Hello everyone. Ive been a lurker on here for a while now, so I figure its about time I made a post... particularly seeing as I now have something interesting to talk about!
We have been using Actinic software to underpin our e-commerce activities since late 2005, and over the last four years it has proven itself to be utterly reliable and very user friendly. Around this time last year we first came across Green Jersey, when we began making tentative steps towards identifying companies to use to redesign our logo and produce a brand new Actinic e-commerce website for us. After some brief introductory contact and on the back of making a few calls to some of their existing clients for references, we soon realised that Green Jersey was a firm contender. Shortly after, the utterly striking Green Jersey-designed Urban Rider site went live and the rest, as they say, is history after seeing that site for the first time, we simply knew we had to work with them!
Roll on twelve months and our new brand image and website is now live. It has been a frightfully long time in the making, and while blood, sweat and tears would be an overstatement, it is fair to say that it has required a vast amount of coffee, chocolate and late nights in order to be produced! From the off, we wish to make clear that whilst what you read within the site is very much our own work, what you see and can do on it on the other hand is entirely the work of Green Jersey. Here is a summary of the most important features of the site...
Use of integrated light and dark themes to differentiate between product sales and services
A highly customised WordPress blog seamlessly integrated within the Actinic layout
Options to shop by product type, process or brand, plus a unique quick shop feature
Multiple, dynamic top quality product photography including high-quality zoom feature
Tabbed product information, including We Say, Description, How To Use and Specification
Tabbed specification graphics automatically produced from over fifty custom variables
Stock level indicators: In Stock, Low Stock, Back Order, No Stock and Pre-Order
Related products suggested on each individual product page
Integrated Google Maps
HD quality video served from an embedded Kaltura video platform
Twitter integration
Accordion effect to simplify lengthy pages
Extensive illustrated reference material for customers
Here is a link to Green Jerseys own article about the development process, which they describe as their most ambitious project yet...

...and here is a link to our musings about working with Green Jersey...

To whet your taste buds, here are a couple of screenshots showing the light and dark themes...
Finally, here it is...
