Aces High Performance Charts

Silicon Chisel — Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000

This is a nifty little package I put together using a CSV parser to grind through plane performance data and a slick Flash-based charting package. It allows players of the MMOG “Aces High” to compare their favorite fighter planes in a variety of categories.

JackRabbitTheMovie.com

Silicon Chisel — Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000

I just finished a little project for a friend; building a site for his upcoming Indy movie (hey, I’m 5 miles from Hollywood, what do you expect). It’s fairly basic, but it does use Exposé for the various photo galleries.

LTN was a start-up local interest TV network for the Los Angeles area. With 9 shows broadcasting new episodes each week there’s a lot of content. The content team had 6 people creating articles and media. I chose Joomla as our CMS foundation for the site.

Joomla goes Hollywood … www.ltnla.com

Mark Miller — Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000

LTN is a new local interest TV network for the Los Angeles area. With 9 shows broadcasting new episodes each week there’s a lot of content. The content team has 6 people creating articles and media. I chose Joomla as our CMS foundation for the site.

Some details:

Running Joomla 1.04
Template based on Jamboworks Global Biz
Uses SEF Advance

Custom modules for hooking up with phpadsnew (4 zones, sensitive to the branch of the site)
Custom modules for “home page” and “side bar” videos - these tie into a
broadcast database and video library which was also custom coded
Custom module for showing the daily schedule on the home page
Custom module for linking out to “Adult Content” … this brings up an age
verification dialog before proceding to the link (you can download this
from SF).

The site has been up for less than two months and already has over
550 articles of content and 250 clips of FLV video. It’s currently up
to about 1000 visitors and 35000 pages per day in traffic. I built the
whole deal in about 6 weeks.

SpeedGeezers.com Gateway v4

Mark Miller — Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000

I finished work on the new gateway for the sim-racing enthusiast site this weekend. It’s basically a hand-coded XML-driven directory of all the leagues and projects we host on the server, plus a nice open-source news script I integrated. The look and feel was kept very clean and subtle so it is more contemporary. [ Link ]

SpeedGeezers.com

The follow-on to vPaddock, this second-generation portal uses a combination of stand-alone technologies loosely coupled into look-and-feel. The technology in use includes the Land Down Under website engine, Gallery, IkonBoard, and the 4images media manager. Links between the major components from each other provide a way to conveniently navigate around; and using the best-of-breed open-source components for each area provides better overal functionality.

One interesting twist here is the use of the 4images picture gallery for a download manager. 4images supports a wide variety of media types - including sounds, animation, and compressed archives. It also supports the ability to attach thumbnails previews to non-image content. Since most game add-ons are audio-visual in some way, these features seemed an ideal fit for the needs of the community.
