OUT THERE PRODUCTIONS is always curious about how others develop their sites and the applications they use, so we set this area aside for those of you who share this need to know...

We receive lots of inquiries about why our site doesn't showcase our flash, graphics and web development skills and techniques. Our answer is simple: we kept in line with our site's objective to provide information on our services, and how they can help you meet your marketing communications objectives.

We're real fans of Macromedia products, and use Dreamweaver to develop the basics of this site. We're experienced in a host of other web applications (FrontPage, et.), bur team finds Dreamweaver one of the best web development applications for mid to large-sized sites. It's easy to learn, extremely powerful, and provides the most bang for our buck. Other client projects call for more extensive backends and java-based needs, and we readily meet those challenges with a variety of other skills and tools, including ColdFusion.

The images used on our home page were created using photographs purchased from Photospin. We also use - and recommend - a variety of other image sites (Getty, Comstock, Artzooks, Veer and IndexStock, to name a few), but we're a real fan of Photospin's low prices and variety.

Adobe's Photoshop and ImageReady were used to create the graphics and buttons you see throughout our site. These applications are the all-time blue-ribbon winners creating for web-ready images.

Our site was tested and found compatible with Netscape's Navigator (versions 4.2 and above, all current platforms) and Microsoft's Internet Explorer (versions 4.0 and above, all current platforms), as well as Opera and Firefox.

Prior to posting this site for public viewing, we performed usability and heuristic tests to enhance both our navigation and overall interface. We emphasize the importance of this service to our clients, and provide it as part of our web development services.

The site is presently hosted on Irides servers, although we work with several other hosts such as Verio, Yahoo, Earthlink and larger hosting services, to provide our clients the best home that suits both their needs and price range.

A back end handles page updates, content additions and regularly-scheduled, automated maintenance.

All content is written specifically for this site by us and is copyright-protected. If you have any comments or suggestions for possible articles or edits to existing ones, we're all ears: please contact us.

And yes, we designed our own logo!
