Hi! My name is John Nelson. I own a small photography business in Sioux Falls, SD, called John's Photography. My item for the brag basket: I successfully designed and launched a new website for my business. My new site (shotbyjohn.com) replaces a clunkier, more expensive site.
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays everybody!
John, welcome to the Brag Basket, and congrats on a newer, better, less expensive site!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long time since I posted in the brag basket, but... why not :)
ReplyDeleteBetween today and Christmas, I am launching three new WordPress sites for clients, all built from scratch. Two of those sites were built in less than a week, as I push lots of work out the door in anticipation of a end-of-the-year trip abroad. And not only were they super quick to build, they're creatively some of my best work in awhile, which is really cool :)
My company also recently open-sourced two of our internal projects: Amalia, a content management system "for the rest of us," and Rach5, a "boilerplate" for WordPress themes so you can build them faster. It's our way of giving back!! (I won't put links here, but you can search for both projects on Github, all you developer types)
Hope everyone's holiday and new year festivities are great!
Hello, Chris! Great to see you again! Congratulations on the quick designs, and thank you making your contribution to the open source community. That's a gift to all of us.
