Loved this project!
The Jenks Chamber of Commerce wanted an All-American, classic poster feel for this project, so we rocked it out with the American Musical Festival style of design for Riverfront South’s July 4th event page.

An Important Truth
By: Jonathan Cox | June 13th, 2010
I just watched a documentary on the situation in Tibet, and saw this poster soon after. I think this speaks for itself. We should always remember how lucky we are, and remember how important it is to commit ourselves to giving back to the world when we’re blessed.

By: Jonathan Cox | June 2nd, 2010
We’ve all heard a lot about being “green” these days, but what does that even mean? Am I right? Well, the minds behind The Henry Bellmon Awards are here to tell you, and Aqua Vita we’ve partnered with Sustainable Tulsa and Tulsa Southside Rotary to create a website capable of bringing their message to Oklahoma.

Aqua Vita and Tilestone Distributors Launch New Website
By: Jonathan Cox | May 26th, 2010
It’s always a pleasure to announce a new website launch for our clients, but I’m particularly proud of this one: http://tilestonedistributors.com/
For starters, TileStone Distributors has, without a doubt, the most gorgeous showroom for custom tile I’ve ever seen, which gave us an excuse to put Josh’s sexy photography skills to use. We incorporated his shots in the animated slide shows we produced for the front page and the footer, as well as the custom product section and the order samples button in the sidebar.

QuiBids Harnesses Consumer Adrenaline With Cruel Efficiency
By: Jonathan Cox | March 18th, 2010
Have you guys been to QuiBids (AKA the new “consumer crack” site) yet? Geez those guys are good.
It’s been a while since we’ve seen someone up the ante with the whole online-auction thing, but QuiBids has done it. They’ve basically created a system that amplifies the sense of urgency consumers feel when confronted with an awesome deal. There are reports of users winning Macnooks for $23.72, VIZIO 32 HDTV’s for $2.60 and 8GB Apple iPods for $18.90.
Pretty freaking incredible. How do they do it? Simple:

Is Google Moving Into The ISP Business?
By: Jonathan Cox | February 13th, 2010
Wow. It appears that Google may be entering the internet service provider business.
Just this week, Google announced that they plan to test ultra-high speed broadband networks at one, possibly several, communities across the United States. This fiber-to-the-home network would allow home users to upload and download at speeds of over 1 gigabit per second. Holy hyper connection speeds, Batman!

Good Site, Bad Site: Edition 1
By: Jonathan Cox | February 9th, 2010
The other day, I began researching branded jump drives for AVC. Nothing says “I love you” to clients like a stylish, pocket-sized piece of technology that makes their lives a little easier, right?
But alas, this path was filled with far more peril than I had realized. Here’s how it went down:

The Three Acts of Website Magic
By: Jonathan Cox | January 20th, 2010
How is a good website like a magic trick?
I saw The Prestige recently, and I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to draw the comparison between my craft and magic. Everyone knows we techies are wizards, anyway, right? So here we go. Are you watching closely?

10 Things I Learned about Business in 2009 – Part Two
By: Jonathan Cox | December 31st, 2009
6. Know your products…
…inside and out. You can get an excellent feel for what works and what doesn’t by making note of your weakest products, your strongest products, and the price points each sells for.
Earlier this year, I spent a fair chunk of time and money creating a couple of new product packages for folks that needed a simple startup site. It wasn’t successful. Fortunately, I keep records of sales meetings on new products, so I began to review them to look for the problem.
