notes from 13thirtyone: 13thirtyone is in Create Magazine!

13thirtyone is in Create Magazine!

I have very exciting news today... 13thirytone is in the September/October 2007 issue (currently on newsstands) of Create Magazine twice! You can find me on page 25 under the Midwest news section. This blurb is simply about news and events. 13thirtyone received a mention for being featured in next month's HOW Design Magazine. Very exciting.

Even more thrilling (and jumping to page 37), the 13thirtyone website is one of only five featured websites for excellence in design and usability! They even have a screenshot of the site! Find blurb below:


13thirtyone is a design firm out of Hudson, WI. The site provides an excellent example of the company's Web design capabilities. A fast-loading Flash site that transitions well and quickly displays sample design work, 13thirtyone.com does not get bogged down by the typical lags that make visitors want to click away from a Flash site seconds after entering it. Simple navigation and well-highlighted hot points help visitors find what they're looking for and keep the interest of those with short attention spans. Designed by 13thirtyone Design.


Now, when I saw the call for businesses to enter their websites for recognition, it was purely for design. Little did I know that they'd be commenting on the efficiency of the site loading. With that said, 13thirtyone is solely responsible for the design and navigational structure of the site. However, credit must be given to a dear friend of mine, Gabe Morton-Cook who helped me to finish building my site as a wedding gift. You can visit Gabe's website at http://www.morton-cook.com/. Thank you so much for your help, Gabe!
