It was a lot of fun being at WordCamp Atlanta this weekend, especially being able to introduce a nice room full of people to the concept of parent/child themes and hopefully pass along some tips for them to run with. And I’d like to say, before anything else—big thanks to Brandon Sheats and Tessa Horeheid, the organizers for putting it all together. They really did a great job, and I’m looking forward to next year’s event.

“Ryan developed the core WordPress theme that I have used for a number of conference and event websites.
Ryan was able to quickly arrive at a design that I liked and demonstrated a good eye for design and a strong command of WordPress development. I was very pleased with the work and the short time from concept to delivery of an attractive theme.”

“Ryan is a joy to work with on projects. Clean code, met every deadline we had and was always looking for ways to improve the product. Would highly recommend him.”

Notes made and kept during the process of developing a website for a client.
“Ryan Imel was quick, professional and knowledgeable about WordPress development through out project.
The site is stable, well built and we’re very happy with it. There are a lot of bad developers out there and I can say without a doubt Ryan is one of the good ones.”

It was great to be able to give a talk last night to the Screaming Monkeys web guild here in Fort Wayne on using WordPress as a CMS.
Rather than force anyone to scribble down notes as I went, I’m dropping a few of my notes and recommended links up here for anyone to grab.
“Ryan is an excellent WordPress developer who really knows the framework and CMS inside and out.
He fit in perfectly with our team and I really haven’t any complaints about him or the services he provided us, and would recommend him to anyone I know.”

BandThemer is a niche-specific WordPress themes shop, specifically for — you guessed it — bands.
The Catholic Diocese of Fort Wayne was first established over three hundred years ago, and as of 2009 they are now running on the most elegant CMS around — WordPress.
The Colorado Youth Corps Association is now enjoying a website that’s easily managed on WordPress.
