Business-cards.com redesigned by Squared Eye

Squared Eye has been up to some more
mischief as of late. I am psyched to announce the refresh of

***************************************************

Business-cards.com

***************************************************
The original design needed some serious TLC and Squared Eye pulled
out all the stops on this redesign. A lot of careful consideration was put
into each detail of the usability, freshness, and integrity of the site.

The basic functionality of the site wasn’t up for a change, but we did
do a bit more than skin it. Its been updated to the latest TXP build
and uses a great TXP infrastructure thanks to the Bombsite, and
some great form plugin work from Hakjoon.

Great job all. I think I’ll have a tall maudite to mark the occasion.

Re: Business-cards.com redesigned by Squared Eye

Hey, another good-lookin’ site from the ol’ SquaredEye. Nice one, Mr matthew and co. Huge improvement over the original look.

It’s easy to find your way around thanks to the colour blocks; there’s big stuff in the right places that points you where you need to be; nothing seems to get in the way of using it; and I’ve not had to hunt for anything yet, unlike many sites out there.

In short, I like it. Kudos.

Of course, I’d never be seen dead or alive with 98.7% of those backdrops on my business card, but that’s nothing to do with the redesign ;-)

Stef,
What! I can’t believe you don’t want this one :). Thankfully, you can upload your own design too. Thanks for the props. We’re pretty happy with the outcome :)

Re: Business-cards.com redesigned by Squared Eye

Very clean and fresh. Easy to use.

Reckon you should check over all the links. “Contact us” on this page http://business-cards.com/customized-calling-cards for example goes to http://squaredeye.business-cards.com/contact-us

And “Submit” here http://business-cards.com/business-card-magnets doesn’t open in a popup.

Re: Business-cards.com redesigned by Squared Eye

Is it just me or are all the links not working?

Great design though… I was just looking in this section to see if anyone has done a site like this, lots of sections, categories etc.

How do you get your categories to appear as their name in the url:

business-cards.com/business-card-categories/musical

I’ve used categories on one site and my links look like his:

slatterycoaching.com.au/category/About/

Can I pick your mind on how you’ve done certain things if needed please :)

The “Business Card Categories” links do not work from here either. They are all redirected to the home page.

Matthew, great looking design!!

Re: Business-cards.com redesigned by Squared Eye

I think the client put a redirect in place and that’s why that’s happening.
