Own a business? Great. On social media? Most likely (If you’re not, you’re missing a whole world of clients).
We’ve written about Pinterest in the past, and how it can benefit your business. However, you might be thinking: “vxFusion is just a web company, of course they think I should be on every social media platform!”. We’ll, we have a handy infographic and an article to support our position. Read more

Or choose Quest Mode, and solve a centuries-old mystery in an immersive adventure.
With Niagara 1812, you carry history with you, in the palm of your hand.
We just launched the website for the new iPhone App game Niagara 1812! The game was a joint project between nGen and Brock University, and was just recently approved for sale in the Apple App Store. The completely custom design features advanced lighting, soft textures, custom vector paper, and the beautiful Google web font IM Fell. For the development of the website we used custom jQuery (JavaScript) and advanced CSS3, all hand-coded of course.

Happy Canada Day!
For the month of July, celebrate Canada Day with a new business card design on us! We’ll design you a new business card to suit your style when you purchase any new website, print, or branding work before July 31, 2010. Valid on all order over $1000. Does not include printing.
Besides creating custom designed websites, we also will build a website that has already been designed (Called Design-to-HTML). Fourgrounds Media Inc, the web-video powerhouse located in downtown St. Catharines (And one of the media companies pioneering a new Canadian silicon valley right here in Niagara), came to us with concept designs and a vision of what they wanted their website to look like. Our job was to build it to exact specifications, and pull-off some crazy JavaScript animation techniques in the mean time, all while making sure everything worked on the iPhone… woah!
Our coding ninjas when straight to work and came out with a website build we are very proud of, to match a design that Fourgrounds Media Inc. graphic designer did an awesome job on as well. Even though we did not do the design on this one (since we are a creative company after-all), we are extremely happy to be a part of the build, and to start a great relationship with Fourgrounds!
