Graphic Design
As part of your Web site package, we create a professional graphic design for your Web site, ensuring it is consistent with your existing branding.
We provide four levels of service, depending on the type of design you require and whether you would like to involve your own designer in the process.
Level 1: Full Graphic Design
We use our in-house graphic designer to create the design. Our designer has extensive Web graphic design experience, and follows strict guidelines to ensure that the design works on a variety of computer systems.
We design a site that matches your branding closely, so that you get your own unique look and feel, rather than looking like a copy of somebody else's Web site.

Level 2: Use Your Own Designer
If you have your own graphic designer, you might prefer to continue using them for your Web site design. That's fine, and we do have a number of clients who work that way.
In this case, you take all responsibility for the design and for working with the designer. We will help you by providing detailed instructions to your designer on how to create a design that integrates smoothly with our system. We recommend that you give these instructions to them before starting the design, and ask them to confirm that they can create an appropriate design.

Level 3: Template Design
The third option is to defer the graphic design investment. This is most appropriate if you're just starting out and you're not quite sure how the Web site will look in its final form. In that case, it makes sense to start with a very simple design, and invest in a full design later.
With this option, your Web site does look less visually attractive than if you invested in a full graphic design. However, it's still clean and professional, and does reflect your branding.
If you choose this option, then we do this free of charge as part of the installation.

Level 4: Partial Graphic Design
If you have your own graphic designer, we highly recommend that you check that they know about Web graphic design, and can create HTML templates compatible with our system. Unfortunately, not all graphic designers fall into this category. That's not a problem in itself, but can become one in certain circumstances.
We occasionally - but reluctantly - do allow clients to use this option. And if you really, really, REALLY want to do so, we'll work with you. But please understand the risks involved.
