Motorlogs

(2011) - Motorlogs is a website fully designed and built by myself as a cleaner and simpler alternative to the big player in the space, CarDomain. Where CarDomain feels very much like the old MySpace, littered with ads and promotions and arming the user with the full WYSYWIG to make their pages look like web circa 1995, I designed for pure simplicity and focus on content with a clean template that makes for easy browsing.

I built it on the Drupal platform which helped jumpstart the build with its vast selection of open source modules, though the learning curve of Drupal was no minor task in itself. I also learned how to manage a VPS server in the process with some performance tweaks and newfound command-line knowledge.

The design went through several iterations, one of them including a fully illustrated badging system, and a few custom wallpapers were Photochopped, the Mad Max Camaro in particular being fully composited (aside from the Camaro) from screenshots of the film.
