Let me start by wishing you all a very happy 2009!
We have been busy building websites and creating mock-ups for new websites.
I was looking for a way to make adjustable buttons for use in a website and tried to make a few reusable buttons in Illustrator after reading some tips in Computer Arts Magazine. Let me tell you how I made them:

Every other day around 6 pm, I receive an e-mail from Layers Magazine with 1 Illustrator or Indesign tip or trick for the day. This time after reading the article, I tested the tip in Illustrator for one of my clients who needs a new website (and for whom I am looking for some inspiring colors). I have a logo (already some years old) but looking for some harmony colors for that logo.
Suppose you have a logo with 1 or 2 colors. You need some more colors for - let’s say - a website, a brochure but you’re not sure what colors to choose exactly. Here are the steps to follow:

Today was a big day for BeneMailer.  Our mailmarketing tool has been upgraded and brought back to live this morning.  A short overview of new features you might find very useful

Recently, a client asked me what type of digital camera he should buy. The most important feature he wants is the ability to print his JPEG’s in print quality.

The most important answers to the question ‘What do I need to do to make my website appear in search results?’ were given in the first 2 parts of this introduction to SEO.  As important is to know what do I definitely need to avoid to make sure my website is not banned from search engines.  The third and final part of this introduction will make you aware of “The Dont’s” in SEO.

A few weeks ago, we launched our new Bene website. The website was made using Expression Engine as the content management system. We hope to finish the dutch version within a few months, but for now, everything is written in english. Our website has made it in a few showcase galleries. We like to share the list with you.

We are glad to announce you the new version of our website.  It has took us quite a while to complete due to numerous other projects for our clients that of course take priority.  That said we’re are very glad it is finally there and we hope you enjoy it too!
