Portfolio

Backyard Sports Sandlot Sluggers

I built a custom Drupal module and an Actionscript 3.0 flash loader for the Rookie Arcade section of BYS's new website. These worked in concert to bring together a series of minigames written in Actionscript 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0, record the scores, and display the high scores at the end.

I worked with two different studios on this project to bring the new site and games online in an extremely tight schedule. This included learning all three versions of ActionScript in a single week.

Account Auto-Setup from Shopping Cart

The automatic setup system I built for iBoomerang. When a customer signs up for a new tool, if they are a current customer, it adds the tool to their account, otherwise it creates them a new account.

The Cart 32 shopping cart system is a closed source system, so the auto-setup system works entirely through javascript in the templates that scrapes the users information and submits it to a PHP API I built.

You can see it live, but only if you buy something.

Technology: e-Commerce, PHP, Javascript, jQuery, AJAX, JSON, API development, Cart 32

Unfortuinately the owners killed the project for unrelated reasons and it never saw the light of day.
