Title: Nova Design upgrades Web Site / Lowers Prices!
Post by: kwoodall on October 29, 2008, 12:09:41 AM
Some weeks back Nova Design's web site (www.novadesign.com) was hacked. Our then-host failed to detect or log the hack and lost our backups. So we decided to upgrade the site! About time too.



The new site is online with an all-new webstore and more. We have our demo reel embedded on the front page along with slideshows of our products.  We're driving everything using AJAX and Flash so you better be using the latest/greatest browsing technology. Welcome Nova Design.com to the 21st Century eh?

Our slideshows directly access the all-new Cinematte and ImageFX Flickr groups so PLEASE upload your images and drop them into these groups and your masterpieces will be part of our corporate slideshow automatically. No ads and such tho, please.

Price reductions have been made permanent on ImageFX and Cinematte - so please feel free to shop with us as well!

Enjoy the new site.

my only comment is why bother with the latest technology? it won't work on amiga. kinda of pointless designing flash/ajax when amiga browsers don't support it.  *COUGH*. :-o

Kinda pointless browsing the web with anything that isnt a 32bit PC, windows or Mac.

are you serious or just being sarcastic?

i use ibrowse for web browsing all the time and i still love it. sometimes if i wanna see a css-heavy site i start sputnik, but i really dont miss flash (in fact its good to avoid banners and adverts).

its a bit special but far from pointless. and a company who sell amiga software should have amiga-compatible website. and making a website using {bleep}ty flickr and blogspaces - weird... (but low cost i guess:)

The design isn't bad, but I whole heartedly agree with the idea that the use of flash and scripting is pointless. It doesn't add to the appeal of the site much, and it neglects the target audience's browser capabilities. An Amiga-centric site should be Amiga compatible.

Nix the flash and scripting.
