Randsco Site Map
Site MapAgain, this is something that I've been wanting to do for some time and I believe that a site map is necessary to help those people out that have a hard time figuring out what is what on our site. I'd like to think that our menu system is easy and will work, but some people just require a site map to figure it out. So ... here you go ... a site map. :)
About the Kimlers
about usThis is where visitors can find out about Randsco and the Kimler family. Who are we? How did we come to be? What motivates us on our adventures. It's kinda like the old "meet scott and rachel" section on our PCT WebPage, but this "about us" section will be a stand-alone page.

FEATURED DONOR: Ellis Design Associates is a small, independent civil and structural engineering consulting company, based on the south coast of England. Most of their work is in the U.K., but they've also had projects in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, the Middle East and North America. Their new website was deployed on Jan 12, 2009 and uses Photo-Caption Zoom.
The Ellis Design Associates website was recently revamped by Nick Bowles, of Webcraft U.K., Ltd.
"[They] already had a lot of content on their website, but it was difficult to navigate and not very search engine friendly. We are confident that having a new, modern-looking online portfolio, showing their wide range of expertise and experience will pay dividends for the company in the coming months and years," Nick said, when the new site was launched, on January 12th, 2009.
Nick employed Photo-caption Zoom on several of the engineering design portfolio pages, maximizing page real-estate, adding relevant and search-engine friendly caption text and allowing web visitors to see project photos in greater detail, without having to leave the the portfolio page.

Randsco "Shout Outs"
Many folks have helped Randsco.com. Some donate money, some use our Photo-caption Zoom, popINFO and other scripts in a creative way, some hire Scott for CSS or XHTML coding or site design, some back-link to Randsco and still others help with website development and/or content.
This growing list of websites showcases and says "thanks" to some of those people.
FEATURED DONOR: Green Man T-Shirts is a super environmentally-friendly clothing company based in California. Their mission is to sell organic t-shirts and save the World. The second is a doozy, but with 25% of their profits donated to environmental causes and groups, they're off to a good start. Green Man T-Shirts uses Photo-Caption Zoom
Green Man T-Shirts is an environmentally-friendly purveyor of - you guessed it - tee shirts. (The name says it all, eh?)
And apparently more, because the "Green Man" is a legendary pagan deity that roams the woodlands of England and Europe. He is usually depicted as horned and peers out of a mask of leaves. He archetypically promotes "being one with the Earth".
Dave Urban & Rob Juszak, co-owners of Green Man T-Shirts, sell only 100% organic cotton and bamboo t-shirts made by the most ethical and environmentally conscious companies in the apparel world. In addition they also give 25% of their profits to support environmental causes and organizations.
Green Man T-Shirts utilizes Photo-Caption Zoom on a number of product-related pages. They know it's important for customers to get a detailed view of their tee shirt designs, and Photo-caption Zoom provides the added ability of including an engaging textual description with the detailed photo. It's also search-engine friendly and because it doesn't rely on Flash, JavaScript or other add-on dependent technologies - their message gets across to EVERY VISITOR.
The Green Man Loves Photo-Caption Zoom
Dave and Rob have known each other for over 40 years and both cut their teeth in the corporate retail industry. The promise they made to themselves, when they started Green Man T-Shirts, was that they would never run the business like the huge corporations for which they used to work.
Rob is the resident artist, responsible for the t-shirt designs and artistry. You can see more of his creative tee shirt designs on this T-Shirt Art Gallery page.
Getting pictures on a t-shirt site is extremely important. Photo-caption Zoom gives us the perfect way to show our products in a dynamic fashion. It's simple to use, but also very flexible.

Green Man T-Shirts
Dave is the resident IT guy, responsible for the maintaining the company website and also writing for The Green Man Blog.
Dave knows that photos on a T-Shirt website are very important and likes Photo-caption Zoom because it's a good way to showcase products, engage customers with an interesting mouse-over feature and it's both flexible and easy-to-use.
Like most folks do, Dave found Photo-caption Zoom, via a Google search.
While Dave likes the technique, simplicity and flexibility, what he didn't realize is that PZ3 is a pure-CSS technique, which means it does not rely on JavaScript to work. It's also written to standards, which makes it future-proof and cross-browser compatible.
Dave can attest to the fact that royalty rates are reasonable and PZ3 can be scaled to any project, whether it's a 'Mom & Pop' shop or a multi-national corporation.
Contact Scott to find out the various ways that Photo-caption Zoom can be used to enhance your web-pages. From photo-galleries, off-thumb hovers, enhanced image-maps and innovative film strips ... photo-caption zoom is more than meets the eye.
And while you're looking at Photo-Caption Zoom, surf on over to Green Man T-Shirts, buy yourself or your loved one a 100% organic tee and help save the planet.
