Jason Greenwell from My Tech Team chatted with me originally with some questions about copywriting for his site, but then realized he could probably use a facelift for his original site (archive image). He chose Productum by Woo Themes in Fresh Blue for his base site, and then we added from there.

This project’s modifications include:

• Custom PHP/HTML/CSS/Wordpress programming for the order form, footer widgets, menu bars, and sidebars.
• Copywriting and typography assistance.
• Customizations for the Lifestream Plugin for Wordpress, featuring the On Stage Free Icon Set
• Aquaticus Social – Free social media icons for the feeds at the bottom right
• WPSEO and Google XML Sitemaps Generator plugins.
• Custom cut-out images for the featured images section.

The client is very pleased with how it turned out, and I really enjoyed this project because I got to work with graphics and icons more than I usually do. You can see the final result live now at MyTechTeam.net.

I did have one noteworthy snag though … I learned the lesson of saving your work before upgrading! The theme had been upgraded in the past week, and what I thought would be an easy upgrade of the version I modified turned out to be hours of work. I guess a few lines of the new code didn’t work with the existing site, so I spent a lot of time fishing through to figure out where the problem was. I did figure it out in the end though, which was important to me in terms of presenting a quality product to the client.
