Different Facebook, LinkedIn and MySpace Workshops

By Tim Priebe | February 25, 2009

T&S is offering workshops for Facebook, LinkedIn and MySpace. While they may or may not be a good fit for you, there are a couple of things that differentiate us from others offering similar workshops:

Day at the T&S Office (time lapse)

By Tim Priebe | February 24, 2009

This is February 23, 2009, at the T&S office. We thought it would be fun to record the entire day, but condense it down to a little over a minute, so you can see everything in time-lapsed format.

Workshops, new office, free websites, oh my!

By Tim Priebe | February 4, 2009

When we’re in the website planning stage with a new client and they ask us about a blog, we always tell them to only get one if they can commit to blog at least weekly. Of course, it’s been over a week since we here at T&S have blogged. Shame on us. But we have had some exciting things going on lately.

The Fireworks Advantage

By Guest Blogger | January 22, 2009

Fireworks is often overlooked. Many (most) web designers today use Photoshop to design their websites, and a lot of them have never considered or (*gasp) even heard of Fireworks. Adobe Fireworks is made for creating websites. That is what it was built for, and it does it well. Fireworks enables you to rapidly prototype and…

Don’t take your own website photos

By Tim Priebe | January 9, 2009

If your business is like many other small businesses, you’re probably on a relatively tight budget, even when creating a website. You’ve signed a contract with a web design company, and they’re wanting your content for the website, including photographs. Money is tight, so you opt to take them yourself. Big mistake. Taking the photographs…

Should I blog?

By Tim Priebe | January 1, 2009

Happy new year, everyone! Making any new year’s resolutions? Wondering if your business could benefit from a resolution for you to start blogging? Here’s a few questions to ask yourself. Can I write once a week? If you can’t blog at least once a week, don’t bother. One thing worse than no blog at all…

Website statistics that don’t matter

By Tim Priebe | December 30, 2008

Tracking website statistics is a good thing. After all, how can you determine if your website is successful unless you set a goal for it, then track some statistics to see if you are reaching that goal? With that as a given, so much of the traditional view of the important statistics to track just…

Color scheming

By Tim Priebe | December 25, 2008

Merry Christmas, all! For those of us who are not officially designers, but still like to create, it can be hard to come up with a color scheme. I had a few websites I liked to use for inspiration back when I wore all the hats here at T&S (scary, I know), and some other…

Alternatives to Internet Explorer

By Tim Priebe | December 18, 2008

Looks like a nasty security hole has been discovered in Internet Explorer. And this one is big. It’s present in every version of Internet Explorer in use today, from IE5 released in June 98, to the beta of IE8 that’s currently out. This is just another reason to switch away from your pre-installed Internet Explorer…

Although I’ve already written a non-video blog entry on the topic, I thought this topic would be a good one to try out a video blog entry. View and subscribe to our YouTube channel here.
