The Challenge

BFB needed a drastic upgrade to their website in both visual appeal and functionality. In our discussions, we assessed that they would likely need to update and add content to their site on a regular basis.

The Solution

We created a liquid design for BFB (i.e. a layout that expands to fit the browser window) and wrapped it around a flexible content management solution. Today, the BFB marketing team operates and updates their own website with news, information releases, and more.

Tips & Tricks

Dream the Web

A lot of people think that web design should begin in Dreamweaver or whatever HTML program they have. These programs are not made for creating visually pleasing designs; they're made for generating html code.

When you're trying to create a graphically pleasing design for your website, don't limit your potential for truly innovative appeal. Begin with a graphic design program, like Photoshop or Illustrator. These programs are designed to encourage creativity and ease your work flow. After you've achieved a look that you're satisfied with, work towards formatting that look with the web output tools that your design program provides, and duplicating that look in the web design environment of your choice.
