Our Showcase
Every
attempt is made to create unique sites with original graphics which
suit both the nature of the organization and the target audience.
Ease of use, eye-catching colour, strategic use of web technology
when appropriate all contribute to the inviting look of our webs.
We work
with a number of non-profit groups to create professional
websites at reasonable rates, plus smaller commercial
organizations. However, much of our work is done for corporations,
many of whose webs are behind company firewalls, and therefore not
available for public viewing. In those cases, a snapshot of the
screen is given with any identifying logos removed.
