Blimey, a site for old jokes

And here it is - our shiny new site. We've been so busy on work that pays, that we've neglected our own site. The only problem with that is - we're a web design company and in theory our site should be one of the most fantastic in the known universe, a superb endorsement of our great skill and talent.

When we first built our previous site in 2002, the web was still a "cool" place, and web sites were "funky" and "groovy", and our site reflected that, although with better jokes. But the time had come to get serious, and what you see is the result. Built on the back of our fantastic Plone CMS and a load of programming effort, we've got all kinds of bells and whistles built-in, most of which you can't see, but which makes it easy to keep the site up to date and full of exciting new content.

Some of the stuff is visible, like the zoomable images like this one in the portfolio, or the slideshow on the homepage. Okay, so it's not earth-shattering new technology, but it is pretty groovy (see what I did there?), and how are you supposed to know that we can give you these things, if we don't have them on our site?

And there's more - like this blog - entirely our own work, and easy to install on your web site, if you want one. But I think my favourite bit of stuff is this mechanism for linking to a particular part of a page, which not only takes you to the appropriate part of the page, it also highlights the relevant part and builds in a little "back" button to return you to the page you just came from. Check it out. Have a look here at the FAQ about ecommerce, and then, on the same page, follow this link to the bit about email. If you scroll up and down you'll see that only the bit you were linking to is highlighted and has the back button. Simple, but nice.
