High Profile Website Launches
In the last couple of days Sinister Visions has had the pleasure of launching completely re-vamped and re-designed websites for the TransWorld Halloween & Attractions Show (SVi also completely rebranded that show) and Netherworld Haunted House in Georgia, as well as a very cool new site design for the 13th Floor Haunted House in San Antonio, Texas, created collaboratively with one of the attraction's owners. Check'em out!

Addressing a Misconception
If you are a client whose logo and other graphic assets have been delivered to you, it is your responsibility to provide them to anybody else that might need them. Sinister Visions keeps a backup of your work on file as a courtesy to you (in case your files are lost or corrupted), but is not a Graphics Bank from which you can make a withdrawal at any time.
I realized today that far too many people are sending vendors and other 3rd parties directly to me, expecting me to dig their graphic resources out of archive and upload them (again), and for free. Going forward, after a certain point, I'm going to have to start charging a fee for the time required to re-provide materials that have already been provided. Make no mistake: It is a time drain.
If you need a way to share your files, I strongly recommend Dropbox.com. If you need help setting your files up for sharing, simply ask - I'm happy to help.

AT&T Is Making My Job Difficult
I use AT&T DSL. This week, that's meant NOT having an Internet connection. Why? Nobody knows, but it's certainly adversely affecting my ability to do my job. Case in point: I'm posting this from my iPad via Verizon.
Please bear with me. So far, AT&T has met this challenge by refusing to accept phone calls, providing no explanation or estimate for when it'll be fixed and "Apologizing for the inconvenience". For days, now.
