Affordable web sites for clubs, communities and small businesses
Fathom Systems Goes Live
The web site for local engineering company Fathom Systems went on line recently. As with all web sites created by Daddy and a Bee, it allows pages to be quickly added and updated whenever necessary by Fathom Systems themselves. An nice extra feature for this site was a "slideshow" banner image that slowly fades from one image to the next. This was written entirely in JavaScript.Stonehaven Fireballs Web Site
The Stonehaven Fireballs Association have asked me to redesign their web site. Work is still in progress, but the site is substantially complete within a week of starting work on it. As well as the usual Content Management System based site which allows the committee to post updates whenever they need to, the site features embedded videos from YouTube, embedded Picasa picture galleries and a forum.Cabrach Web Site Online
Daddy and a Bee has completed the web site for Aberdeen and Stonehaven based ceilidh band Cabrach. The site features a custom theme for the band, sound clips, a picture gallery , a calendar where the band can list their upcoming gigs and an online booking form module.
"Manning" Canal Design Software Delivered
Manning - an application for designing irrigation canals and other open channels - has been completed for Adrian Laycock Ltd.
Adrian Laycock Ltd is a small independent engineering consultancy based in the west of Scotland, and specialises in Engineering for Irrigated Agriculture in developing countries. The requirement was to build a new application based on legacy code written in Turbo Pascal with a view to producing a commercial product. The new application was written in C# and was delivered in August 2007.

Lembas web site goes live
Daddy and a Bee have completed the new web site for Lembas - a local organic farm who have been growing and distributing organic vegetables in this area since 1980. The site features clean, clear and simple graphics and an interactive map to show exactly where the farm shop is located.
Also included was a simple FTP client program so the farmer can upload his weekly price list with the minimum of fuss.
