Don't usually post ongoing work, but this one is close to heart as a redo for the NGO I spent two years with in Kenya a few years back, and the first site I did on a freelance basis and built with my first open source CMS, Website Baker. This updated version will be build in Wordpress (surprise, surprise!). Below the current work is the original one I designed back in 2006.
With special thanks to Looney for recreating a master version of their logo.
And from 2006...

Eric, you have any interest in doing this as a paid gig? If so message me via my site, I'm not even 100% sure how to install extensions and so forth in Joomla, it's not exactly the simplest system to use.

::@dave that last image and trees is amazing. what a spot.::
Yeah, trees + fog made it pretty cool, but it did mean we couldn't see over the valley at Salento (Colombia), which was a little disappointing, lovely place.

CSS/web question
Posted 20.04.2013 @ 12.21AM (Edited 22.04.2013 @ 6.56PM)
Okay, company I work for wanted a new website and they've agreed on a design and someone in house (we only work on print) who does freelance web stuff says we can't do this or its too difficult and not worth it, I just wanted to make sure it is or isn't so I can come back to the owner and give advice.
Anyhow if you look at this rough website design, the owner wants the menu to always align to the bottom of the browser window, just wonder if this is possible on either css or easily able to find a solution? As I'm not 100% sure how to argue its possible or not possible and I can't really find another example to show that it does or proves it impossible unfortunately. I have found some examples where websites have element which always align to bottom of browser window and showed him them but he's argued its a complete different concept and I'm like surely if you can define a div to always sit at the bottom of a window you could do it for another but he seems adamant you can't and obviously I'm not a web expert to argue otherwise. so Hopefully @dave or @pscysm or some of you other webby guys can help.
Also if what he is saying is incorrect I just want to know so I can organise a solution.
