Send a Drupal greeting

Dan Noyes on

Every year CERN creates a print Christmas card and an online, paperless version to send by email. To date the electronic card was a static image - although last years' had a bit of animation: http://user.web.cern.ch/user/Resources/seasons-greetings-2010

This year Silvia and Seb (in the graphic design section) created a Drupal version that allows you to create one with a personalised message. Please test it out - we'd like to iron out any wrinkles before announcing this on the users' page: http://greetings.web.cern.ch

Comments directly to Silvia or via the comment form below please!

Thanks,
Dan

Seems to work great :) And the pictures are very nice.

A couple of minor remarks:

  • When viewing / editing a card, there's no way to go back to the homepage or the list of cards. Maybe include a simple breadcrumb?
  • After saving, the confirmation message says "E-card E-card XYZ has been updated." (note the duplication).

Nice detail on the URL hash argument to anonymize cards ;)

All is great! Thank You! I sent 3, all went well. I think the pictures could be more in number and better looking.

But I understand 'beauty' is a matter of taste...

Thanks

Maria

Thank you. Yes, there appears to be a problem with the comment form on this site! I'll get to it when I can. This may be a theme issue?
