Warmest Greetings,

Cre8asiteForums Noted For Best Design Principles  

:: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 ::

Noted for its "Best use of core design principles", Cre8asiteForums is awarded recognition by WebDesignFromScratch, making the "BEST" side of the best/worst showcase of web sites. In the company of AdaptivePath, Apple, and CriticalMass, this is quite an honor!

WebDesignFromScratch hit us front and center recently at Cre8asite, when, during my daily "runs around the Web", I came across Ben Hunt's shareware tutorials in web design. He's big on user centered design, but more than that, his smooth web site is educational, passionate and easy to use. Ben tells us,

     "If you love WDFS, please do me the honour of leaving a message or two on the site itself (preferably not the home page, it's very busy on there, but on topics that you find stimulating - for any reason!)"

CForums is really more than a forums. The Moderating team, led by Stock (Grumpus), also built Cre8asite.net, which is the research library. There is also a forums blog, Cre8ative Flow, which several people write for. The forums have undergone changes to the back-end, and the user interface has been changed over time in subtle ways. Expect to see new top navigation soon. Sophie (Sanity) and Dave (ILoveJackDaniels) are working on this now. The Cre8asite Network (forums, blog and library), are also a referral network. We team up on projects, and refer people for projects.

Barry Welford has some questions for SEO's in No sex please, we're SEO's

I dunno about that. When I was a Journalism student I wrote a hilarious piece called the "History of Sex" for the college newspaper. One of the tidbits I found in my research was that journalists were said to have the least amount of sex.

I sooooo didn't want to hear this, at 20 years old!
