Truglaze.com is a website design I recently did for a client. Built with Ruby on Rails, it consists of a full custom CMS with a Flash Application to showcase all his selected photos from a portfolio component.

I just launched my girlfriends hair salon website Floasis Hair Salon. Looks preeetty good so far even in all browsers. It’s a Ruby on Rails site of course. Nothing too crazy, just a simple interface that is easy to find what your looking for. How all sites should be.

I’ve made a cool drop down menu system using Prototype and Scriptaculous javascript libraries that utilizes some of the cool effects to create an animated menu system.

Anyway here is droplicious v.2.1 I won’t be putting up new versions here anymore. It will now be at github (see link below… right below)

Please comment any bugs or other questions on this post, or submit issues at github Thanks!

I forgot but I did a Flash header that dynamically loads images from a folder into the Flash application. I also did a cool thing where the Tigh-Na-Mara logo randomly scatters across the swf when you move your mouse over it. It’s kinda cool and fun. There were some dynamic gradient fades between the images but since Carlos (Fellow student and Tigh-na-mara webdesigner) needed the swf for Flash Player version < 8 the fades wouldn’t work because they weren’t supported for that version.

I just finished a small project for a friend of mine. I made a sweet flash game, where you try and shoot down helmets while being timed. After you shoot all the helmets you enter your initials and email address for a chance to win a free Darren Berrecloth signed, signature Deviant Helmet from Specialzied! Well you have to have the low score but it’s a fun time anyway!

I used Flash and Php together for one of the first times and had some fun. Actually the game was just a modified version of a project I did in school earlier this year. It didn’t have the php/mysql funtionality to log scores, but meow it does!
