Client reminder HTML email for ChaletinSlovenia.com

Last year we made a website and booking system for ChaletinSlovenia.com, and this year, to encourage their previous guests to go back to the site, they're going to send out a pretty HTML email using 18amail.co.uk. Their designers (hotrod creations) designed the mail shot after we advised them on what…

Can we already get too much “on demand”?

Tom just had a call from BT, trying to sell him BT Vision - their TV service where you buy a box for £15 and then for a small amount a month (the prices all sounded OK to be honest) you can get lots of channels, and as well the…

Example of a good email newsletter by firebox.

For a while now I've thought Firebox newsletters have been good, with eye catching designs that perform well, such as the one below. Even if you're using an email client that can't display the background image, the centre area is still very smart. But I was particularly impressed by their…

18a Orchard bears fruit!

Update your browser

Hurrah! We are all behind this campaign from updateyourbrowser.net - not only are old browsers slow, they just don't let you experience the cool stuff the web has to offer now a days! And the longer web developers and designers have to support rubbish IE6 and others, the longer jobs…

LovelyTart.com – updates to new client’s site

I've loved the style of Tart on Gloucester Road ever since before they even opened last year - our old offices were practically next door so we could see the interior design coming together every day and couldn't wait to get inside. By the time we introduced ourselves to our…

VivienMallock.co.uk – updates to sculptor’s website

I had seen the remarkable work of Vivien Mallock a few months ago, and it didn't cross my mind that we would get a call asking us to host and maintain her site. It seems the site was originally made with software (I think Dreamweaver, but I'm a hand-coded kinda…
