    This is one of those sites that you just cannot wait to get done with! This client know what he wanted and how he wanted it....the home page is a whirlwind of hovers and a slider (which he also wanted hovers on- but we vetoed that!).

    Built with Genesis and Education theme as the base and about 60 custom fields so they can completely and easily manage that monster of a home page -- but I so would have just created a custom theme had I known the direction he was going in!

    Home Page

    Yeah, it is done!

    Great work, Jill!

    It looks like a custom theme, not much left of education.
    The menu looks great on Desktop. I would give up trying to navigate so many menu items on mobile.

    Really nice.

    Thanks Christoph.......and I agree on the menu -- but he had thoughts of his own! 🙂 I tried to talk him out of a few things on mobile to improve usability.....but he swears no one uses mobile to view his website! 🙂

    Hello,

    I agree, but in these cases I tell the client not to guess and make decisions based on facts: have a look at the traffic from mobile/desktop in Google Analytics.

    Nice work
