Our concern for people's needs and a desire to help others has caused us to invest so much time providing information to anyone in the website design process. Our ebook, forum and do-it-yourself website services are direct results of these informative features.

This website will help anyone be able to start from the ground floor and work up from there. It covers the usage of word processing, digital photography, image editing, designing webpages, and much more.

For those who need help with word processors, we have explained how to quickly make the most of various versions of Microsoft Word.

How to edit and work with images with Adobe Photoshop is explained in detail.

Some companies charge more for 1 equivalent Drupal, Joomla, or Wordpress template than we charge for a membership which provides a free ebook, a forum to ask questions for help and unlimited template downloads. With a memebership here, just post message for any section for which you want a reply.

Bohemia Website Services Ltd takes it name from the following definitions: 

Bohemia:

1) A community of persons with artistic or literary tastes who adopt manners and mores conspicuously different from those expected or approved of by the majority of society.

2) A group of artists and writers with real or pretended artistic or intellectual aspirations and usually an unconventional life style.

We have emerged as a company that partakes in Vancouver web design and web development through untraditional means. The company was built on years of self-study and technical writing combined with formal PHP/mySQL training at the University of Illinois. The company had a vision and goal; to develope and create custom websites through reading stacks of computer books, reading thousands of forums and websites with accurate note taking along the way, and being trained from the University of Illinois that brought the Apache Server at the 'National Center for Supercomputing' at the University of Illinois. This method has enabled us to attack a development concept like going from point A as an idea to point B as a finished piece of work. To get to point B is often a mix of spending money and customizing html, CSS, javascript, PHP and MYSQL.  

Catering to all residents of BC, Bohemia Website Services Ltd offers personal attention to the entire province. With the owner having grown up in a small town outside of Vancouver, B.C, we have an understanding of how to please all residents in urban locations like Vancouver and Kamloops and in rural towns like Gold River and Nelson. We spend much of our time between Vancouver and Kamloops, hence we can offer very personalized service for Vancouver web design and web design in Kamloops.

Joomla 1.5 was released on January 2008 and it has been used to build millions of sites. Now, it is at version 1.512 and still going strong. Joomla can be downloaded at joomla.org and installed on the hosted domain or a local Wamp or Xamp server. Wamp is a good tool to use for testing Joomla sites offline before they go live.

Joomla can be seen as the Windows of Content Management Systems. Other CMS may have positives like better administration control over content, but, Joomla has so many components, modules and plugins that can be installed which can do practically anything a user wants. All plugins components and modules are written in PHP. In some cases they can be installed and used immediately. In other cases, proper parameters need top be setup. Yet in other cases, they will need complete makeovers in the CSS and PHP files. Furthermore, just how PHP is setup on the server can have an impact on how the site displays information. At some point, a web builder will need adequate knowledge of PHP and MYSQL in order to make forward progress with the majority of Joomla components, plugins and modules. Still, for the client he wins because the CMS can be setup and delivered rather affordably, and his ability to edit text and image content will cut all future costs and allow for a more up to date website at all times. 

So many websites are built with Joomla 1.0 and Joomla 1.5 because the client can login and make changes on his computer. The changes can be text or graphics. 

With the Global economy, so many Joomla extensions are being produced in countries the american dollar is very strong. This allows for an instant purchase for an affordable extension that can often be downloaded within minutes of purchase. And, as you read this, more and more competetion is popping up and new versions and templates are being tweaked to keep web 2.0 very fresh indeed. It may be heartbreaking for some people to see such advanced coding being sold in Malaysia for $150 when it would take a hefty salary for an efficient PHP programmer with solid CSS skills to create the same software at home. This is just the way it is. Web developement is becoming more plug and play. Joomla is a spelling change from the derived word 'Jumla' which means 'all together'. The future, at this point, only looks easier for the plug and play web developer since the methods of plug and play are so cost effective and a quick solution to often complex problems. 

Some of the more high end Joomla sites are outdoorphotographer.com and tnawrestling.com 

For websites that just use text and graphics, familiarity will be the key. Drupal and Wordpress load very fast with websites that display text and graphics. 

Adding video into blogs and forums can be done through various means; such as embedding local videos or adding Youtube videos.

This sort of feature on a website can be used for so many uses; such as travel writers wanting to post tales and videos on the fly, a bounty hunter with new leads, a private eye tracking a cheater for divorce purposes, a writer with new blog entries with video readings,  and any other use where video and text make a great union.

Adding Youtube videos is the simplest method for which to add videos.

To add Youtube videos into a blog,

1) Join Youtube which takes a minute. 

2) Upload the video.

3) Wait for Youtube to convert it.

4) Take the Youtube ID and use that in the blog or forum entries. For this to happen, you may need to hire a web developer to set the blog up so that this is possible, just like the video inserted into one of these blog entries.

 

Your Flash site can stand alone or it can be used in conjunction with a Content Management System so that you may include an assortment of bells and whistles at any time.

Content Management Systems are a fine way to make websites for people with lots of content, or with those that like to make lots of changes to their website.

 The sky is the limit; video, podcasts, online examinations, blogs, forums, community sites (dating, facebook-like), memberships, advanced searching and more.

This blog uses a simple youtube video to show how simple it is to write any text with an accommpanying video. For artists, musicians, a blog and other forms of communication is a simple way to make a point. The artist below, who made his way on talent, is from the era before video killed the radio star. Nowadays, the Internet and savvy artists are finding a way to promote without having to fork over the weekend's entertainment fund.
