Projects

I have a condition that prevents me from being happy unless I am creating something. The result of this illness is that I am constantly on the move with my fingers in various projects. I love building websites with WordPress, so most of my projects revolve around WordPress, whether it is developing themes, plugins, or just hacking WordPress to meet my needs. My other love is my iPhone and I am constantly working to take advantage of this amazing machine. Here are some of the results of my creataholism:

Found Photography
This is where I display the pictures I am taking. In addition to being a gallery, half the site is dedicated to Photo Thoughts where I talk about the cameras that I build/modify/use in my photography.

Be A Design Group
I started a graphic design blog with my friend Bennett Holzworth called Be A Design Group. It quickly grew into a pretty popular site among designers. The site is no longer active but feel free to browse through the thousands of entries and comments that live on.

Font Burner
I created Font Burner to be the easiest way to add great fonts to a website. There are over 1000 fonts to choose from and all you have to do is add a chunk of code to your website to instantly transform your headlines.

CATH3DRAL
If I have a marketable skill it is being a web designer/developer. Right now Cath3dral is just a place holder, but eventually it will grow into a web design business.

WordPress Plugins
I have created several WordPress plugins that are available from the WordPress plugin directory. The first is called Font Burner Control Panel, which gives users a control panel where users can add any of the fonts from Font Burner to their site. The other plugin is called iPhone Control Panel and it lets people control how iPhones “see” their site.

Pie.ui
This project is a combination of two great open source projects, SimplePie and iUI. It is a free download that lets you easily create an iPhone web app from an RSS feed.

Konami Easter Egg
The Konami Easter Egg is a WordPress plugin that allows you to hide secret messages in your website. Only by typing the secret code that you specify can a visitor reveal the hidden treasure.

Co.de. Read
Co.de. Read is a Colorado Design Book Club. The plan is that every other month we will pick a book that is relevant to designers and discuss it. I was involved in a book club in Nebraska several years ago called Club Red and I though it would be fun to try and start a similar book club here in Northern Colorado.

Raven3.net
I started Rav3n as a place where I can stay connected to my friends. It is a private blog, so membership is by invitation only. We do highly classified top secret things in there that I can’t talk about publicly if you get my drift.

Phone Feedr
This site provides a simple way to allow anyone to create an iPhone optimized version of their website using an RSS feed. Users setup an account, choose their subdomain name, enter their RSS feed and instantly their “feedr” is active and ready to promote. Another nice feature of this site is the ability to upload a custom icon that will show up on the iPhone’s homescreen.

Eye Sprocket
I started Eye Sprcket as a web advertising network. I am in the very early stages of this one but you can learn a little more by visiting the site.

Holy Gears
Holy Gears was a website that allowed anyone to quickly and easily setup a blog. It ran on a customized version of WordPress MU.

Design.AdrianHanft.com
I try to keep the dust off my design portfolio by adding work to my site whenever I can. If you want to view samples of my design abilities this isn’t a bad place to start.
