Web Designs

If you need your car detailed while you're at home or work, mobile detailing companies offer the perfect solution with no loss of time on your end. To complement the convenience factor of the website, we create an eye-catching HTML5 website with a simple single column layout and easy navigation. Our custom illustrated header provides a strong introduction to the website, focusing on the company's branding (sky blue and red colors) and the theme of car washing (bubbles, gleaming tires, etc.).

For pro soccer/football player and rapper Tam Nsaliwa, we created a site full of media, both from his sports and music, and focused on an easily-navigated portrait of him as a person. In order to give a rustic look to the site, all elements are moderate in tone, and backgrounds are largely comprised of rough, aged textures. Search engine optimization is focused on beginning a campaign to make his official website the top destination for anyone seeking news about Tam from the many countries he played in professionally.

This is an ASP designed web site for a fund raising company based in San Diego. The company focuses on schools and other youth oriented fund raising and needed their web site optimized in order to bring in new customers. Site content focuses on database retrieval, product display and use of forms. Coalminds provided search engine optimization with the company's provided keyword phrases, and helped them narrow down their keywords to those with the best combination of likely use and increased traffic.

Our key understanding in both web design and search engine optimization is the realization that increased visitor traffic is not the only step involved. We'll help you work on link exchanges, content adjustment, and all other required steps.

This mobile sommelier app also features a dual pairing section, where a user can enter TWO foods that a single wine will work well with (ideal for those planning dinners or out on dates). mWine contains over 10,000 unique pairings and is constantly updated with new food pairing requests made by users.




'The Waiting Room', an original web comic painted and written by Stephen Broome, is now available for your iPhone and iPod Touch. The app takes full advantage of several of these devices' visual features, including a high resolution screen and accurate touch sensitivity.

The navigation in this web comic is simple, offering page advance and reverse as well as the ability to jump to the cover or end of any given issue. Instead of using normally sized word balloon displays, the app offers a unique way to read dialogue and other text. By clicking on a series of balloons and caption icons in order, the relevant text is displayed in a text field at the top of the app. This not only ensures that the reading sequence is clear to even the newest of comic book readers, but allows as much room as possible for display of the full color artwork.
