Project Overview

The Atlanta Post focuses on Business, Finance, Media, Politics, and News in Atlanta, Chicago, NYC, and DC.



Front End Description

The client provided the images, XHTML, and JS. I added in the slideshow JS using jQuery Cycle, as well as a few other custom layouts.


Back End Description

The backend makes the site. Most views have hand picked articles which the site admins manage from a slick backend admin panel which allows them to drag and drop content into place. The theme templates are highly customized to handle the custom content place. Everything on this site is dynamic and easily customizable.


Lessons Learned/Random Thoughts

I have done a lot of admin panels – but this is by far the coolest thing I have done to date with them.
