Dreams for my Daughter
Brandammo are pleased to have been involved in the post production and printing of the White Ribbon Alliance Exhibition “Dreams for my Daughter”
The exhibition is being shown at the south bank centre, London 8-11th March
Launched for the 100th International Women’s Day, 8 March 2011, Dreams for My Daughter is a unique collection of photographs and writings inspired by Hadhya Yahya Mohammed Al-Zawm, a young woman from Yemen where White Ribbon Alliance is campaigning for a legal minimum age for marriage. In a speech she gave at an event hosted by The White Ribbon Alliance’s Global Patron Sarah Brown, adhya said her mother had a dream for her – not to be married at nine as she had been, and to get an education.
The images have been shot by award winning photographer Joanna Vestey who has worked with many charity’s including World vision, The red cross, and Amnesty International.
If you get a chance its worth a look to see these amazing images and to show support for this important issue.

jQuery Full Screen Carousel (fullscreen width & fullscreen height)
Using the awesome carouFredSel, I’ve integrated it into a full screen carousel, so it scrolls the whole width and height of your browser window, if the body height is shorter than your browser height, the browser height will take precendence and vice versa.
Credit for the carousel goes to carouFredSel, I merely made it work to provide a fullscreen width and height solution into a plugin. You will need to get the carouFredSel Plugin and the jQuery Easing Plugin. It currently works with the latest carouFredSel plugin which is 5.1.3 as of posting, and probably will work with revised versions. This plugin has been tested in Latest Chrome, FireFox and Safari, IE 7,8 & 9. Please use the latest jQuery Release too.
