Drupal

Drupal is a very powerful Open Source Content Management System, which can be used for creating websites, online communities, social networking sites and web applications. It's what powers this website, and it's one of my preferred systems for many projects.

Jeroen Coumans07/2003

Of course, as webdesigner one of the most grateful, time-consuming and challenging pieces is one’s own website. I’ve gone through quite a few iterations, as you can see here. I tried to learn from my mistakes in each version, incorporating new insights, techniques and of course changing requirements. I’ve always tried to experiment with various colour schemes, layout variations and typography, in varying degrees of succes. Still, each version is a reflection of my best capabilities as web designer at certain points in time.

Spereco03/2008

Another partnership with Henk Baetsen is the new Spereco website. Henk provided the design, while I did the Drupal implementation and theming. Since Spereco has a fairly extensive product catalog, we decided to use the taxonomy module for organizing all products in various facets. The taxonomy_menu module is used to provide a fly-out menu of the main product categories, while product qualities are searchable through the use of the taxonomy browser module. We also made heavy use of the image module for photo management. I even created a Drupal module specifically for this website, which is quite a feat for a non-programmer such as myself.

Bratislava Insider04/2007

The Slovakian Senza Limiti had a design and Drupal website for their new portal, but nobody who could implement the Drupal theme. On a tight deadline I brushed up the design and created the Drupal theme. The owner of the website, Tobias Ratschiller (author of several PHP books and the popular PhpMyAdmin), has written a Drupal casestudy on the Drupal website.
