Isra Mi’raj Holiday

To respect the upcoming Isra Mi’raj national holiday, our office will be closed on Wednesday, July 30, 2008, and we will be back open the next day.

City-Wide Scheduled Power Outages

To our respected clients,

Along with this letter, I regretfully announce that we will have possible scheduled power outages on Friday, July 11 2008 toward Friday, July 25, 2008 due to our nationwide energy crisis. The currently published schedule from our power company indicates that we will have a definitive power outage on the July 11th, 14th, 15th, and 16th, with the remaining dates to be confirmed.

Please kindly note that this will be a force majeure event beyond the scope of our control, but we are working hard to provide optimal services for our clients. We are currently in the process of installing backup generators to provide power and communication, and hopefully our internet connection will not be affected by the outages, since it relies on the city’s cable network to operate. We also hope that the generator installation will be completed before those dates.

To our US-based clients, please note that the power outages are going to be done mainly during our working hours, therefore, our time zone differences may affect our proposed timeline and schedules. For this, on behalf of Neuro-Designs, I apologize.

To our web-hosting clients, please note that this power failure does not affect any of our web-hosting services, since our servers are located in the United States.

We will be on standby and continue working normally supposedly we do not get the outages on those confirmed dates.

Thank you for your understanding.

New Portfolio Viewer

A few days back, we had the chance to upgrade our portfolio viewer to a more simpler and more straightforward method, using the Shadowbox.js Media Viewer. The Shadowbox is one of the most versatile media viewers that we found suitable to enhance our visitors’ experience.

And oh yes, it works smoothly on the iPhone/iPod Touch. As for the other browsers, well… It worked on the Opera Mobile, but not as slick as it is on “the phone that changed the world”.

Vesak Holiday

Our office will be closed on Tuesday, May 20, 2008 for the Vesak national holiday. We will be back open the next day.

Christ Ascension Holiday

Our office will be closed for the upcoming Christ Ascension holiday on Thursday, May 1, 2008. We will be back open on Friday, the next day.

Website Upgrade

Yes, after that long life of version 6 and 7, we finally have the time to fully upgrade our website’s design to something that is more “US”. We also improved the usability, accessibility, and simplicity, all of this for the better of our visitor’s browsing experience. Since we just renovated our home, there will be more new updates over the next few weeks.And oh, yes it does look crappy on IE. But then again, unless it’s a Flash-based website, everything looks crappy in Windows.

Easter Holiday

It’s gonna be another long weekend again this week, our office will be closed from Thursday, March 20, 2008 for the Easter holiday. We’ll be back open on the next Monday. Happy Easter!
