Introducing Our New Creative Team

Posted on 23 Mar 2012 by Chris Ford

We knew there was a lot of Genesis talent out there, but man, we were overwhelmed by just how much we saw!

The level of design, development, illustration, logo design, marketing and copywriting talent we saw was amazing. After a lot of thought, we’ve selected ten members who demonstrate a huge variety of skills.

We’d like to thank everyone who participated…if you didn’t make it this round, we will have another recruiting session in September to add to the team. We’d love for you to expand your portfolio and enter again when you’ve had a chance to see what skills and styles of design we’re be featuring. So, enough stalling. Let’s introduce the All Stars!

Moo is awesome!

After a week of anticipation, our spiffy new business cards are here! Yaaaaay!

Back in February I saw Jacob Cass of Just Creative showing off his awesome new Luxe business cards from Moo.com. I started lusting after my own right then and there.

So after our recent re-brand, and knowing I didn’t want to pass out our *very* pink, *very* old business cards at WordCamp San Diego, I finally ordered some pretty, pretty new cards of my own! While I was at it, I grabbed one of their too cute sticker books with wee little logo stickers to give out! So far I have stickered my computer, phone, message board, and a package I sent out yesterday! I need to slow my roll so I have some left!

Making Things Easier for our Customers

Posted on 09 Mar 2012 by Chris Ford

We’ve taken installing Bluebird Skies down to a few simple steps–and you won’t have to touch a single line of code!

We want to ensure our Makeover Kits are as easy as possible for you to use. So, even though we only launched it a week ago, when we discovered a plug-in by Nick the Geek (a Genesis coder we respect and admire) that would make the installation process ridiculously easy, we re-created everything and re-released the files.

We’ve also created a brand new video showing you every step of the process. It runs about two minutes (and most of that is watching the image files upload). We think you’ll jump for joy when you realize you don’t have to edit functions.php, styles.css, import new Google fonts, or otherwise touch a single line of code.
