Avalanche Music

This was a personal project. I first developed a python site bot, that searched through and captured lyrics from sites. This then took the information, stripped out the html and inserted it into a database. At this time I have around 244k lyrics and upwards of 10k artists. Using all standard component code I was able to make this web site to a xhtml 1.1 validation.

Using an older version of the MedioCart that I developed, it is the main site for all products at the retail store I was working at. A lot of little custom things we're added for the unique products that needed to be shown. Various larger objects as well as smaller shippable products had to be properly noted.
