We’ve worked on a lot of projects. Here is an ongoing list of what we’re working on, what we plan to be working on, or other general info about what we’re up to that we think you should know about.

Created the website for Peak Content Solutions. Hand-coded and implemented based on an existing design. Visit this website.
Coded the re-skin of the One 2 One Network website based on an in-house design. Created the XHTML/CSS in a way that was easily modifiable by the end client (in Coldfusion). It was a fun project and turned out fantastic. Visit this website.
Reskinned the American Bang myspace page with an in-house design. Significantly cleaned up and reorganized the entire page as well. Visit their myspace.
After several weeks of learning, hard work, and dedication, The Music, The Message is live. The site was built based on some design work by a friend, but completely recreated to work within Drupal. The result? Judge for yourself: Visit The Music, The Message.
Working and learning Drupal in two months wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. Re-themed the entire theme / website for Tyler Hilton’s official website by working based on the existing Drupal theme. Worked through several stages of QA to achieve exactly what the artist / management wanted. Visit this website.
In the first of (hopefully) many projects to come working in a partnership with Cohn Marketing, made several simple and complex changes to the Roux company website.
I’m working on developing a website in the highly wonderful, vastly powerful Drupal, and I have to admit, it’s truly wonderful. I’ve spent some 80 hours building a website from the ground up and I am eager to unleash it on the world for all its fury.
One struggle I ran into that I thought I might share with the world was involving views and arguments. Here was the scenario: I had user pages, and wanted to simply list their content types in a nice indexed list below their profile with pagination. Simple enough, right? Not for me. After struggling and stalking tens of websites on Google, I came to the conclusion that my problem was not necessarily with Pathauto, but with the context I was working with.
The argument I was looking for in this situation was the “get user ID from path.” On a side note: Pathauto, in the end, was able to pull the ID from the path, despite the fact that, intuitively, I thought I wanted the “get user name from path,” which seemed to be the most obvious way.
Where I really ran into the problem was with the context I was trying to pull the argument from. By simply inserting a single argument in the “arguments” section of views, I was not being specific enough. Since my users all live at user/username , I realized I needed to insert a “Global: Null” argument and provide the default argument of “user” for the first argument. Then, I inserted the “get user from URL” option and, Viola!, it worked in the preview pane. Inserted as a block on my user pages, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Drupal might be the best thing that has happened to me in the last few months, and I’m eager to learn and explore more as I work with it.
Fixed improper display issues with a banner on Never Shout Never’s myspace page. Visit their myspace page.
