Gotta love finishing projects. Although technically this one isn’t done, it has at least launched. Check out the new Pangaea Travel website.
The three windows are, unfortunately, a blantant ripoff of the mootools homepage. The clients liked it a lot, and the attempts I made to rewrite the code were slow and cumbersome. This script works well here and I’m happy with it.
I used some brushes from this Japanese Foliage as watermarks on the child pages. Thanks to DesignFruit, these brushes are beautiful.
The last thing to be done on this site is to replace the static header image on the first page with an interactive flash element. Our idea is a simple game in which a plane will fly over some beautiful natural scenery leaving a trail of pollution, and the user can “clean up” the pollution by turning it into flowers and plants. I was looking forward to building this but we’re swamped here and it’s been put off–hopefully not forever.
In other news I’ve decided to redesign this page. My thought when I built this beta-template was to fit everything in my site on one page. I’ve decided now that there are reasons people don’t do this, and I’m going to simplify everything up a bit. Once I get time. Which probably won’t be for a while. Cheers.
