Court-Records is looking to make the second major overhaul in its history, and we need your help to do it! We're currently working on a redo of C-R's main site that aims to not only give a fresher look to the game content and coverage you know and love, but also gives the Ace Attorney community a place to share and discuss their fanwork, in any shape or size.
Most of the backend work is done, thanks to the wonderful Henke, but we're looking for two people to help us finish up the site:
- A website designer. CSS and PHP experience is a must, with Less-CSS experience a huge plus. (This role has been filled! Thanks to all that applied.)
- A data entry/copywriter. HTML experience is a must. This would involve writing content for the site and inserting it through some specialized forms.
For both roles, familiarity with setting up web development on your own machine (Apache server, MySQL, etc.) is desired - we can provide some help in getting set up, but if those words are all Greek to you, this might not be a good fit. This should be a short-term project; we're hoping to get things launched in the next few months.
Unfortunately, Court-Records runs on a bit of a shoestring budget, so we can't provide professional-level compensation; you'd be doing this for love of the series and probably some extra AA swag we have. Sorry - we understand for a lot of people this is their job, and if you can't do the work for financial reasons we don't blame you. If you're cool working like this, you'll of course be credited on the site.
If you're interested, drop us a line at courtrecord@gmail.com (no, there's no 's' in that), ideally with examples of your work.
Hi! I've largely stepped back from C-R due to life stuff. Please contact one of the other staff members for help!

Do you know when the overhaul will be complete?
As I said, we're hoping to have it done in the next few months, but this depends on if we're able to find people willing to help out, and then on their schedules.

All the same, good luck to the people that will be working on this; hopefully it turns out great!
Well? Are we going or what?

I do have knowledge of Adobe Muse (a program used to make a website without a single line of code).

CSS on the other hand is mostly about telling the browser which elements should be drawn as boxes with a colored background and border. Doesn't really take more than maybe an hour to learn how the box model works.
No, the real trick to webdesign is knowing how to make something nice looking using the tools given. Hint: it is all about boxes.

And you know what?
F██k it, I'm down for this.
I haven't written PHP literally in forever, but if you guys already have the coupling engine to fetch posts from phpBB to use as newsposts, it shouldn't be hard to get the stuff you want going.
...Just please, do remember that I have a day job, that I'm NOT in Eagleland, so due to timezones we might not coincide sometimes, and that sometimes I'll be hard-pressed for time (never know what these gringos and hindis might come up with to keep my ass flooded with work) so this might take a while. >_> But I'm willing to help with whatever you guys need. I recently got into the AA fandom again, and would LOVE to help my former home flourish once more.
If videogames make murderers, then guns kill people and spoons made Rosie O'Donnell fat.

So I finally grew a brain and remembered to give myself a signature... Whoopee.

By all means contact us if you're interested in that position, but we've only gotten a few applicants for the copywriting/insertion position, so if that sounds more up your alley, we'd love to hear from you.

We just need to make it look good and put data in. We already have people on the first part, but we are still looking for someone to do the later.

I am a professional Web-Developer currently residing in Germany.
I'd love to help out (voluntary of course). I am an active reader of court records for a few years now (though I've never been posting actively since English is not my mother tongue).
If the position is still open I'd love to apply officially.
