Donna Morin
Live Website
Challenge/Opportunity

Donna wanted to showcase her artwork to colleagues and potential customers.

Scope of Project

We were retained to develop a simple website that would provide visitors with the ability to easily navigate Donna’s large collection of images.

The intent of this particular website design was for the design, itself, to be as “invisible as possible” so as to not distract from the artwork.

Solution

The website contains a simple list of image categories, with two basic presentation styles. In one style, the artwork is presented as pairs of paintings, with two images and brief descriptions. The other style is an automatic image rotator, with thumbnails across the bottom. A subtle progress meter shows the visitor the time remaining until the next image is displayed.

Built-In Website Features


Responsive Design

All websites hosted on Blue Core CMS™ are cross-device and cross-browser compatible. Each website is integrated with jQuery 2.x, Bootstrap 3.x and supplemental JavaScript and CSS libraries. These open source libraries provide a useful balance between support for modern mobile-friendly website features and backwards compatibility with older browsers.

Informational Pages

Informational pages house static content on the website that may be permanent or routinely updated. The self-service administrative features on Blue Core CMS™ make it easy to safely perform these updates yourself. Alternatively, our support team can perform updates for you, and typically at no additional cost.

Rotators

A rotator can contain images, announcements or any other content relevant to your audience. The moving elements keep content fresh and engaging and also highlight key messages or value propositions about your business.

A specialized editor in Blue Core CMS™ makes it easy to add,remove, and arrange slides in rotators. You can also schedule slides to appear an disappear on predetermined dates.

Forms

Choose anything from a basic contact form to a full custom application form that can be submitted online.

The forms delivered via Blue Core CMS™ are easily customized. Each form is backed by a database where the data provided by your website visitors is stored permanently. When visitors submit a form, the data is automatically written to the database, then sent to you and/or others in your organization as an email message.

Advanced security features built into our Forms component prevent automated form spam from being submitted through our system.
