A quick update from Peacock Carter.

Latest projects

As well as my book, MediaWiki Skins Design, being released for pre-order, we've been working on a number of websites which should be released shortly.

These include site waste management business Site Waste Planning, and a new website for the South Shields networking group BNI Cookson.

We've also been busy with corporate identity design projects, too, which we'll hopefully have time to add to our portfolio shortly.

There's anything seriously wrong with the current designs these websites use, but as the content and information contained within them changes, Peacock Carter feel it is appropriate to improve the websites design to better reflect the new information.

Biscuits on Peacock Carter's website Since our website's redesign, (see 'Peacock Carter v2'), you may have noticed the mentions of tea and biscuits scattered throughout the website's copy, and it doesn't lie: we have plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits!
