YouTube Fun
The Expendables

It doesn't make the film look any better but certainly this is a clever use of YouTube.

Print Catalogue
Photographic Exhibition

Hot of the press and delivered just in time for the London opening of the International Print Exhibition we wanted to show off this year's catalogue.

It's now four years since we won the contract to design the coveted catalogue. This sits alongside a wide range of other projects we currently handle on behalf of The Royal Photographic Society.

It's a beautiful item, which includes some amazing images and will be for sale through The Society's online shop.

Well done to all the successful photographers who were selected for this years exhibition.

World Wetland Network
Global Reach

We have just launched a couple of small scale, multi-lingual websites for WWN and WLI.

Both sites are using some fancy Google map API to feature Wetlands around the world and either allow the user to vote for their favourite (WWN) or view their facilities (WLI).

They may be small but they are perfectly formed.

More World Cupness
Calendar System

I had to share this super cool world cup 2010 calendar. It's a really nice example of simple user experience graphic design and has been very well thought out and executed.

Somerset Leisure
Active Mind and Body

We are currently in development of a slick new website for Somerset Leisure Centres and thought we would give you a sneak preview. 

They have only recently established independence from their previous council run position and Omni are walking them through the whole process making it as pain free and exciting as possible.

Drive The A-Team Van
YouTube meets Google

I found this online and was overwhelmed at how well it has been done. YouTube meets the 3D Google Earth plugin…meets…the A-Team!

Click on the 'Drive the Van' button at the bottom of the video and find yourself driving The A-Team van in major cities around the world, or even drop into a fast run down Mount Everest.

After a while of playing you realise that if you keep driving you would actually be able to just keep going around the world and it all becomes a little overwhelming. Give it five years and higher-res mapping, faster fiber broadband speeds and a nifty pair of internet glasses and you will find yourself driving a real car through any city or landscape in the world.

WWT Consulting
Website Launch

We have just launched a lovely new website for WWT Consulting

The site includes some subtle home page Flash animation which helps bring the website to life, reflecting the environmental work they do. The site also includes a sophisticated Google map API integration allowing users to search and drill down into their global projects.

It also features a multilingual option including Arabic, Spanish and Chinese, which had to include a complete reversal of the CSS to account for Arabic text reading from right to left.

WWT Consulting is the UK’s leading specialist wetland consultancy and provides species surveys, habitat creation, restoration, management and visitor centre design services to clients worldwide. The consultancy is based at Slimbridge, Gloucestershire, the headquarters of the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust to whom it returns all of its profits to.

Visit the WWT Consulting Website.

Marque-It website Live
New and Used Cars

We have just launched the BETA website for Marque-it. As a launch offer they are currently offering FREE ad space for people selling their new or used, prestige and performance cars (as long as they are over £8000.00). The offer will only be open for the next couple of weeks until the website is well-populated, so feel free to send it around to anyone you think might be interested. The first 20 get to go onto the home page featured ads. There is also a TV commercial being launched next week, so it should get some considerable user figures very quickly (www.marque-it.com).

Omni produced the 'Marque-It' branding, website, together with supporting printed marketing materials and the featured home page game. (Full case study to follow).

YouTube and BBC down
Happens to the biggest

Scarily, the YouTube website went down today for a few minutes, and we noticed that the BBC website went down a couple of days ago as well, which just goes to show that even the monsters of the net sometimes have bugs and server issues once in a while.

Note on the image below quite how bad the YouTube error message is. Not sure the developers would like to be referred to as 'Highly trained monkeys'? We also didn't cut off 'situat', that is how it displayed. :-)

FFF Announced
Finish at Five on Fridays

We announced last week the start of the, oh so very popular, 'F.F.F.' campaign, standing for 'Finish at Five on Fridays'. 

It's all about enjoying a little more of life, a little more sun and a little more time for fun......all subject to delivery deadlines....obviously. ;-)

We are sure that heightened productivity and general moral boosting would more than balance out the loss of hours, or may even slightly improved on it, so we're willing to give it a go.
