Content Management Systems

I stepped into Mr. Mugs & Awards in Hamburg, NY a few months ago and handed one gentleman our brochure, and was immediately presented with questions about designing a website capable of customizing text on a shirt imprint, and then handling the custom shirt as an e-commerce object for purchase with PayPal or something similar. […]

A local Hamburg, NY villager stepped into our studio a short while back, and inquired about establishing a website for the sale of his photography.

Continue Reading...A website with advanced AJAX navigation designed
I’ve recently had the pleasure of converting someone’s PDF mockups to a fully functioning website. This job came from freelancer.com, and happens to be my first bid on that site that was (honestly) accepted.

We had submitted multiple proposals for the design of this site before finally being approved last week. Some of them can be viewed at samples.idwds.com. Palettefilms.com uses a completely different style from all of our previous designs. I personally prefer this use of photography in the design over HTML generated image repeats or other synthetic […]

We designed and built LibertyAutomated.com during this past week and a half. It didn’t take us very long to complete because the owner provided specific details and his own images to insert. Tom designed the header graphic and basic layout. We made this site HTML5 compliant. We also departed from the HTML ‘table’ for a […]
