Direct Selling 411

Direct Selling 411

Direct Selling 411 is a consumer site that my company developed for the Direct Selling Association. My company did not do the design, but we did the information architecture. The interesting part of this project is that the entire site is powered by WordPress.

My role in the project was to slice the site and integrate it into WordPress. The decision to power the site by WordPress was a great decision because instead of having a static site and a separate WordPress blog, I thought it would be much easier to tweak WordPress to fit the needs of the client. In the end, the decision to power everything by WordPress gives the Direct Selling Association much more control over the content. The slice was not too complex, and I would say the only thing of note is that I used the Dean Edwards IE7 scripts to account for IE6’s deficiencies.

    "To tackle the classic 'how to prototype rich interactions' problem, I developed a process for translating static screen designs (from wireframes to visual comps) into interactive experiences using Flash. Requiring some fairly basic ActionScript knowledge, these prototypes proved to be a quick yet powerful way to bring interaction designs to life."
