Features of our e-mail include group emails for separate departments, shared calendars, shared to-do lists and chat.
With so many web designers, it’s hard to choose which one is best. The first thing you should look at is the quality of their website. If it doesn’t excite you or make you want to have a similar website – you might want to consider another web designer.
A lot of beautiful website’s are built using Adobe® Flash™. Though we do support Flash because of its widespread adoption and ease of use, we opt to build our websites on other standards. With a growing presence of iPhone’s, iPad’s and other Apple® products on the market that do not support Adobe® Flash™, it is of growing concern that Flash™ will diminish in popularity. It is of absolute importance that you do not have customers visiting a website that they cannot view. While a replacement has not entirely shown itself, HTML5 is believed to be the forerunner. As a result of these new market conditions, we design our websites using HTML5, PHP, CSS and JavaScript. These languages can be viewed on almost any internet browser, regardless of version.
Our mission is to create dynamic websites that are simple, functional and visually appealing. In addition, all of our sites are be optimized for search engines to ensure that your customers will find you.

Right now is an exciting time to be in the Web design community. Every month we seem to stumble on a new thought-provoking way to put our expanding tool set to use for our clients and the patrons of the Web. Many designers are chomping at the bit to litter their websites with new CSS, advanced HTML and ultra-engaging JavaScript. By all means, go out and use every last declaration and element you can get your hands on. Abusing, misusing and taking advantage of everything the Web could possibly offer is the best way to learn about what we can and can’t and should and shouldn’t do in future.
Whether you are excitedly exploring responsive design, diving headlong into accessibility, building a typographic masterpiece or seeing what level of interactivity you can achieve, all of your Web-based projects should have a common core. All of the new methods being discussed in the design community daily might be overwhelming, but no matter what route you ultimately take, almost any Web project you embark on today should start with solid HTML and logical CSS. This may seem like common sense, but the fact is that very, very few websites today benefit from sensationally optimized HTML and CSS and appropriately applied JavaScript.
When I say solid HTML, I don’t just mean that it validates as XHTML 1.0 Transitional. I don’t even mean that it should validate as Strict. What I mean is that your website should be void of superfluous containers, rogue classes and misused elements (both new and old). The process of building out the core components of a website may not be exciting, but this foundation is critical. These days, we have better options. HTML5 has opened the door to a new way to structure websites, and CSS3 is revealing new methods for not only achieving advanced visuals but doing so more effectively. As designers and developers, we have failed to hold ourselves to high enough standards for too long. Websites built on an exceptional framework have simply become optional.
