In continuation of adding support for mobile devices James Paul Photography has introduced a mobile version of the James Paul Photography website. The url for the site is http://mobile.jamespaulphotography.co.uk. Visitors using mobile devices such as iPhone’s, iPad’s, Blackberry’s and Android phones will be re-directed to the mobile website by default although should you wish to have the full browsing experience and have a device capable of browsing the full site the you can easily switch back to the desktop version.
The mobile website offers most of the content offered by the desktop version but in a more mobile friendly way. There is no flash in the slideshows or audio. I’ll be looking at adding more content in time. The mobile store will launch the same time as the desktop version.
Some of you may have noticed but I’ve updated the design and layout of the website and hope that you like it. I’ve moved the site away from the iweb template design used in the previous version and it’s now all hand coded. It’s been a big task, juggling between taking photos and developing the website is a bit of a balancing act so it’s taken a little longer than i’d hoped however here is a brief list of the main changes to the site:-
* Language translation in to 48 languages for most pages (provided by Google).
* Added Social Networking support, the ability to email a page, print a printer friendly version or post on Facebook/other Social Networking services. You can also log into the blog using your facebook login details. There are also links to my social networking sites.
* Support for mobile devices (Now able to view the flash based Portfolio slideshows directly on an iphone/ipad etc).
* New header and footer designs means it’s easy to find a page at anytime.
* Website search (quick search or advanced).
* Updated Stockgallery and Portfolio slideshows with some new images
Sadly I’ve not finished redesigning the Store so at present the website will redirect you to my Redbubble site. I’m now using ‘Magento’ to build the shop and it will offer a whole range of new features that I was not able to offer previously and be much easier to use. I’m also hoping to completely redesign the Stockgallery after the New Year with all sorts of new features such as lightboxes, slideshows and contact sheets.
Enjoy the update!!
Just a note to let you know that shortly I will be implementing a new design to the website with a few new features and pages. The redesign will be focused on reducing some of the ‘bulk’ of the site that slows it down and a bit more user friendliness. There will be support for international languages at the touch of a button and with the popularity of mobile devices such as the iphone/ipad I’m going to try and support them much better. There will be some new pages that will be not up and running initially but they should follow soon after.
One of my images entitled ‘Stile & Barn, Ravenseat, Upper Swaledale, Yorkshire Dales’ has been chosen as the front cover to an award winning novel called ‘Going Over’ published by Muswell Press. The novel, written by Alan Franks who is best known as a writer for The Times and author of many plays tells the story of a man travelling over Northern England to find his estranged father. The story was a winner of the New Writer Magazine national novella competition.
