Social icons are here to stay

Social networking icons

Recently we have been adding different social icons to our clients sites – and just added these to our site . As they set up a Facebook page, Twitter account, blog or Linkedin profile we add the icons and links. If you don’t want to set up your accounts, we can do that for you, making it look good as well, with custom banners and graphics.

Anyway, getting back to the icons above, whats with the Twitter one being crossed out? The story is we need to work, so Twitter will have to wait. It takes extra time out of our busy schedule to keep all the social sites up to date, so until we can handle Twittering, we put it on hold.

Whats with the sketchy icons? I love to draw, sometimes during a project I forget to put pen to paper, but the best ideas for projects come from thumbnail sketches, so it’s nice to sit back and get back to basics – drawing.

Directions-Newsletter or Magazine?

Directions Summer Issue 2010

FSMA Directions Summer Issue 2010

Print is here to stay. It started out as a 36 page newsletter for The Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (FSMA) organization; information on events, photos, research news and more. Members and families loved to get this publication, now a few years later, the organization has grown and so has the publication, the Summer 2010 issue is 92 pages!

It is great to see that print is alive and well, so many clients are focused on internet based marketing and communication they fail to see the power of the printed page. If you would like to get a sample of this excellent publication call me and I’ll send one out.

If you would like to support FSMA please visit their website at www.curesma.org.
