The website was first designed in Photoshop, then it was all brought over to the CONVIO eCRM and CMS system.  CSS was used a lot to style and structure the look and feel of the website.

The site was revamped with a new design, going for a more organic and earthy and imaginative feel, all in Photoshop.  The rest of the site was constructed using PHP and a lot of includes.  Because the site owner is trained in web development, there was no need for a content management system.

Everybody is into green these days, with the challenges happening in our world today.  We have issues ranging in global warming, air pollution, acidic waters, the list goes on and on.

The Green Clean Guy site’s mission is to provide tips, techniques and information to it’s visitors who want to make their home lives more greener and how they can also contribute to this growing industry.

The site is built using the Drupal Content Management System, along with numerous modules.  Also, plenty of PHP and CSS work was done to get the look and feel proper on the site.

A lot of planning had to go into the site.  It needed to be set up in such a way that it would encourage subscription to the monthly enewsletter and that writing articles would be simple enough that it can be done from anywhere in the world.  The subscription system, going back to this, needed to be set up on the site’s server, instead of branching off to a third party service that handled all opt-in mailling and autoresponder activities.

It also started out with initial sketches of a cartoon Character, which was scanned, colored in Adobe Photoshop and then constructed as a template using CSS and PHP.

The site is still young but has been getting a steady stream of traffic through article marketing, which the writer provides.

The exhibition features photographs of those touched by cancer: mothers, daughters, fathers, sons, sisters, brothers, friends and family capturing our hearts, inspiring us with their stories and engaging us in a conversation about cancer.

With two in five Canadians facing a diagnosis of cancer in their lifetime, it is more critical than ever to raise awareness about the disease and the impact it has on the lives of Canadians.

The backend technology used for Cancer Connections is CONVIO, which is an eCRM and CMS system.  The Society uses this system for it’s ease of use, flexibility and features.

Landings Media collaborated with the Society staff in the design and development of the site.  It also features a gallery of photos that were submitted by Canadians coast to coast.

Landings Media continues to help Artists and Musicians put their best foot forward.  This time, the power goes back into the hands of the Artist in such a way that they are able to update their own website from anywhere in the world.

“Working on the Chyrell Samson website was a joy and a pleasure” marks Rodney Ronquillo, Project Manager and Designer of the website.  Now Chyrell can update her website’s blog, change the events listings, add photos to her very own gallery, upload or link up online videos, link songs to the site.  The possibilities are absolutely limitless.”

One of the most important features for the website is the spam security feature, which requires guests to answer a visual question, in order to prevent software-automatic spam posts.  The previous website didn’t have this feature, so the blogs would be saturated with thousands of spam comments.  Once the security feature was implemented, the posts were reduced to zero, so that only real human posts could get through.

“I like the fact that I can now update my site without the need to contact Landings media, unless it is very necessary” says Chyrell.  “Now I can focus more on my performances and artistry and less on trying to get home quick in order to update my website via the ftp and Dreamweaver method.”

Photos were taken in the Philippines and then they were used to create the rest of the site using Photoshop. The Backend force behind the entire site is the Drupal Content Management system. The rest of the site is styled in CSS and constructed in PHP.

The rotating header was created in Adobe Flash, using alpha channels and a few layers. A sound jukebox option will implemented in the next site overhaul, with new customized Drupal modules.

So far, it’s working out.

Another great partnership, Canadian Cancer Society was one of Landings Media’s true Charitable organization clientelle.  The Society was undergoing a transformation in which they were to having Canadians discuss and share with each other about Cancer, and the Society would be in the center of the discussion.

In fact, the Society was able to generate a huge amount of generations, for their Relay For Life event.  It was a huge success.

Landings media collaborated with the Society, by providing Project Management, Web development and design expertise.  The result has been a successful Pan-Canadian internal marketing campaign in which society staff were able to share stories about their experiences with each other.

Another project that Landings media collaborated on was the Cancer Connections Pan-Canadian event, by collaborating with Society staff on a fully functional website that features photography by the Society’s partner, Photosensitive.  Also, Canadians from all across the country provided Black and white photographs for display on the website.

“I really enjoyed working with the Canadian Cancer Society” said Rodney.  “Every project we worked on all helped towards a common goal, which was to ensure that every Canadian would never fear Cancer ever again.”

It looks like it’s working.

C-virtue is a Christian-inspired e-business that offers women fashionable and modest clothing.

C-Virtue was not created over night but neither was Rome. The creation of C-virtue took many personal struggles and obstacles but thank God, we are here.

The founder, Cleoni Crawford, is a multi-talented, artistic, and educated woman of God who realized her talents could be better utilized to serve as an Entrepreneur. Cleoni hopes that C-Virtue will not only offer amazing products and services but inspiration.

When it was time for a revamp and redesign to the website, C-virtue approached Landings media for advice, expertise and solutions.

“Working with Cleoni has been a beautiful partnership”, quotes Rodney.   “After seeing the original site and discussing C-virtue’s new direction and needs, we knew that we could provide a solution that would take Christian Fashion to the next level and C-virtue was the perfect vehicle to work with on that”

Since its launch in April 2009, C-virtue has seen many orders come through its website.  It is now at the point where C-virtue is more busier than ever with their projects.  But what is more appealing to the whole process is that Cleoni can finally update her website from anywhere in the world, without having to use her own laptop if ever or even learning html scripting and coding.   All she has to do is enter either new information, or a new photograph of her latest designs, set it up with pricing information, and then it’s updated right on the spot.  All done within 5-10 minutes.

“C-virtue and Cleoni are a joy to work with” says Rodney.  “I am looking forward to hearing how much sales she has generated from her website, by year’s end.”

So far, it having great faith is helping make things go well for C-virtue.
