For my diploma project, I built the Extreme Martial Arts & Fitness Centre (XMAFC) website. It's a W3C standards validated HTML/CSS site, with an OO PHP/MySQL backend.

The site is built in a manner which allows the gym employees to:

  • Add/Edit/Delete information about the gym's fighters
  • Update the gym's timetable
  • Write news/blog articles about the gym & marital arts industry
  • Upload images to be used onsite - in articles, or to replace existing images

Skills demonstrated:

  • HTML/CSS
  • Photoshop
  • Custom Javascript/jQuery/AJAX, written in Object Notation (JSON)
  • PHP
  • MySQL

For the Extreme Martial Arts & Fitness Centre (XMAFC) website, I designed a custom CMS. The staff at XMAFC gym aren't very computer-savvy - their web use is restricted primarily to facebook, and a few core sites. I felt that the staff who would update the XMAFC website might be overwhelmed by Wordpress or other, existing content management systems.

With that in mind, my CMS includes the following features:

  • straightforward, un-cluttered layout, mimicking familiar (to the client) iPhone app appearance
  • WYSIWYG text editor, which allows for AJAX image upload to the site's database, and instant youtube video embed (without refreshing the page)
  • Add/Edit/Delete user database
  • click-and-change timetable editor
  • intuitive layout, which staff can understand without any training

Skills demonstrated:

  • XHTML/CSS
  • Custom Javascript/jQuery/AJAX, written in Object Notation (JSON)
    • Customised AJAX image uploader
    • Custom WYSIWYG text editor, with video embedder and image add/edit/delete, linked to site's database
    • Custom validation scripts
  • PHP
  • MySQL


Other skills - printed posters,
& illustrations!

I have designed print posters for local kickboxing shows. Ususally, I use Adobe InDesign for layout, and Adobe Photoshop for image manipulation/editing.

However, for a couple of posters I've just used Photoshop.


Illustrations

Below are some examples of illustrations I've done. I enjoy pencil and ink-pen drawing, tattoo design, and comic-art/animation inspired works.
