I will be updating the website soon.  to give you a little taste I will upload a sample of the upcoming banner.  There will be neat effects going into it and there will be a more streamlined visual effect.

Cheers!

I am also working with apple lawn to keep their site current.  While I am not doing any redesign so to speak I will be updating the existing website to be more SEO compliant and keep the services he offers more congruent with the seasons.  This is also a service I offer.  Right now for a limited time I will do a quarterly update on web sites for 1 year for a simple 240$ fee. This is a great opportunity to get work done on your site for a discounted price and to have me make sure your site is up to date with images, links and pages that you want to display only seasonally.

I recently finished up Stone House Mixes, for a client.  The site features a large store, featuring wholesale and retail pricing for both.  The Home page is fresh with an exciting rotating ad of her products and four cutaway boxes that feature information about her site.  There are several contact forms on the site as well.  One of them is done with gravity forms and is quite nice, the other three are designed to send information to her capsule and mailchimp accounts.  These are her whole sale , distributer (sic) and fundraiser forms.  These forms also feature a honeypot field instead of captcha for bot validation.

Whats a honeypot field?  As you know when a bot fills out a form it fills every field out and doesn’t really care about the css that handles the form.  With the honeypot, it sees a field that the rest of the browsing populace can’t (because it is hidden like a ninja). The form is prevalidated by javascript to check if there is a value in the field that shouldn’t have one. If there is no value, the form goes through if there is a value, the form fails to send.

Later next month I will be creating a database form for her fundraiser site that will feature a way for people to enter their fundraiser order online and submit it that way.   This will be a from scratch endeavor and will take a bit of MySQL and PHP programming.
