Recently they announced the competition called “Clear The Smoke”.

Smokefree West Midlands has teamed up with Kerrang! radio to invite 17 – 24 year olds to enter in the ‘Clear The Smoke’ design project, entries can be made by individuals into either category or indeed into both, a winner will be chosen from each category and prizes awarded as below.

My inspiration was from my own personal childhood (both my parents and siblings smoked). I not only had lacking health (not solely down to them smoking but it was a contributing factor) but I got bullied a lot due to the way I smelt at school (note to parents… stale cigarette smoke is not something that smells nice!)

The Competition

Category 1

PRIZE
You will be invited to Kerrang radio to produce your script and £150 Bullring vouchers!

Please supply radio script entries as a word document.

I know a few people are “what’s the point of that?”…

Well… a wedding website enables us to capture RSVP emails, also make announcements about the wedding to friends and relatives (and is also a great source of advertising for me as well as a potential route to market later)…

It’s a great way to let those nearby or abroad know about your wedding date and details, who will be in the wedding, and what to expect. We can post our piccys on there from events and, stag / hen parties as well as the big day. It’s just a great tool within the arsenal of our planning…

Admittedly, not all the areas are working at the moment on the website but it will be at the end of the weekend!

(the techy bit… behind the scenes)

There are LOTS of wedding website vendors out there… a lot of them offer quite a lot of functionality that is well worth the investment, but me being me (and a designer) I figured I can make a solution to fit our needs without making it overly complicated.

The backend is CMS driven, a little open source CMS called RUUBIKCMS. Its created by some folks in Finland, and is quite a powerful CMS considering it doesn’t use a database… that right, its free standing! That’s just what I needed as I didn’t want to spend any more of my precious SQL databases (I only have about 90 left… I know that’s a lot but still).

So either way, I have a big thanks and thumbs up for RuubikCMS and I will be using them in the future!

Me out.

the subject of this piece should have already stopped and be none existence in the world, but it still goes on. awareness is the key… together we can stop it!

(disclaimer, this / any posters within the series are not part or ever will be part of “official” advertisments. They are purley a structured expression of my personal opinion to raise awearness on the subjects!)
