Site content you will provide


Textual content

You will need to give us the majority of text for your Starter Website, culled from your current marketing materials. Content should be in digital formats such as txt, rtf, odt, doc, or simply pasted into an email. Transcription of scans, faxes, and printed material takes time, and may result in extra costs.

Logo

Provide us with your logo in high quality digital format, preferably vector. If you don’t have a professionally crafted logo, but have chosen a typeface, color scheme, and/or “just a quick sketch” image you’ve used for business cards, stationery, or advertising, please scan it at a minimum of 450 dpi to a JPG, TIFF, or PNG file.

Photographs

You may send us up to 5 photographs to use on your Starter Website. Please send us the largest versions of the photos you can, in digital format like raw, jpg, or tiff. We will do any basic color correction, exposure compensation, or cropping if necessary.

Writers Group’s First Book Publication

Tapestry in Words

A short time ago, we had the privilege of assisting the members of the Cercle de Plume with publishing their first collection of writings, Tapestry in Words. The content of the book is from a presentation they participated in March, 2011. The 119 page book is a participant memento, and not currently for resale to the public, but maybe one day soon. Congratulations all, and thank you for the positive feedback!
