Crew 12 website

Client: HyperIsland AB (Karlskrona, Sweden)

Every crew at Hyper Island makes a website to promote themselves. Crew 12 actually has two of them: one is made in Flash and optimized for broadband connection and the other one is text version with exactly the same information, but fewer calories. And that's what I worked on.

Highlights

Basically, what you can see here is made by me. In the beginning there was a Photoshop file with design layout from our design group and a few simple guidelines to follow. So I had to create semantically correct layout structure, cut the images, write CSS and then add PHP backend which talks to mySQL database and XML and then few JavaScript-based eye-candies.

And in the end it turned out to valid xHTML 1.0 (Transitional) code, friendly both for visitors and search engines, easy and pretty logical to browse, with quite a few JavaScript amusements like slideshow (which are non-essential in a way that it won't break anything if you have JS disabled).

The outcome might look a bit simple, but that's exactly what the text version is for. You can always take a look at Flash version which will work the best on broadband connection.
