You might have been wondering what we’ve been up to from March until now, and well, you can see we’ve been pretty busy with 2 website releases within 2 days. Labgfx.com has just completed Surrealistic Producing Effects, LLC’s brand new website, SPEffects.com. This site design incorporates all of the eye candy goodies people love to see, in a very minimalistic approach of course.
Todd Palamar, of SPEffects.com provided Labgfx with great pre-rendered animations for his brand new flash banners on the home page. They advertise his 2 new technical books, Maya Cloth for Characters and Maya Feature Creatures: Second Edition.
The new site uses simple PayPal forms to get shopping done quickly. No overly complicated e-cart system was needed here. We also converted a forum on the old site into a blog for Todd on the redesigned site. There he can post news, tutorials or production updates for his all CG movie, Human Food.
We’ll still be working with Todd for roughly another month to polish and fine-tune small details on the site. Since we are both technical and creative people, nothing ever seems good enough for us.
Check out more details on our Showcase page, which also includes a before and after screen shot. Thanks for choosing Labgfx Todd!

We were approached by Jason Layton and Michael D’Andrea, both co-owners of Elegant Slideshows; a small business located in Long Island, New York. They create beautiful montages based on photos chosen by the customer. Combined with music this always ends up being a very emotional and unique gift.
Being able to order a slide show montage online seems rather complicated, but not with Elegant Slideshows slick new website developed by Labgfx.com. All a user needs to do is quickly register on the website, start uploading photos and press a button to request a quote for that event. Next either Jason or Michael contacts you directly to iron out any details, and presto! Your slide show montage gets shipped out right away.
Whether you are looking for a creative gift or trying to make a special moment more memorable, be confident that these guys at Elegant Slideshows will do their best. In fact, they personally guarantee it on their homepage.
Also, don’t forget to check out our showcase where we explain some of our technical challenges and solutions for their new website. Thanks guys!

We’re very excited to say Labgfx is now proud corporate charity sponsor, helping raise money for The Providence Academy. Providence means “To Provide”. This Not for Profit school with two campuses in Orlando, they provide a very unusual program to students who do not fit within the box of public or private school. Their students come to them with a variety of diagnoses including High Functioning Autism, Pervasive Developmental Disorders, Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD and Learning Disabilities.
We are able to sponsor The Providence Academy through Jonathan Czarny and The One Lap of America (OLOA) motorsport event. Czarny and his co-driver Jonathan Miller will be driving cross-country to race track to race track all to raise money for The Providence Academy. The competition is based around getting the fastest time rather than wheel-to-wheel racing.
Best of luck guys, we’re looking forward to seeing photos of the event and will be checking your travel blog daily! Also, be sure to check out our new page called ‘Charities‘, dedicated to this great event.
