Creativity Australia
Last night we attended the launch of Creativity Australia at the Sofitel in Melbourne.
It was a great night and we are proud to be a creative partner for the cause.
A highlight for me was seeing Dame Elisabeth Murdoch at the event. At a few months off 100, Dame Elisabeth is an amazing individual, supporting worthy programs like Creativity Australia.
We developed the website for the program in conjunction with Cornwell's design team and even managed to catch up with Amelia, Deanna and Giuliana from Cornwell for a celebratory school night beverage. The End. David

Websites Launched
It's been a busy few weeks and we're really pleased with the work we've delivered.
Here are a few of our newest web design clients that have had their websites launched over the last week.
Angela and Paul from JFCP have been great to work with on the redevelopment of their website. Proactive, responsive and know exactly what they want. JFCP is part of J.P. Morgan Asset Management which has a strict style guide. The site conforms to the style guide so it fits in with the J.P. Morgan group. This site uses our "Backstage" CMS to manage content and helps JFCP keep their clients up to date.
If you want to talk about a home grown international success story, Camatic is a great example. Camatic design and manufacture commercial and venue seating around the world. Take a look through their project gallery to get an idea of the scale of the stadiums and venues they fit out, the images are fantastic. Managing the huge amount of content on this website is a breeze with our content management system driving the site admin.
This promises to be a spectacular development. We've helped with a simple web placeholder site which was designed by Cornwell. Take a look at the registration form and see if you notice anything - a clever little gem included by Wes from Cornwell.
A great team effort on these projects which had some very tight deadlines - but most importantly great results all round.
It's a beautiful day in Melbourne today - so don't forget to look out your window and take some of it in. fin.

Melbourne Cup Day
The Melbourne Cup carnival is one of the biggest sporting events in Australia. Tomorrow the nation will again pause for the running of the worlds most famous 3200m horse race. It's a great time of year to be in Melbourne and Cup day is all about catching up with friends for a BBQ and to hopefully finding a winner or two. The Flemington track can expect 110,00 plus patrons, in what is a great party atmosphere. If you've never been to a Melbourne Cup do yourself a favour and get to one!
Interesting to note that those of us at work today are in the minority, with most Melburnians opting to take the Monday off and enjoy a 4 day weekend. We're here keeping things ticking over. Whatever you're up to have fun and enjoy your cup day.
For what it's worth here are our Melbourne Cup selections:
David - 18 Profound Beauty
Mark - 8 Mad Rush
Darren - 5 Nom Du Jeu (with chances to Master O'Reilly and C'est La Guerre)
Happy punting!

The Source Espresso
Happy Friday everyone, awesome, big week and lotsa work on.
Nice to finish today with a live site for the coffee guru from Sydney, Russ & The Source Espresso. A Wordpress reskin - template build, the site offers Russ a chance to blog his travels, learnings and movements in the coffee-sphere (?).
The Source had some great imagery we were able to take and manipulate to get a site up that's functional, SEO friendly and (we think) looks great.

Reclaim St Kilda
A few weeks back we met Sean O'Donohue. Sean's an endorsed candidate of CAPP, the Community Alliance of Port Phillip and is standing in the council elections for the City of Port Phillip.
Sean came to Efront looking for a website that would let him communicate directly with locals in his area and help to facilitate discussion. Over the last couple of weeks, we've worked with Adrian at Shopfront Design and reskinned a Wordpress blog to provide Sean with not only a website, but a functioning blog too. This kind of tool lets Sean invite discussion and provides a means of getting his message out there whilst leaving his comments and posts open for debate. We've also added a small form that allows visitors to leave their details, capturing this information in an online database that Sean has access to as needs be.
We're really happy with the outcome and wish Sean all the best!

Happy Friday all,
