Our Portfolio

After considering the creation of Channel Islands website portals for several years, hypertexture has recently begun developing Fudje and Fudgg - a pair of websites dedicated to the bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey.

Both websites are currently in their infancy, providing simple one page portals to regularly updated news, weather and tidal information together with a selection of useful links in a clean and simple interface. Further features will be added to both Fudje and Fudgg in due course.

We have chosen to use the Drupal CMS as the foundation to these sites, which will provide the flexibility required for the many proposed elements of the project.

As well as supporting access by a wide variety of web-browsers, a recent addition to the Fudjg websites has been the inclusion of support for the sites on Apple's iPhone and iTouch devices.

These websites are currently under development.

The Channel Islands Family History Society contacted hypertexture to redesign their existing website following an attack on the old site by hackers.

After recovering data lost during the attack using the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, we developed a design for the new website using the Drupal CMS, which is now hosted with hypertexture.

As part of our ongoing work with the Société Jersiaise, hypertexture was commissioned with the development of the web interfaces for the Société's Photographic Archive and Library databases.

Both databases utilised the latest versions of Adlib's museum and library database software, with the Photographic Archive database having been upgraded from a previous version.

The Photographic Archive and Library installations were both heavily customised by hypertexture to utilise the design of the new Société Jersiaise website, and in the case of the Photographic Archive, data records were linked to the Société's online shop to allow direct purchasing of prints from the archive.

During the build-up to the 2008 Jersey elections, I created a website using the hypertexture Content Management System to collate the available information on the candidates so that I and others could make an informed decision on polling day.

Demonstrating our SEO coding techniques, the Jersey Elections 2008 website appeared on the first page of Google for the keyword combination of 'jersey elections' within a week of the site going online.

A recent project has been the creation of a simple website for the local charity, the Jersey One World Group, using the hypertexture Content Management System together with our hosting services.

Ex-Libris Books contacted hypertexture to request the creation of a facility to edit the content of their website themselves without recourse to a web-designer each time an alteration to the site was required.

As well as providing new hosting services for Ex-Libris Books, we have re-worked their existing site to utilise the hypertexture Content Management System so that they now have complete control over the content of their website.

hypertexture was recently commissioned with the redevelopment of the website of the Société Jersiaise to provide a unified and consistent design using the Joomla! content management system.

In keeping with our philosphy of clean coding and accessible designs, we have implemented a modified version of the Joomla! CMS known as a8eJoomla, together with a number of customised extensions.

Features of the new Société Jersiaise website include Photo Galleries, an Events Calendar, an upgraded Discussion Forum, an improved Shop and multi-lingual support.

Peace Not War is a non-profit cooperative based in London that distributes compilation albums of pro-peace music to raise funds for international peace groups.

hypertexture has been assisting Peace Not War with all of the online aspects of their work since 2005. In that time, we have:

• Consolidated the cooperative's data
• Implemented a custom MySpace profile
• Overseen the transition to a new hosting provider
• Overhauled the design of the Peace Not War website
• Successfully promoted the cooperative on Facebook

Future development is focused on a custom implementation of the Drupal CMS to create a dynamic multimedia website that promotes the aims of the cooperative to a wider audience.

These websites are currently under development.

myFamily is a genealogy website for my own family that hypertexture has recently commenced. The foundation for the website is a deployment of The Next Generation genealogy software, which we will be customising and populating with existing genealogical and multimedia materials of my extended family.

This website is currently under development.
