Dear agentx,
Thank you for your inquiry regarding the design of our advertisement in the Midwest Technology Jounal print edition. We value your input. It really made us laugh. A lot. We appreciate your feedback. We’ll try to be more “interseting” and “eye-catching” with our “octupus” in the future. Um, BE GOOD TOO yourself. Thanks,
The ragingly AWESOME team at Serafini Studios.

Dear Serafini Studios.. I saw yer ad at Midwest Technology Journal.. you guys are suppose to be a design company right? well guess what, yer ad on that paper sucks!! it’s plain and boring.. the font’s are too plain, The logo and the catch phrase though is good.. okey where it says “REDESIGN TIME,” that should be on the bottom of the logo.. (the octupus) it would also be more interseting and eye catching if you guys changed the fonts.. that’s all!!! BE GOOD!!!!
The website for Greater Gateway Association of REALTORS®, Inc. is now live. We’re still working on finishing the directory code, but the rest is up and looking pretty good.

We recently began work for the Greater Gateway Association of REALTORS® new website and logo. So far, just the new logo is up on their site (http://www.gatewayrealtors.com/) plus the link to their old site. We’ve got some cool things planned for this site. It will be a huge improvement over the previous site… 
We’re featured in a cover story about custom software development in the Midwest Technology Journal (formerly PC Journal). The article is about our recent work for Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods where we are building a custom web-based time-card and tracking system that Doug estimates will “…will give me exactly what I need.”

Note: we really like Doug’s website, but we did not design it. Our work is on his internal system that his employees will be using on a daily basis.

Nice article at A List Apart on project management and the necessity of understanding of the problem that needs to be solved at the beginning, rather than the end, of a project.
The Problem, the Balloon, and the Four Bedroom House: A List Apart
Many project managers believe a project has a beginning and an end. Everything that happens within those parameters can be dealt with by a methodology and a good framework of processes. What they forget is the emotional core of a project and the questions that need to be asked: Why does this project exist? What benefits will it have? What features will express these benefits? How will it make users more efficient, effective, and happy?
Uploaded the new site template. We’re still adding in the final content, but it should be all online in a day or two.

The next step we’re going to take with the new Arts For the Soul website is to begin a search engine optimization and promotion campaign. So, to kick it off, you might want to visit this arts retreat in Steamboat Springs, Colorado if you crave soul-nourishing inspiration.
Quoting from the website,
Are you looking for a place of inspiration? Then be part of a community of 36 enthusiastic people who aspire to write, paint or play chamber music at a spectacular week long retreat in the charming mountain town of Steamboat Springs, Colorado—in the majestic Rockies.
In addition to the SEO work, we’re going to begin a keyword-based advertising campaign for the site using Google and Overture. This has worked very well for Kristin Joy Pratt Serafini, children’s book author and illustrator (incidentally, who is also scheduled to be one of the instructors at the retreat.
Arts for the Soul is now live! Serafini Studios delivers a new website for John Sant’Ambrogio’s latest venture. John is Principle Cellist for the St. Louis Symphony, and is founding an arts retreat to be held in Steamboat Springs, CO. John’s son-in-law designed the site and Serafini Studios built it out.
