My Wix Webfomercials

Thought I would create a Webfomercials using Adobe Action script. This was actually for a Wix contest they were having. No, I didn't win it though.

Send me some feed back or at least tap your shoes!

New eCommerce Features

Wix is coming along really nicely with its ecommerce features. They've upgrade their ecart functionalities substantially. Its now super easy to sell anything only in just minutes. Clients have been loving it.

Wix gets Mobile

I just tested Wix M. (Mobile) - it works great. Basically in the past when someone using and iphone would get that nasty error message. (although it was fine for Android) - now it will automatically default to a mobile app custom made to your requirements. check http://m.wix.com/gobirdie/wixlab#home_page
This is probably not in Flash enabled platform Wix is using, since the iPhone doesn't read flash, so its a probably using basic html or better yet html5. This is just awesome.

Sports Websites

A basketball management attorney in New York asked me for a new website for his firm. I didn't want to create something boring since basketball is one of my all time favorite sports. So I added some extra flavor to it. It was to my true amazement that I was able to import a ActionScript file into Wix! This opened a whole new relm of possibilities. If I could import .fla file then I could add some great animation to the work I was doing. Check the site's About page, lower left. He wouldn't let me use it on the homepage because it still takes too long to load. I had to agree.

Professional Websites

One of the first project I did using Wix was for a client called Brandi in Los Angeles. She's a TV Host, Speaker, and Philanthropist who wanted a simple looking website that she could manage herself from time to time. I normally start my design work on Photoshop then transfer psd files to html (or png in this Wix case). I had done a few attempts using Wordpress layouts but somehow it just didn't cut it. So I showed Brandi the site I made using Wix and she preferred it to the Wordpress site.  Since using Wix is far more easier, I was kinda of glad.

Filmmaker website

A filmmaker in Thailand asked that I build a website for her upcoming new film. The Wife Master. The title alone made it interesting enough to take the challenge. She gave me tons of great pics and a music theme that till this day I can't get out of my head. I wanted to stretch Wix as much as possible on this one. Since in the past I had issues loading files like .fla, I decides to take a youtube image, stretch it, and play it in the background. The out come with some superimposed images make this site very unique and in tune with the spirit of her indie film.

HTML arrives

The rumor are over and its official, Wix will now allow us to embed html into our websites. Not sure if you realize what an huge opportunity this is for all of us. Using iFrame we're able to integrate a world of cool apps, gadgets, and widgets. Html is the foundation to all operating languages and having Wix bridge its platform to all the html opportunities out there, tells me a lot about where this company is taking us and the people's vision behind it. To start I'm adding Facebook connect everywhere. Then Google calender and maps. After that I'll stop over at jotforms.com and finally integrate the various registration pages clients have asked me to build. (I've been hating to take them to a new browser window to fill out a form or something), I'ma gonna be busy.
