“And this just in...”

Thanks to a wonderful client, I've recently had a great time doing a printed brochure and accompanying website update for Chateau Hair Designs. Here's a quick summary:

New BROCHURE   New WEBSITE

Revised, redesigned a new printed BROCHURE about services and prices, integrating look and feel elements from new storefront signage into a tri-fold layout Revised, redesigned a new WEBSITE from legacy site materials to match printed brochure, including look and feel Upgraded website HTML and CSS to full standards compliance*, including a footer link for live verification Added CSS rollover effects to provide some additional details on selected items Integrated a new BLOG at Blogger.com with the client's site, overriding Blogger elements and styles to preserve that same consistent look and feel Enhanced photos to add "watermarks" where appropriate, and improve web appearance overall Integrated a new Web GALLERY at Picasa.com with the client's new blog Vetted additions and changes with multiple browsers, on multiple platforms Provided a private, "shadow" site and blog to allow non-disruptive preparation and testing of future updates Preserved legacy information by keeping the entire previous version of the site available on demand through a footer link * Unfortunately, it's common practice for public hosting agency web servers to insert additional code, such as ads, which won't pass standards validation. Oh, well... At least we do our part!
