This site will look much better in a browser that supports web standards, but it is accessible to any browser or Internet device.
The dumbbellsgym web site follows the same principles the gym emulates; simplicity, strength, boldness and resolve. The web site boasts a custom web store integrating current inventory and updatable database. Surfers can order health supplements online via a custom-built, secure (SSL) credit card processing engine.
The site was scripted in PHP, takes advantage of the latest CSS techniques and validates to W3C standards.
Novell Customer center is a new service offered to it's customers that provides one source for license and updates/patches maintenance. The initial release will involve only Novell's latest Linux products. The Novell Customer center is a concerted effort to simplify the process of doing business with Novell.
Novell Customer center implements the latest browser technology by heavily utilizing the HTTPRequest objects (AJAX) and prudent use of CSS; all of which behaves the same on all modern, DOM-compliant browsers. Through the development of this project, common, reusable Javascript libraries have been created which will be shared via open source channels. The backend and data integration components were coded in Java/JSP and was heavily integrated into other business systems based in Oracle and Siebel. This is a very fast, sensible implementation of D/HTML and AJAX which provides a great user experience to the user.
Omniture came with the concept of a Flash-based application and screensaver suite for the PC and Mac OS X platforms. The Dashboard displays personalized, real-time web statistics based on the rights of the user. The Dashboard implements a custom installer, runs as an ordinary desktop program and keeps configurations locally per user.
The Omniture Dashboard Player project challenged Coop7 with complex requirements to have consistent behavior accross the PC and Mac platforms. Although not exactly identical, due to platform differences, the Dashboard is a great example of what Flash is capable of.
Novell's marketing department wanted an easy, centralized tool for building and maintaining web surveys. The SurveyBuilder interface manages a database of surveys with their appropriate questions and answers. These surveys are editable via this Flash interface hosted on the internal corporate site.
SurveyBuilder is a Flash-based rich web application providing real-time survey editing via a client/server architecture. Utilizing some of the most-used Flash MX 2004 components and a customized XML engine and parser, the building blocks from this project make future projects more efficient.
Iomega requested a short animated video showcasing it's logo. The concept was to portray Iomega as a global company possessing finer attributes with details upon further inspection. The animated aspect portrays Iomega as an active, vibrant company with the sum of it's parts working together, pulling together as a whole.
The offical logo was taken from a vector format and individual parts were extruded to 3D objects from within Lightwave. Animation and texturing was also done in Lightwave. The Audio was recorded from real sounds of Iomega hardware.
Internal Novell sales people needed a simple way to relay critical, legitimate feedback to the engineering department regarding product issues seen in the field. EagleEyes is a specialized database and web interface for requirements and resolution tracking.
EagleEyes was a good exercise in database/web interface development. The interface utilizes JSP as the code and MySQL as the data repository. There is a fair amount of Javascript involved manipulating the form components and is highly customized for the customer.
