Malaysia website design blog
Stumbled across TypeNavigator by accident while looking for appropriate typefaces to be used. It’s a very interesting tool and it has the interactivity like a color blender except we’re dealing with elements of more personality.
When choosing a typeface for a logo or copy, it’s important that the logo is able to project the communicative message of the brand or the consistency with the brand. This is the experience TypeNavigator gives you when selecting a typeface.
Back in 2005 during Website Mention Time, I spoke of the lovely couple; Nate and Jessica’s wedding website. It was a simple website with soft wedding colours and it had all the basic things their friends or family far away would love to learn about them.
Now come this year, I’ve found a new wedding website belonging to Susan and Jason who are tying the knot on the wonderful date 11th November 2006. A hearty congratulations to both individuals who’re becoming a single item.
It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these so time to get the old gears a cranking. Digitalmash is the portfolio of a fine Australian based designer; Rob. The website complies to website standards and though it uses Flash, you know I’ve no complaints to the ones that entertain and at least take advantage of Flash.
The website follows a very monochromatic tone with strong black and grey hues. So if you’re looking for something cheerful to brighten you up, I suggest jumping right to Rob’s portfolio.
The 7Creation website is currently hosting a graphic competition organized by the people who run Labuan.net In a bid to help promote the arts and culture scene in Malaysia, they’ve come up with a challenge for anyone to participate.

Before I get started, please remember that all reviews are done honestly by me as a single website designer and someone who takes into account the usability of the website heavily. Some of the things mentioned might be of personal preference but if you can never accept it then please refrain from reading on.
My all-time listening radio station has gotta be Hitz FM ever since it launched a long time ago. I remember always trying to wake up early and listening to the comedy of Lil Kev and Fly Guy. During that time it was the golden years for Hitz FM Morning Crew and I still miss it. Maybe the duo could start an online podcast thing for the people who remember them.
Anyway, this exclusive review is written to assist in a media student’s research or survey before taking on the task of trying to redesign the Hitz FM website. Melisa Lim of uNCUT…uNPLUGGED…uNCENSORED is doing a Hitz FM Web Survey.
So let’s get started. *knuckles cracking*
We’ve got a local game retail shop making some news in the newspapers and magazines since last year. All of which belong to Software Boutique that runs the online website, Gamers.com.my Though the original game scene isn’t very supported by many here since the comparison of value you get between the original and pirated version doesn’t show significant value.
Unless of course you compare to games like World of Warcraft – though there have been cases of piracy for that as well. Anyway, the piracy is the ‘yang’ and it’s bound to be around in order for balance of the gaming industry in some way. Before I float off further into some psychological frenzy, here’s an exclusive review of the Gamers.com.my website.
Ever since the consumer market has been penetrated by fitness centres like Fitness First, there have been many other big fitness facility providers emerging and one opened by Jackie Chan to boot.
When you (assumingly someone who’s interested in joining the club) visit the website, what are the things you’d be looking out for? Or what would your surfing waves be like?
During the celebration of The Star’s 10th Anniversary, they did it with technological grace by launching a new look for their website; TheStar.com.my Little did they know the crowd back in 2005 was already very demanding especially those who read online content.
Okie, maybe I’m exaggerating the last sentence since not many in Malaysia actually care about usability and accessibility half the time. However, I’ve been specially requested to review few other online newspapers in follow up of my own; The Star Online.
In this review, I’ve covered Los Angeles Times, New York Times, Daily Telegraph, The Times UK, Washington Post, Guardian Unlimited, and Independent.
Scenic beauty and ambience is what I feel when browsing through United Kingdom’s Gemstone Home Improvements. It’s blood colored background with the essence of abstract expression along with it’s wood type surface of the interface gives the website a sense of satisfaction.
Just what the interior designer might have ordered in appreciation of his/her eye for artistry in solid objects.
The Malaysian version of Creative Commons (CC) have been the talk since sometime last year. It was a sheer surprise to have the non-governing organization enter our shores and help budding talents protect their work whilst allowing them to share it online. Placing any work online has risk of plagiarism or piracy but CC tries to lessen these things.
What is Creative Commons about?
