Userintuition: Web editing and design

Merehr

Merehr is a novel by Utah-based author, Shytei Correllian. For her website, the client asked that I draw colour inspiration from the image on her novel's front cover. In addition to fulfilling her request, I also used the image itself in the website's banner so that both the novel and website would have a common identifying feature.

Another added detail can be found in the website's menu. When website visitors hover over the menu titles, each item automatically changes into Rieevan, a language found in the novel.

A key component of the Merehr website is its use of a custom PHP-based solution that enables the client to publish updates on her own, something which she was very keen on doing.

Testimonial

Li-Na built a wonderful, functional site for me from the ground up based on just the few ideas I threw at her. The site exceeds even my highest expectations. A real bonus for me is being able to go in and make changes myself with live-updating. Great with support and answering all kinds of newbie questions, Li-Na also took a difficult hand drawn image and somehow managed to retouch and magnify it for the site. Thanks for the beautiful and web-friendly home base for my work!
