CamDenver Status Update

So this weekend I managed to get a lot of work done on the CamDenver site in a relatively short time.
Currently I have the layout completed, suckerfish style main menu, basic typography, and a few tweeks to the general design.
I just need to tweek the typography, adjust the sidebar, and setup the footer. Once I finish that, I can move on to plugins and custom php.

CamDenver

I’ve begun working on the rebuild of http://www.camdenver.com and so far I have to saythat it’s an interesting process to go through. I am currently running the site off the Joomla platform. While powerful, it is too difficult forms to use as a CMS.
The purpose of the CamDenver site is to provide a portal for players to garner information about upcoming games and provide any additional, or useful info as it relates to the Camarilla and roleplaying. There are at the least five features that the site needs to have.

  1. A calendar that shows events
  2. A detail of the event showing location
  3. General game and domain announcements
  4. Contact information ala about page
  5. Hosting for the monthly newsletter

Most if not all of these features are simple enough to implement. I’ve given myself a deadline of Feb 28th to accomplish the transition. If all goes well this will happen.
