The Whiskers Photo Contest
I’ve been working on Petfinder.com for about 3 years now. I’ve done things like improve traffic from search engines by 900%, overhaul the UI of the pet search function, and add the pet adoption happy tails site section. I’ve also implemented over a dozen sponsored sweepstakes and contests in the system (both front and back end).
Most recently, I’ve helped to overhaul the Petfinder contest system. For these new contests, someone else did the back-end work while I worked on the front end implementation. These contests have an integrated photo gallery and interactive visitor voting system. It’s been a fun project. One of the contests that use this system is The Whiskers.
