Features :

Low page weight, no core.js – This makes the site faster than most MOSS 2007 WCM websites

Completely custom Master Pages and Page Layouts primarily comprising custom server controls (including custom navigation controls) and SharePoint web controls

Font size switching, page print mode

Custom Search Center, Site map page

Random "Our People" (staff profiles with images) featured on home page, randomly loaded from a site list

Latest News and Upcoming Events on home page automatically rolled up from most recent dated pages in news and events subsites respectively.

Most of the website is configurable via use of site lists, including header and footer links, home page service profiles and facility features

Service Profile Pages (http://www.amanaliving.com.au/Information_and_Service_Centre/highcare/Pages/St_Georges_Home.aspx) hooked into Facility Features site lists with the use of Lookup Fields, to make editing content easier.

Developed in record time =oP  with the use of a custom site definition ( well 2 custom site defs if you count the custom search center custom site definition ), custom list features, content type binding features, List Lookup Field re-creation, fields and content type features, master page and page layout features, custom site provisioning of sites and pages from an XML file etc. etc.

The best part of it is, it's all in source control, which helps provide greater re-use of code in future projects.

 

A nice easy MOSS 2007 WCM Project, a simple site without too many content types, or too many page layouts. Still, the site shows off what MOSS 2007 WCM can do, the site architecture is primarily built on custom site lists, and page layout content types and it makes use of Search.
