DESIGN: Graphical Enhanced Resume - Hollis

Seven Places Productions — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 21:21:16 +0000

A new product/service offered here at Seven Places Productions … graphically enhanced resumés. This new venture was brought to us by a long-time friend, Rayden Hollis, who was interested in creating something outside the traditional, white paper resumé box.

This is one of 5 available templates we will be offering for customization. If you are a prospective employer, and you have in front of you a piece of white paper and this graphically enhanced resumé, which one is going to grab your attention?

If you would like to get your resumé out of the traditional white paper box, send us a message or come back shortly (as we put the final touches on our templates) and we’ll have a link to our 5 available customizable templates where you can choose a template that fits your need, or we can also build a totally customizable graphically enhanced resumé.

WEB: American International College

Seven Places Productions — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 16:36:03 +0000

The Career Institute of American International College was a cooperative project between 7Places and PlattForm. Originally intended to be a simple static paged site, this project quickly increased in scope as the needs grew to a dynamic content replacement system.

Drupal was chosen for this site as its content management system. Drupal provides flexibility in a multitude of areas on the site where each section of the site can be applied to specific pages easily through a backend admin section. Drupal integration is new to 7Places, and much was learned through this process.

Also scheduled for round 2 implementation is a dimensional video that will reside on the homepage. Users will be able to interact with students represented on the homepage and hear a quick version of their testimony about the school and their field of study.

IE Version Madness!

Seven Places Productions — Tue, 06 May 2008 18:50:02 +0000

Have you been beat up and worn down over all the different versions of Internet Explorer that PC people are still using out there?

It sure does make it tough to “test in all browsers” when one of those browsers has 17 different active versions … which all different from each other.

Have you already downloaded the latest IE7 version and overwrote your DLL registry, but you still need to be able to test for past versions of IE that (for some reason) people are still using?

ENTER: Multiple IEs.

Multiple IEs is a program that downloads and installs IE versions for PC all the way back to IE 3.0! You can run each one independent of the other so that testing is a breeze. This is brilliant.

Now if Microsoft would just be so kind as to force its users to update to the latest version … OR … and I know this is crazy … at least create IE versions’ engines to render similarly!

Go learn more about Multiple IEs, or just download Multiple IEs and get to testing.

Then, go get firefox and spread the love.

WEB: First Baptist Church | O’Fallon

Seven Places Productions — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 12:58:14 +0000

First Baptist Church | O’Fallon (www.firstofallon.com, formerly www.fbcoministry.org) is coming off a multi-year run of using a template-driven, non-SEO friendly, large ID strings in the links site that had table-based, invalid, depricated code.

We updated their look with a custom graphical user interface (GUI), an integrated content management system using Wordpress as its engine, custom programming to rotate or switch custom header images based on ministry section, programming to pull specific side navigation elements based on page viewed, custom SlideShowPro integration for event listings on homepage, custom news scroller sitewide that pulls feed from certain category, new podcasting and vidcasting options and multiple custom contact or registration forms.

The mission of First Baptist Church | O’Fallon is to lead people to faith in Christ and growth in Christ-likeness. We believe Jesus Christ desires a personal relationship with each person on earth - including you! First Baptist Church | O’Fallon simply wants to help lead you in a growing, personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
