At Things That Make You Go Ooo! we are very particular as to how we want our website to look, feel and function. We took advice from purpleplanet as to which shop system would best suit our company both in terms of usability and versatility. We supplied a detailed, initial brief and all of the graphics and worked with purpleplanet to create the fabulous 'Things That Make You Go Ooo!' web shop.

After a great deal of learning, from both sides, and substantial manipulation of the original software we are very pleased with the results. We know that we can rely on purpleplanet to investigate every question and request for the best possible solutions, explain the options, pros and cons and to integrate solutions into our existing site.

purpleplanet was approached by the fantastic, fresh and funky team from Things That Make You Go Ooo! Ltd. to design them a new online presence, which should include a shopping facility. They needed to be able to present the products on offer in a way that best displayed their uniqueness and style, or the "Ooo! Factor", as they like to call it.

In order to best integrate a normal website with a shop, it was decided to use the Joomla Content Management System and the VirtueMart component, which has been specifically developed to work perfectly with Joomla!

The TTMYGO team received a bright, new web home, where customers are able buy a range of various innovative products (including the original LofaSofa^TM), with full credit card payment facilities and shopping cart system. A website that will make you go Ooo!

The following tools were utilised in the creation of this website:

• Adobe Photoshop
• Joomla! Content Management System
• VirtueMart eCommerce component for Joomla!
• PHP
• Coda
