  • Urban Capture update – Google v3 clustering

    This small update to some previous custom Geo Mashup work is the first example in the wild of my recent clustering solution for v3 of the Google Maps API using Marker Clusterer Plus.

  • Washington Foreign Law Society site

    These nice folks needed a fairly simple site on a strict schedule and budget, and looked to Vernal for help. It just required some theme programming and integration work from me. They like the results: Thank you again for all of your hard work on this, and especially for working within our budget. Fabulous work!…

  • Zinn Education Project v2.5

    A happy Vernal Creative client hired us again to do a revamp of their site, focusing especially on the teaching materials browser. The new implementation uses isotope to filter and sort materials in four taxonomies, making Ajax requests as you go for more materials that fit your current criteria. WP Engine handles the growing traffic…

  • Open Data Reno at Hack4Reno

    I had a great time this weekend at the 2nd annual Hack4Reno working on Open Data Reno, a hub to identify both available data pertinent to Reno and unfulfilled needs for data. The site is built on a WordPress theme started by Colin Loretz at last year’s hackathon, and this year I jumped in along…

  • Keshet

    My best challenge for this compendium of Jewish LGBT resources was the highly-classified equality guide geo search.

  • Summit Foundation and Fund

    This site needed some crafty template programming to give the appearance of a split personality – one site with two distinct styles. Some jQuery transition effects and a slideshow round out the custom functionality.

  • YBCA:You Mobile and Small Screen Friendly Launch

    Vernal Creative has updated the YBCA:You arts experience sharing site to enhance the experience on small screens. From my perspective this was mostly about making sure the jQuery-powered features worked well. The full size site uses some modals, which don’t work well on small screens, so I reworked those to be a sort of pseudo-modal…

  • Focus on Land in Africa – Flash rescue

    We (Vernal creative) convert the old Flash website to WordPress. Using AJAX we’re able to preserve and even enhance the interactivity, while reaping the mobile and search engine benefits of WordPress.

  • Namati – Innovations in Legal Empowerment

    This is my first BuddyPress site, made once again in cahoots with vernal creative and free range studios. The social functions let member organizations share ideas and tools, while non-member visitors may browse the organization directory, tools, publications, blog, news, and more. The interface sports a couple of varieties of jQuery sliders, data tables, custom…
