Don’t design for Joomla!
Being seasoned CMS professionals we tried several CMS solutions and quickly got into the mindset that we had to develop our sites around the software. That is exactly what we did for quite some time - until we encountered Joomla!
Joomla is ultra flexible and our sites are designed in Photoshop without any regard to what you may think Joomla can or cannot do. Our finished sites look exactly the way they do in the design layout.
Now that Joomla 1.5 is stable and supports many of the extensions we like to use, it has become even more apparent that we have no limitations when it comes to website design.
We feel that too many CMS sites look very similar and can often be spotted as CMS sites from a distance. For that reason we never use templates. Each site we design is carefully crafted from a unique graphic layout that has been meticulously researched for the clients particular needs. So, we have a large portfolio of websites - each unique and attractive in its own right.
So what is the secret? Well, there is none. Joomla makes it possible. Joomla for us is the ultimate CMS framework and it lets you take control of the complete development process. Sure, you may sometimes need to do a little extra programming to get things exactly the way you want them - but that is what professionals do.
Navega Bem - Web Design has absolutely no affiliation with Joomla and is a totally independent web design company. Our only connection is that we love Joomla!
