The 500 Festival is the celebration of the Indy 500 and they wanted their site to reflect that. The festival has a HUGE library of images and they've been put to work on this site, with nearly every page having a nice banner image that promotes the spirit of the events. Another requirement for the site was that it needed to be easy to update for their staff of volunteers. I used Drupal and set it up with a lot of automated features, such as image cropping, so that it would be easy as a breeze to edit.

St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary in Crestwood, NY, is a school of theology and ministerial preparation in the Eastern Orthodox tradition. The seminary's Drupal 6 site is a dynamic site highlighting academic programs, special events, faculty research, and student prespecctives. By leveraging the Revisioning, Rules, and Taxonomy Access Control Lite modules, the site provides a robust approvals process where various content managers can add and edit content in their respective areas and submit their changes to the site editor for publication. To make dealing with images easy for site content managers and to ensure consistency in design, several complex ImageCache presets were set up (utilizing ImageCache Actions and ImageField Crop).

Finally, the site is based on advertisements, and the ad server used is OpenX (http://www.openx.org), as I have yet to find a Drupal way to do this as easily or comprehensively.
