Research
is essential in each industry. We find out what's current, who your
competition is on the web, how they rank in the search engines and
what you can offer to make your business stand apart from the others.
Design your site one page at a time, letting you view it live buy
logging into the "Clients Private Area" for approval. Many
companies send you a disk or file attachment to view your page(s);
we do not. We want you to see it the way everyone else will.
MaxVista have an open communication channel. If you'd like to ask
more questions, call us. If you have an idea, let us know so that
we can try it. After all, it is YOUR website... Most
designers charge by the hour. We, however, feel this could potentially
be unfair to the client. There isn't a web designer or company out
there that can truthfully say they are 100% skilled in ALL areas,
i.e. Java script, CGI, Perl, designing, graphics, animation and
the like. Company A may be able to create a form for you in 1 hour.
Company B may not have done quite as many forms, so it takes them
2 hours. Who pays? YOU. This is why we charge by the page or by
the project. Any number of things, such as distractions, can distort
production time. You shouldn't have to pay for anything but a finished
site.
News Pages, Events Diaries, etc
are an area of your web site that can be fully controlled by the
clients. ASP Pages are now the norm in web design allowing clients
to add information to the web site without ANY knowledge of web
design. Secure area login pages are controlled by the client. Any
website incorporating ASP pages comes complete with its own manual
and email technical support. On site training can also be arranged
if necessary.

 Description:
Spectra Tools is an e-commerce enabled website that sells inventions
in the tool industry to both resellers and the public. The website
uses a bespoke ASP system for the shopping basket and flash
animation to show how the tools work.
The Brief: To produce an e-commerce website that appeals
to both the public and trade visitors. The site should be very
easy to navigate with no more than 3 links to the product you
wish to buy. The credit card application uses Worldpay as validate
credit card information.
Result: MaxVista produced a bespoke ASP shopping system
that uses a mixture of ASP and Javascript. The database contains
unique functions that were also designed by MaxVista. Each product
also has a flash animation to show how each product works. The
site was well received by the client and we have progressed
our relationship in to producing the new packaging for the tools

and dedicated team of trainers and consultants who were required
to provide standards for a UK Government Agency in x-ray/electronic
searching aids and search procedures in high risk and custodial
environments. TLT Required a professional website that reflected
their target audience.

within 24 Hours and get it live on the internet
!!!
Result: MaxVista worked

instantly delighted with the design and only required some
text alterations. We used basic navigation and some Macromedia
Flash for animation. |

A complete E-Commerce system with order tracking and SSL (Secure
Socket Layer) for email credit card processing.
The Brief: August Designs were very confident in the
site that they wanted produced. They knew what they wanted
in a web site they knew the way they wanted it. They showed
us a few websites that they liked and a few that they didn't.
Also a new logo should be designed along the same idea and
feel of the old one.
Result: August Designs
are very pleased with the design ideas that we presented them
with. The new colour scheme that we used perfectly complemented
the designs of the clothes that they manufacture. The new
logo gives a better 'brand' appearance that is easily recognisable.
The e-commerce system is very easy to use for both the visitors
and the site administrator. |

 Description:
A Brochure site that uses a Flash navigation system. Javascripts
are used for some aspects of the web site to scroll through
images applicable to each product page. The web site uses
only a single frame for display.
The Brief: To produce a bold web site with easy navigation.
The design should be bold and easy for the visitor to use.
The technical information should be kept to a minimum and
only available to those who request it. The site should
be built without frames or complex graphics that 'take forever
to download'.
Result: MaxVista used simple Flash navigation and
some javascripts for the interactive areas of the site.
The main site navigation is across the top of the site with
individual areas of navigation for each separate area. Adobe
Photoshop was used extensively for image editing on most
of the graphics and water effects.
