WEB DEVELOPMENT:

Studio531 offers custom web design, web development and flash animation for all kinds of web projects. Whether you're looking for a simple design that effectively penetrates your target market on the web or you're a large company that outsources design work to independent contractors, we can effectively design and deploy the site or project you're looking for.

Depending on your budget and what the goals are for your particular project, we typically perform all of the scripting, database integrations, and ecommerce setups. Sometimes we suggest outsourcing options, sometimes not. It just depends on your individual situation. Building a custom website can be a very complicated task and a very time consuming one depending on what is required for the frontend and the backend. There are new programming languages that seem to be born on a daily basis, so instead of writing a long paragraph on it, or listing all the languages we've written in, it's easier just to point you to our client website designs, so you can see what we're capable of. Please note that next to each screenshot thumbnail image is an explanation of the scripting languages used for that particular project. If you're into all the languages, then this will identify them for you.
