Robots with Style

Posted on by

After two month of design and development, today we launched the updated website for the FIRST Robotics team Systemetric, found at systemetric.org.

This is the first website I have worked on which uses the new Joomla 1.6 CMS. It makes use of many new CSS3 properties, including gradient backgrounds. Custom modules and plugins were also developed for the site to include YouTube videos and YouTube channels in pages, as well as to integrate user login with the Collabtive project management system used by the team.

Long Hot Summer

What can I say, it’s been 30C in Cambridge, great news to some, a bit too hot for my liking. We’ve also seen some excellent tennis from Andy Murray at Wimbledon, with an amazing match on Monday played under the new roof.

I’ve got a few projects I’m working on, including an updated site for Erewash Sound and a new site for the Systemetric robotics team. I’ve just finished off a mobile radio player for Erewash Sound, and it’s an exciting time with their launch on FM radio growing closer. I’m also going to try an bring myself round to updating this site, putting up a few useful articles in the process.

It All Comes to a Close

I may be a few day late in saying this, but those dreaded GCSE exams are finally over :D On the downside, I now have to wait eagerly until late August for the all important results.

On top of that the new Erewash Sound Website finally went live tonight, the aftermath of 7 months of design, coding, recoding and smashing up the computer by both myself and Dan Martin. It was all worth it though, especially as it is arguably one of the best community radio station websites out of all the licensed stations in the UK, and it can only get better over time.
