badwood is happy to announce the launch of another succesful website. We spent more than a year building and reorganizing goodwill’s website. Along with the update to their internal forms and their client donor system badwood helped integrate and all of these parts into the new whole which we and the client are delighted with. badwood continues to host and maintain the site and we hope this is the beginning of a long relationship with the well thought of and highly green brand of Goodwill Industries.
Many designers and artists use Pantone products to help deliver and coordinate color between vendors and on projects but recently after updating our PMS books to the new Color Bridge Plus books we ran across a not to well know fact that we would like to share. Read this article from shutter bug.com and you will be surprised what you find. On a recent job we just happen to pick 466c for the main color of a product. We use pantone more and more for web work and so purchased the new web print process color bridge version about a year ago but it seems yesterdays PMS 466 is not today’s PMS 466. We were somewhat surprised about the lack of coverage this had on the web as well as good information from Pantone. This could be a source of great confusion for many designer’s printer’s, programmer’s and artisit’s. It was quite a surprise to us and our clients.

Today we launched our new website in beta. The addition of so many new features brought us to the realization that we had an opportunity to test the site in new ways as well as motivate ourselves to do continued updates and test all the way up and down the stack.We will be updating the site continuously from today forward and we should be out of beta in about two weeks. All status updates and additions will be logged in the web log.
