Alternative to Flowers? Send a Framed Gift - Gift Philosophy

Wahoo, we have just completed the long awaited online shopping store for Gift Philosophy - Beautiful personalised frames, delivery to your door – Super stylish frames, sent direct to your loved ones door step, all gift wrapped and personalised.

Surrect Media developed the Gift Philosophy brand, then we created the custom e-commerce store with some major additions. The user can customise the chosen frame by adding a photo to their cart, crop it and save it for the photo to be inserted before sending out. Want to send the same frame, photo and personal additions to more than one person? No problem, just duplicate the product in your cart and add the additional delivery address...no constraints!

This is a sexy, elegant site with an easy to use system which lets the user quickly and effortlessly make a very bespoke gift purchase online very quickly, we hope you like the site and maybe even next time you need a gift delivering - this site will be on your list!

360 Golf Course Virtual Tour - Anyone?

Surrect's photographic company - 360 Digital Imaging has just finished test photos at "Los Naranjos" Golf Club Marbella - The idea is to allow the golfers to VIRTUAL inspect and "walk-through" the course.

This will be a service that will be offered to any golfer around the world that wants to have a look at the featured golf courses on the coast line of Spain. The idea is to put the virtual tour(s) on a touch screen system in a golf shop/golf organiser and allow the customer to pick the coruse they would like to play, this then could be transferd on to a USB pen - by the club, golf organiser or both for the customer to take away with them.

The world be comes very small with the addition of digital media - I hope we can work with the Spanish golf clubs to make this a great option for the golfing fraternity.

Here are the test photos for the first hole! 360 "Los Naranjos" Golf Club Marbella
So what do you think to the idea? Let me hear your thoughts!?

PicFree - Free Business Stock Photos

This is a newly released project developed in conjunction with Darrin & Paula Stevens, Zack Brown and Graham Barlow helped to create this simple online stock photography website for business and students. All developed in FLEX – this is a new type of Flash site, updateable content on the fly, search facility and payment connection...super sexy!

The site offers free (800px) photos for anyone to use within any production/material – if you want a high resolution image you can purchase it for a one off fee, all images are the same cost – this then goes to the running costs of the servers and equipment.

I think there are some fantastic photos on the site – certainly some will appear on some of our work/presentations and will be a valuable source of photographs and inspiration for us...I hope it makes it in to your helpful resources bookmark.

Check out the site at www.picfree.co.uk and hope you find that photo you need.
