<p>As the sole back-end and front-end developer, I built a custom CMS solution for the Pappas brand restaurant, allowing Pappas to manage content on eleven websites through a single interface. The various sites make use of the Google Maps API, allowing visitors to search for a location and view the specific brand locations or all Pappas brand restaurants within their search area. The CMS also allows Pappas to add additional restaurant locations, as well as maintain location specific menus, promotional graphics and banquet rooms. The sites also include custom built contact forms, developed to save data to an existing Pappas CRM system.</p>
<p>To get an understanding of the scale of this project, take a look at a few of the front-end pages:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pappadeaux.com/location/?id=34" target="_blank">Specific Restaurant Profile &raquo;</a><br />
<a href="http://pappasseafood.com/location-rooms/?id=98" target="_blank">Pappas Seafood Banquet Rooms &raquo;</a><br />
<a href="http://www.pappasitos.com/contact-us/" target="_blank">Pappasito&#8217;s Contact Forms &raquo;</a><br />
<a href="http://pappasbbq.com/finder/" target="_blank">Map Search (search zip 75202) &raquo;</a></p>

<p>For this project, as with all Pep Boys projects, I was tasked with the front-end responsibilities. The most impressive piece of this delivery was the JavaScript functionality which provided the backend developers with a simple function to initiate with three parameters (mileage, last service mileage, and next service mileage) in order for the service schedule graph to be generated with correct values and bar widths.</p>

<p>While I welcome and receive plenty of input and feedback from coworkers, I am responsible for the design and development of the client facing project review portal for GDD Interactive. This tool allows clients to review and, when necessary, approve all comps for their ongoing projects, as well as review comps from previously completed projects. </p>
<p>This portal includes an assortment of bells and whistles, including heavy doses of ajax (drag-and-drop list reordering, field updates, approval submissions), secure login via SSL and database encrypted passwords, multiple file uploads using <a href="http://swfupload.org/" target="_blank">swfupload</a>, and a CSS heavy design with graceful degradation.</p>

<p>As sole developer for the annual Indie Game Challenge, I created and maintain the website, allowing developers to submit their game and pay submission fees using PayPal integration, complete with API integration for verifying payment in the custom admistration panel. </p>
<p>The second phase of the annual event displays the finalists and allows visitors to vote for the Gamer&#8217;s Choice Award (utilizing <a href="http://code.google.com/p/cool-php-captcha/" target="_blank">cool-php-captcha</a> to prevent scripted voting) and register for a sweepstakes for an all expenses paid trip to G4 in Las Vegas.</p>
<p>The final phase each year involves updating the site to display the winners immediately following their official announcement.</p>

<p>A series of gallery events and parties were hosted in order to promote our Black Ops Studio design and web services. This particular party was invite only, and I designed and coded this invitation and RSVP website in a single day. It includes simple data capturing, allowing us to approve attendees (bands and groupies) before displaying them on the site. It also included email confirmations to let attendees know that they had been accepted. The HTML for this one page site demonstrates my ability to build table based layouts, a crucial part of email-friendly HTML coding.</p>
