Well its been a long time since I’ve posted my latest activities. Mainly because I landed a job with the Recommended Agency Register (part of the Carnyx Group) last year. I am now the lead developer for this project. Lots of work, lots of code, lots of water (with a dash of coffee now and again) :) Just how I like it.

I have been very busy fixing long-running issues here and adding a tonne of new functionality since we switched over to the new version of the site last July. I am constantly working to improve on whats there and add even newer and shinier features.

Also my lovely girlfriend and I moved into a flat in Glasgow which totally cuts down on the traveling costs (shame it’s slightly offset by the now greater living costs!).

Oi, you!

Adding a photo on a page

Well a wee while since I last updated here. Working with Planet Groucho again we created a bespoke site and admin section for The Sithean B&B. I utilised Codeigniter and jQuery and wrote everything to allow simple content creation and editing and quick photo uploading and cropping.

Another project I finished before Christmas, my game - CPC World. This was done using the Flixel framework, all code, graphics and music by myself (cept the lovely earth created by the lovely Dawn and one of the tracks created by the mystical Ramisco Maki Maki Rocking Horse www.ramiscomakimaki.com)

The home page - the blog

In the admin section,creating a new post

Logging out nicely with jQuery UI

Just thought I would show what else I’ve been up to - recently finished the newest version of the Planet Groucho Records website - www.pgrecords.co.uk - go check it out. I used CodeIgniter with Doctrine for the backend and jQuery and jQuery UI for all the nice interactive goodness (mainly in the admin side of things at the moment).

Will be tinkering with it some more and adding more fluidness and also a mobile version (most likely using jQTouch).

Just thought I should add something as it’s been a while! Have been busy with many projects but thought people might wanna see a game I am working on, all coding and artwork created by my fair hands. Should be released soon!

The last screengrab shows an incomplete level - still got background artwork to create :)
