What do you have to show for what you've done before?
Many of our clients include hard-working Visual Designers, Producers, and business owners discovering relief from the technical aspects of web development. Some clients simply need a little extra help completing various web projects on time. Please contact us to see more, as many projects cannot be published online. 
How quickly can you deliver?
It's up to you to decide. What's your deadline? Quevin can work with your needs, and will develop a project plan that fits your own deadlines.
 Can you provide graphic and visual design?
Yes, we can design an entire Web site or simply touch-up a single graphic. We understand all image formats, and know how to optimize for the Web. The images you'll receive from us will render beautifully, look crisp, and load as quickly as possible, in any browser.

Help! Project Rescue and Salvage

It happens.
You've started a project with another developer or firm, and then your project was abandoned for some reason. The developer goes missing. Or, it simply wasn't working out. We can help! Please tell us more, and then let's meet to discuss how we can rescue and complete your project. We have experience with this. (888) 420-4571 / (415) 814-0622

Content & Code

Which browsers do you test in?
Your pages are tested in the following most recent browsers on PC and Mac platforms:
  • MS IE 8 and 9
  • Firefox
  • Safari
  • Chrome
  • Others upon request...
How can I provide you with various project requirements?
Use the Quick Start form to begin or call us: (888) 420-4571 or (415) 814-0622. You can also use Photoshop to create notes on the design itself. We'll personally ask you to describe your project in detail (i.e. Flash movies, text you want as an image, expandable DIVs).
Do you code any "Web 2.0" JavaScript, DOM or AJAX?
Quevin can code most of what you need from scratch, or by utilizing the latest JavaScript libraries (JQuery, MooTools, Prototype, Yahoo! UI, etc.). Specify whether you want to use any particular JavaScript library like MooTools , jQuery , Yahoo! UI or Prototype . We prefer jQuery, since it's what Drupal has adopted.

Project Source Files

What should I provide Quevin to begin my Web project without delay?
Photoshop PSD's are preferred as the source for your Web development, but AI, PNG or JPG (in high quality) is also OK. If you have any custom fonts used in the design, those will also be required. You can also provide any related code to help us meet certain requirements of yours. Otherwise, our goal is to provide the best markup to reasonably match your mock-up.
How can I send you all of the files for my project?
One compressed file (.zip, .rar or .tar) is best, especially if there are more than a few files to manage. You can add this to the Quick Start form, or we'll provide an FTP account to upload everything to.
Will you return source files with slice guides?
Once the project is complete, everything you provided will be returned along with related assets produced. You'll therefore be able to make as many changes as you like without us. Or we can make future changes for you, of course.
Do you use source control?
Of course! We utilize Git source control with Github.com or Unfuddle.com to host our repositories privately with more backups at Amazon S3. We also use localized backup methods, checking all work into the repository early and often. Nothing gets lost, and we hold on to your source repository for at least six months following project completion.

Methods of Payment

How can we pay for everything?
VISA / MC / AMEX credit cards, bank transfer, or certified checks are OK. All prices are expressed in USD and tax is included.
When do I provide payment to start my project?
You will be required to pay a portion (usually 50%) before the project begins. All related assets for each project are owned by Quevin, LLC until payment has been received in-full according to the billing terms agreed to.

Your Privacy

Will my project be made public?
Quevin will ask for permission to publish thumbnails of your design or example code upon project completion. You own the images & code we provide, and the creative elements are always yours. Quevin has no right to use your example without explicit permission.
Will you keep a backup copy of my project?
Archives will be retained for up to six months. Quevin recommends that you keep your content and code in secure storage once you've received everything.
