- cms website (Joomla!) with custom designed template (xhtml, CSS, Actionscript)
Jo approached me to design a webpage for her that is simple and modern in style and offers her an easy way of updating the content by herself (including images of her latest work).
I decided to use a Jommla! CMS and designed a very minimal template. To give the website more functionality, I included a newsletter component (Acajoom) and Image Gallery Component (Ignite 0.9).
In addition, to give the visitor of Jo's website a good overview of her artwork I designed a flash gallery.

"Being an artist I needed a website that would be set up in a professional manner with a modern, creative look but one which I could then handle easily and change myself as events unfolded. This problem had always seemed overwhelming to deal with and I had procrastinated about getting a website for years!
My experience with Christian Geyer from Interface Creation has been great! Christian listened to my problem and came back to me very quickly with a solution which worked. He set up all the initial look and background information on the website and then taught me simple instructions so that I can add information and images as I need to. He also assisted me in finding a web host and being included in Google, which has meant people can find me!
He understood my needs and then moved quickly to get me organised and up on the Web within a month of starting. This was not only exciting but saved me time and money!
I have recommended him to others! He's excellent."
