A few changes…

February 18th, 2010

We’ll soon be implementing a few changes to our products. They will be updated to the latest version of REALbasic, thus any customers using a version of the language that does not have the new text-based controls will be unable to use the demo projects. The products themselves should still work, however.

We may soon be launching a different site to house our REALbasic products, which may result in the names of the products changing. More will come on this as we progress.

Let’s have a sale…

February 4th, 2010

Thanks to all of our wonderful customers, we had a great year in 2009 and 2010 is already looking much brighter…

Expanding the ARBP Discount

February 3rd, 2010

Beginning today, members of the Association of REALbasic Professionals will receive the same discount they received previously on just GraffitiSuite for all products. Every purchase made with the ARBP member coupon code will receive 25% of their total. This is only valid if purchasing directly through our online store, and not via third-party.

Just for kicks…

January 23rd, 2010

I had an urge do some design for fun today. I picked something I enjoy, and built it from scratch in Photoshop. I tried to recreate the atmosphere in which I enjoy this activity the most, and built some the objects you would see there.

I’m curious as to what other designers think of this work, and what their own version might look like. I’d love to see your own work, so throw something together, link it in the comments, and I’ll add them to the gallery!

Another Logo Design Released

January 20th, 2010

Today I was contacted about designing a logo for a magazine-style blog. After talking with the customer for a short period, I felt that I had a handle on what they were looking for. The resulting two designs, which I thought would appeal to their desires, are now in the Portfolio. Any thoughts or comments are welcome.

REALbasic and Snow Leopard: Redraw what?!

January 14th, 2010

A customer has tasked me with updating some of the UI elements in their application. Among the problems they listed was a redraw bug in Snow Leopard, where the controls on windows with a set background color would display a slightly different color in their background even with the Composite property set to True. After about an hour of testing different workarounds, I found what I believe to be an excellent solution.
