Showcase: Easy College Mealsby |
Easy College Meals is an online cooking resource geared toward college students seeking simple meal solutions. By utilizing popular social networking sites, Easy College Meals has successfully promoted recipes and maintains consistent traffic. We will take you on a tour focusing on the specific layout features and common promotional practices that have made Easy College Meals a success.
A Refreshing Look / Content
Color. Easy College Meals changes not only its recipes but also its color scheme to match the current season. Color is a very simple update to make which surprisingly makes a huge difference to the look of a website. Simple color suggestions such as bright greens to suggest a spring picnic, creamy oranges and reds to mimic the fall leaves and pumpkins, and icy blues to suggest the cold weather mimic the current weather outside which makes the website seem current.

COPPR Launches New Policy Databaseby |
Washington University’s Center for Obesity Policy & Prevention Research new database is officially up and running. With funding from the Missouri Foundation for Health, COPPR tapped Matchbox to design and build a database to help “explore and identify the existing policies on healthy eating and physical activity in Missouri.”
It’s a bit of a mouthful we know. But what this really means is COPPR has made their internal Missouri health policy reviews available to the public. Better yet it looks pretty cool thanks to the integration of Microsoft’s ASP.NET Charting components. Ever wonder what kind or how many health policies exist in your community? Why don’t you check out the COPPR Database now?

There is no greater compliment than when a fellow designer features your work.
We’ve been busy rebranding as part of our third anniversary and its nice to see that work paying off. Graham Smith of imjustcreative featured our new design on his August 14th Logo Design RoundUp blog. We know, maybe we should have seen this sooner but we did say we’ve been busy didn’t we? Expect to see our new website rolled out very soon, we can hardly contain our excitement.
