Richard Culverwell Photography

January 25, 2012

My friend Richard Culverwell has recently launched his new photography portfolio with the help of Linkhouse Media. Richard made it clear right from the beginning that the focus of this site be the photography. We have built a site with a clear focus on his amazing work. The site features galleries, some helpful information from Richard and a responsive design that scales for mobile devices. It even incorporates a great touch swipe feature for mobile users which provides easy navigation through the photos.

Have a look through his galleries and you’ll notice that his attention to detail, scale and composition make for some fantastic photography. I can’t wait to add some to my home! Thanks, Richard.

Huckleberry’s is Online

November 29, 2011

Filed under: Web Design — Tags: Huckleberry's, Jason Rosewell, Parry Sound, Web Design — Jason Rosewell @ 11:40 am

Huckleberry’s in Parry Sound is a specialty retailer of home and cottage furnishings. It’s one of those places you walk into and are greeted with an amazing aroma of scented candles, pine cones and sachets. It’s a cozy store that cottagers and locals flock to when they need that perfect item for their home or cottage or simply need to take in the sights at Parry Sound’s amazing waterfront.

Linkhouse Media has developed a website that has the clean look and feel that Huckleberry’s works hard to achieve in their store. We went with a clean, contemporary feel that is designed to provide the information potential customers need as well as let the store and product images shine.

Festival of the Sound site launch

April 1, 2011

Filed under: Web Design — Tags: Festival of the Sound, James Campbell, Jason Rosewell, Stockey Centre, Web Design — Jason Rosewell @ 9:05 am

This is not an April fools joke, but it is another great day at Linkhouse Media as we officially go live with the all new festivalofthesound.ca! Over the past few months we have had the pleasure of working under the art direction of the amazingly talented Sara Tyson who envisioned the look of the site as well as the Festival’s print media. My hat is off to the Festival of the Sound’s incredibly hard-working Marketing & Community Relations coordinator Carla Bossart, who worked many long hours filling the new website with content. Carla, along with Festival Executive Director Margie Boyd were instrumental in coordinating the site structure and content, and were able to clearly communicate their needs as the project moved forward.

The Festival of the Sound is in its 32nd season this year and will run from July 15th to August 7th with the Charles W. Stockey Centre for the Performing Arts being its main venue. The Festival features renowned artists from all over the world who come together on beautiful Georgian Bay to wow audiences year after year. It has been our pleasure at Linkhouse Media being a part of such a great organization and we look forward to a continued relationship with the Festival.

Some of the features of the new website include Linkhouse Media’s own custom Content Management System, dynamic page, artist and event creation, a WordPress blog integration with media gallery and custom theme design, a custom theme design for the online ticket portal and much more.

Head over to festivalofthesound.ca and let us know what you think! The new Festival website is proudly hosted by Linkhost Media.

Firefox 4 Address Bar Search

March 24, 2011

Filed under: Apps & Development — Tags: Firefox 4, Google, I'm feeling lucky — Jason Rosewell @ 11:18 am

So you just upgraded to Firefox 4, watched yourself light up on the world map and got to work checking out the new features in your new browser. You’re working away and per your work habits, type a search term directly into the location bar of your shiny new browser. To your dismay you realize that you’re taken to a google search results page rather than the website you intended to land on.

In version 3 of Firefox, typing keywords into the browsers location bar would automagically bring you to a website via Google’s I’m Feeling Lucky feature. If you were like me, you grew to love this feature. A great example is the fact that I would constantly forget format characters for PHP’s date function. Rather than memorize the full URL to the documentation, surf to php.net and click through to the answer or even sift through a maze of bookmarks I would just use my little Firefox trick.

Mozilla in their wisdom has disabled this by default in Firefox 4 on both Mac and PC. The procedure to change it back is the same on both so here we go:

In a new window or tab type about:config
Click “I’ll be careful, I promise!” to bypass the scary warning (do be careful… you could break your browser)
In the filter field, type “keyword.URL“
Double click the entry that comes up and in the dialog box insert the following: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
Click Ok and you’re done; no other steps required

Enjoy your restored search functionality!

Exciting things for 2011 at Linkhouse Media!

December 20, 2010

Filed under: Web Design — Tags: Festival of the Sound, Huckleberry's, Linkhouse Media, Sara Tyson, The PaperWasp Design Studio, Web Design — Jason Rosewell @ 11:24 am

We are very excited to announce that Linkhouse Media has signed a design contract with the Festival of the Sound to develop their new website. This project will include our custom Content Management System as well as incorporate online ticket sales through the Festival’s very own ticket portal. Our goal with this project is to give users a great online experience as well as allow the Festival staff to make regular updates in a timely manner. We are also excited to work with the very talented designer Sara Tyson who is designing the visual aesthetic for all Festival of the Sound digital and print media for the 2011 season. Look for a site launch with online ticketing opening April, 2011.

Some other great projects in the new year include contracts with Huckleberry’s, a unique Parry Sound shop specializing in high quality items for your home, cottage and garden, as well as the first ever website for the St. James Centennial United church in Parry Sound. Both of these websites will feature a WordPress framework and custom theme design by Linkhouse Media. Our office at 17 Bay St. smells great thanks to the Merry Memories scented envelope sachet Michelle picked up at Huckleberry’s!

Finally, we are working with The PaperWasp Design Studio to provide a new website for the The UpTown Waterloo Business Improvement Area. This project is gearing up for a spring launch and will replace their current website. It’s great to be branching farther out into Ontario.

We would love to add your project to our 2011 calendar. Contact Jason Rosewell today at (705) 751-LINK.

We are very pleased to announce the launch of the new website for Desmasdon’s Boatworks!
