Ready to Dine in Doha?
September 8th, 2010
A site our web designers really enjoyed working on and one of our latest creations, Dining in Doha.
This is a great site, that we had the freedom to design pretty much as we wanted. The graphic design this time was developed by Luke and has to be said, it’s a great piece of work. The black background and bright colours work well and bring the site to life.
Users can search for restaurant reviews by food type, area or name as well as add their own thoughts and reviews of restaurants they have visited.
Google Maps has been integrated into the site allowing users to find the exact location of each restaurant too, which is a nice touch.
Eddy has done a great job in project managing the site development and we are sure our client is just as happy as we are. As a website redesign how can we tell the project was a success? In the first 3 days of the new site going live, it received 1700 unique visitors which is unprecidented as it was getting that only every 2 weeks before!
Licence to PR
September 8th, 2010
We could get really creative for this new site, recently launched. Licence to PR wanted to present their 60 second pitch on the homepage so we had to find a way to do this in an imaginative way. Check out the site to ssee how we did it.
The graphic design of the site was developed by Craig, who as usual we think has done a first class job and managed to bring in all the desired design aspects very nicely.
Our web designers have used some clever for the 60 second pitch as well as developing a content management system for our client to update the site content whenever they like in real-time.
Thanks to Stewart for project managing the site design and development, another successful project of his!
Great Place To Work
September 8th, 2010
Want to know which place is a great place to work? Check out one of our latest web designs and you’ll be in the know.
Peppercorn has created a great site, graphic design by Luke that allows our client to update all of the content on the pages using a content management system that we custom developed. Our client has full control over text formatting and images within the pages, as well as control over the text that appears in the right hand column of each page.
Timescales were tight for this and meeting them was a challenge but overall we think the site looks great and includes everything our client asked for.
Again, hats off to Eddy and our web designers for developing this website.
Sport Search
September 8th, 2010
Summer 2010 has been a very busy time for Peppercorn with seven website launches! One of these was Sport Search, a great new site that allows sports clubs, coaches, officials, sports teachers offering lessons, sports halls and facilites, as well as members of sports clubs all the register in one central place and find each other. The benifits of the site to the sports world are huge as this will be the site where they can all connect and keep in touch.
Thegraphic design of the site was developed by Craig who gave the site a clean look and feel making it very easy for the user to find their way around and register for what they are looking for.
For our web designers it was a challenge to get the various groups, account types and the different types of registration data together and then develop a search that was showing all the correct results but as always, we managed it.
Lastly, there is a content management system for our client to log in a access all the registered users and user types and make any changes to the site that need to be done.
Well done to Eddy for project managing the development of the site, it’s a job well done. Check out the website and let us know what you think.

December 5th, 2009
2009 was the year to celebrate Peppercorns’ 10th birthday. A new site was launched this week at www.peppercorn.co.uk to celebrate the occasion with a new portfolio page showcasing our latest and best work over the last 10 years.
Its been a long road as web designers that has seen us develop hundreds of websites, big and small, online games and many other online applications. We’ve meet many people, heard many ideas and made many of these ideas reality.

Google Labs presents its latest experiment Fast Flip.
Fast Flip aims to combine the traditional elements of flipping through recent news articles, headlines and popular topics. Flipping through articles is very fast with use of horizontal sliding panels. At the same time it allows sharing content with friends and community, alongside personalising the experience by taking cues from what articles you browsed.
Google believes Fast Flip has a role in providing solutions to today’s challenges in the publishing industry.
