Contact me

Rhino — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 02:34:41 +0000

It is finally up. I have been working on the script for the contact form during the weekend. It uses AJAX and jQuery to send emails without reloading the page and to add some cool effects. I haven’t had time to test it thoroughly so it may contain some bugs. If you notice anything wrong, don’t hesitate to post it here.

Portfolio Beta

Rhino — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 00:43:39 +0000

With the end of the midterm rush I got more time to work on non-school stuff so I decided to work on my portfolio. I just released a beta version of it which I’m pretty happy with. It is a mix of PHP and javascript. PHP to retrieve the information on the different projects and javascript to display it with some eye candy. I used jQuery for all the animations. On the design side, I wanted something that integrated well with this blog and I thing I succeeded quite well at that. I could write more about it but I think the best way to judge it is to go and take a look so here is the link: http://portfolio.rhinosphere.com/.

I also wrote a directory view script to display the files of projects that are not web projects. It uses PHP to retrieve the file list and a jQuery script I wrote to reorder the files without reloading the whole page every time. It also more visually appealing than the classic Apache directory view.

Portfolio Started

Rhino — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 16:39:58 +0000

I started working on my portfolio during the weekend. The frontend is practicly done. I use JQuery a lot for different animations and since it is the first time I use this library extensively it takes me more time than usual to code the frontend but I’m really happy with the current result. As of now I don’t have a demo version but I will release one as soon as I have time to finish the scripts and correct the bugs. This will probably be next week or so since all the midterm exams and projects are taking a lot of my time right now.

Globami Extended

Rhino — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 05:19:30 +0000

I added a new feature to Globami. This will probably be one of the final updates since I don’t think of anything else to add. So this new feature is called the “more” option. It gives more informations about a certain friend when you click on the “more” link at the bottom right of his info bubble. It then launch a JQuery dialog with more complete informations on the person. This is my first try at JQuery so it is a pretty simple script.

Also, I have no plan to add any other networks now. If you have a request for a specific network, just post it here and I will see what I can do.
