They wanted to replace their previous site as it was hand crafted (by self taught Noel Warham) and it was taking too much effort to update team information and match results.

We worked closely with Ian Pierce and Noel Warham to give the Birkdale United AFC website a great facelift as well as moving it onto a content management system.

There is still some work to do, but, Ian and Noel have taken over all aspects of updating the site (they have literally jumped in with both feet!).

• WordPress
• MySQL Database
• Mandigo Theme

 The site is to promote their new coffee table book.  We have been lucky enough to see a sneak preview of and the images are simply amazing!

Head over to StarVistas.com and take a look – they will be adding more content over the next few weeks. 

Don’t forget to check out all of their deep-space images at newforestobservatory.com

Greg Parker and Noel Carboni wanted a website where they could showcase their deep-sky images and maintain a sense of communication with the rest of the imaging community.  However, they did not want to replicate the various forums that they are already members of.

At the suggestion of Invisage Design, the New Forest Observatory website running a mix of Blog and CMS managed pages.  This allows Greg and Noel to maintain some static content and mix in regular news updates, projects, book reviews and the like.  Lists of posts to categories are also shown on the relevant CMS managed pages (for example: exhibition announcements are listed on the about page).

To keep costs down this website uses the following technologies:

• WordPress
• MySql
• IIS6
• Windows Server 2003

The visual style is based upon the Mandigo theme from OneHertz design.  This theme is extremely popular and very easy to customise.

Invisage Design is providing all of the hosting, DNS and email requirements for New Forest Observatory.
