Since starting here, the entire website has undergone a major visual and behind-the-scenes technical overhaul. A picture says a thousand words. Here are two pictures that say more than I could about the re-design. Before: http://brandon-sachs.com/img/thinkvacuums-old.png Current: http://brandon-sachs.com/img/thinkvacuums-new.png A co-worker handled a large majority of the redesign and the markup. I helped with any advanced CSS, and all Javascript/PHP. This is the project that inspired my jQuery.stickyBar plugin. I designed and built the database and management system (TVDMS) from the ground up, which handles everything on the site: adding and changing products info and pricing, mapping products to URLs, an SEO manager, an upload manager, a database staging and syncing between development machines, as well as a user logging system for accountability. It is securely remotely-accessible for immediate changes on-the-go.
