I have now got round to creating a completely new and far fresher design for my website – it’s a bit more personal and I hope that everyone will like it.

There are still lots of holes and places where I need to put more work into, but I hope that for now there will be enough to keep everyone informed and hopefully also to keep people interested!

Please let me know what you think of the new site – feedback’s always appreciated!

We created a website for the yearbook submissions for the school year 2008-2009. The website was designed in such a way that it could be refreshed and used time and time again with other yeargroups. An administration area was also created, and a help feature was added a few months later, to answer some of the questions the students had.

By the submission deadline, the site had received over 1,200 quotes, 600 stories and 1,300 photo submissions, with people giving very complimentary feedback on the website.

The site had zero downtime and was found to be a very secure design that the students were able to access from both school and home. Teachers were also able to log in and monitor what was being submitted.

A news area on the website also allowed the Yearbook Committee to quickly and easily inform all the students about anything they needed to know, using a built in news system.
