I created a new website for a local political party in The Netherlands. I used Drupal 4.6 with the bluemarine theme. Only I changed the color to green, so I guess this would be the greenmarine theme :)
Multi-languages site for introduction of Yixing teapot.
Yixing clay teapots are renowned world-wide for being the best vessels for brewing tea. The unique clay from which they are made is extremely porous and absorbs the delicate flavors of the tea, thus making each brew more flavorful with every use.
Yixing clay teapots will enhance the taste of tea.
I have close to 1500 pictures online. I have chosen Acidfree to present them, as it was a perfect solution for me.
The worst pain was to create those many path aliases to make sure that google does not get too upset over the transfer.
I transfered my Photo Journal from Blogger to Drupal relatively easily using this script: http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/sandbox/junyor/import...
It worked without a hitch. The reason I lost my comments was, that I forgot to set the user permissions for anonymous comments. Since I didn't have a whole lot, I didn't redo this step
Not all of the origninal files could be represented by path aliases. Since my website was static, an album had multiple index files (eg. index2.html, index3.html). I wanted to forward them using .htaccess. It took me quite some time to find out, that mod rewrite with Drupal is a little different. You have to terminate each rewrite with [L] so that the line:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
does not get executed. So my mod-rewrites look something like this:
Well, it took 2 and a half months, but we finally made it to launch with broadbandsports.com. Through the entire process I've been very pleased with the choice to use Drupal as our main development platform, and I hope to have a number of patches and module features (3rd party folksonomies, anyone?) passed to code owners in the next few months.
I just put up Perfect Shine Every Time Window Cleaning for a friend in San Francisco. He needed a site fast and cheap that he could maintain without having to learn HTML or hire a designer every time he wanted to make a small change in the text or something. A job for Drupal, obviously! So I just took one of the distro Drupal templates, tweaked the colors and the layout a bit, threw in img_assist and TinyMCE, created a few pages and let him go at the rest. Then I went back in for cleanup.
Not much here its the basic pushbutton theme, but would love ideas and suggestions to improve the site and its design, also any help or contributions are welcome.
