    January 2007 – March 2007 (3 months)

    Responsibility

    HTML content creation for government sites. Job requests from internal government clients. Job times varies from 10 minutes to several days. A little bit of CSS, JavaScript, and server-side scripting.

    Constraints

    Strong focus on semantic and valid markup. Quality control user scripts were run in Opera to review code to ensure markup met government standards.

    Sites

    …and some small sub sites

  5. Aspedia

    September 2004 – December 2006 (2 years, 3 months) - http://aspedia.net/

    Responsibility

    I would receive a PSD from the designer and slice it into optimised images. The designer also provided any Flash content. I would create a copy of our CMS product to create the new site. I would then modify the CSS and HTML to match the design. I would also configure menus and pages ready for client to add content via a WYSIWYG editor.

    My other role was to develop the CMS product (based on PostNuke) and templates (Smarty) that were used to power the sites. Most of the sites were using a shared code backend and their own database.

    Constraints

    Short time frames. Small sites being being churned out in a production line situation. Quantity was far more important than quality. This was part of the reason for using a table based layout. Themes for PostNuke CMS.
