pull up-to-date reports from other sites and present them in a convenient, attractive window. Naturally, switching from one report to another is done without reloading the page.

King Loveland Automotive

May 28, 2009 · Design · Cobalt Nitra · CSS · HTML

How much fortitude does it take to have your website professionally reworked when your entire industry is on the brink of collapse? I have no idea but I'm betting it takes quite a lot!

It took a large, inter-disciplinary team to put this site together. We at Joe's Media were responsible for turning the design into code and implementing it in the content management system (CMS).

DW Design Group Photo Gallery

Mar 16, 2009 · AJAX · jQuery · JavaScript

Even a small amount of interactivity can really bring a website to life.

It is important to remember that photo galleries are meant to showcase the contents of the gallery. Any user interface must be clean, intuitive, and fast. Our challenge was to compliment this beautifully crafted, contemporary design with exactly the right amount of movement.

I believe we succeeded.
