Avronics - started out as some ideas and has been growing into fun projects and a great learning experince. I wanted a way to easily post up entires, links, and other great projects people are working on. I built this website in about 2 days. I used HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP/MySQL, and RSS. Their are a couple of parts that are still "in the works", but the goal of avronics as a easy to post website is finshed.

I posted how the backend of avronics works on the Avronic's Explained posting.

Current Personal Website - This website started out completely dynamic with the vision of building SpicyCMS (A content management system that would allow for various setups and layouts.) I currently have beta 0.0.1 of SpicyCMS working. Although I have learned a lot while building this PHP/MySQL application. I think I might look into reimplementing it with CakePHP or with Ruby on Rails.

I posted SpicyCMS screenshots and explained a bit of how it will be used.

Tonic Computers - a "planned to be" computer store that my brother was planning on starting. He needed a website, so I built this to get him started.

Since I have worked at a lot of computer stores in my youth, I have had this vision of a tracking system for computers that would allow customers to track their status via the web much like FedEx and UPS for packages. After telling a number of people about it, one of the computer stores I worked for contacted me and wanted a demo of the tracking system.

Since I had not even started, I asked them for some input and got going on the project

It took a couple of weeks during the summer while I had a full time job, but I got the ground work done.

Simple Ticket System - This is the ticket system that I build using PHP/MySQL. This will help explain how it works.

Art 5 Website - This link will give you and idea of the front end of the website I built to help myself and other classmates study for the exam. There was a couple of other parts to the website, but I have lost some of the code. (note this site contains images from the text book that was required for the class.)

I built most of this in about 2 days, the hard part was adding all the information into the MySQL tables. I also added some other features around the time of the final exam.

This website provided the ablity to add notes to images and print them out. The backend allows for easy upload of content for images. I did not implemenent a image upload due to the fact that batch adding(via ftp) and keeping with a name convention was easier. The backend implemented PHP/MySQL and some css hacks.

The process and implementation aka backend can be found at http://archive.johnmurch.com/portfolio/art5explained
