Professor Greet is looking to hire a student worker to complete a short term digital project. Schedule is entirely flexible as long as all work is complete by June 25^th. 

 

Pay: up to 25 hours at $18/hr (maximum $450)

 

My website Transatlantic Encounters https://chnm.gmu.edu/transatlanticencounters/ is currently using an outdated Omeka template and needs to be transferred to a new theme to maintain functionality. 

 

Work would involve:

• Modifying the theme Center Row
• Incorporating the original homepage image on the new site; or work with me to restructure the homepage
• Implementing the fonts used in the original site (or something similar)
• Making tweaks as needed to the site appearance including colors, font family & size, and images on the site
• Assisting with any other changes to appearance settings after the transfer is complete
• Identifying and implementing custom thumbnails for items without images. 
• Creating cheat sheet for me for future data updates

 

Necessary skills:

• Familiarity with Omeka and CSS
• Ability to work independently

 

If you are interested, please contact Professor Greet at [log in to unmask]
