Some releases

Wrapping up the last quarter of 2008, we really worked our butts of on a vast variety of web sites, design concepts and a truckload of banners. The bulk of the projects where in cooperation with a few of our business partners, but we also had a couple of outsiders and even a request from the local municipal office.

For starters, we produced the official site for renowned Swedish actor Stefan Sauk. The site is a presentation of the actor and his work and contains movie clips, a picture gallery, biography, interviews and more.
Visit the site here: www.sauk.se.



Lundin Fastighetsbyrå is a real estate agency based in Gothenburg. They wanted to renew their old site and we where happy to oblige.
The result can be viewed here: www.lundin.se.




Libero is one of the leading Swedish producers of diapers and other baby products such as baby oil, wet wipes etc. Along with one of our business partners, we produced a micro-site in flash for their latest product campaign.
View it here: www.libero.se.




One of our business partners (our next door neighbour actually) came to us with a request to produce web sites for a few of their customers (all local companies). They provided the design and we nailed down the construction and back end programming.
Check them out here: www.valutec.se, www.volantic.se, www.simmine.com, www.optronic.se.



Skellefteå Kommun (the local municipal office) web where in desperate need for a overhaulin', and we provided them with the design and layout for the new and improved site. Here you can check out some of the sketches:










Part of our daily routines consists of banner productions for one of our business partners. In November 2008 we set what propably is a world record for banners when the swedish tele-communication company Tele2 launched a massive campaign spanning all medias. Around 750 banners where produced during a 10 day span and the hosting bureau had never seen anything like it.



Oh, by the way ... we produced yet another banner campaign with additional landing sites for IKEA just in time for the christmas break.



All in all we just had a great 2008 and are already way deep in new exciting projects that will launch shortly.

FF3 + Firebug Bug

Seems Firefox 3 in combination with addon FireBug does not play well together when loading and using xml. It is not possible to get into any element in the xml. The only option possible was to disable FireBug completely to get the script working. FireBug is one of the bets addons to FireFox and almost everyone at work has that one installed. What a bummer we cant use it on the web application we are developing.

MySql Stored Procedures Execute Privileges

Just as a reminder to myself and the Tim Crew into databases I'm posting this.
When using SPs on MySql you need to grant execute privileges to the procedure to actually be able to use it. (IMHO if you can create it you should think one could use it but maybe thats just me.)
GRANT EXECUTE ON PROCEDURE db_name.sp_name TO 'some_user'@'some_host';

You can use wildcards if you like...
GRANT EXECUTE ON PROCEDURE *.* TO 'some_user'@'some_host';
