Well, it's been busy here at Saskatoon Web Design. Quite a few sites will be launched in the next few weeks. The first one of March is www.mashedbananas.ca. Mashed Bananas is an online boutique of fresh, flirty, and modern brands of products for new moms, babies, children, and the home.
The core of this website is osCommerce, a free and open source e-commerce solution. As a designer, I like the fact that osCommerce has about 12, 000 active stores across the world and a huge community devoted to improving the product. We've employed about a half dozen 'mods' to the mashed bananas store to customize the experience and add the features needed. Just about every graphical feature of the base application has been replaced by custom designed images. And best of all, the store owner is capable of adding, deleting, managing her products, inventory, coupons, newsletters, and much more without the help of her web designer.
For as much as I'm a fan of work, I also acknowledge that many clients would prefer to save some money and take a hands on approach to their operation. They then become more knowledgeable about their store, its operation, and their needs, all of which is only good for business.
