Edmonton, AB (PRWEB) June 26, 2007 -- Parade Portfolio Management Tools officially launches at www.getparade.com, boasting a smart, simple and elegant solution to online portfolio management for photographers and creative professionals.

Understanding the importance, within the portfolio-driven creative industry, of making a high-impact statement, Parade provides its clients with stunning photography website design (http://www.getparade.com/designs) options to showcase their work online. All of the customizable, fully editable templates feature clean, uncluttered designs, artistic composition, crisp transition effects, sleek functionality and responsive galleries.

To offer more choice and selection for its customers, Parade has created two distinct collections of editable template designs - Parade Premium and Parade Pro. "We want to make sure our customers select a photography website design that not only communicates their unique sense of style but also matches their pocketbooks", says Micah Slavens, Co-Founder and Principal of Parade Portfolio Management Tools (http://www.getparade.com). Parade's newest template collection, Parade Pro, uses leading-edge technology and progressive design techniques to feature slick, highly innovative, highly usable navigation and controls, huge, quick-loading images and automatic re-sizing of images to the user's screen.

On the back-end, all of Parade's fully editable photography website templates (http://www.getparade.com/designs) are powered by an agile, full-featured, highly intuitive website management tool, which runs on a monthly subscription basis. Using a simple, web-based approach, Parade users have easy, instant and portable control of their online portfolios. Big buttons, DRAG & DROP interaction and clear in-line instructions throughout the application let users dive in and become experts at managing their website in minutes. Elevating the overall user experience and eliminating the need for cumbersome manuals or tutorials provide immediate and tangible value for the photographer.

"Parade was designed to make the photographer happy," explains Micah. "Too often, software becomes bogged down with complicated functions and unnecessary features that get in the way and make things more frustrating and time-consuming than they need to be.

From the first day of development, the goal was to design a tool with a clear purpose, focused functionality - geared specifically toward the needs of photographers and creative professionals ( I like this phrase, but seo would say use photographers instead)- and an obvious and very friendly interface, allowing users to get in, get out and move on…but have fun in the process. Parade accomplishes this by staying one step ahead of the game, anticipating the questions and answering them before they need to be asked. Every screen, every tool, and how the user might respond, is carefully thought through. The result is a smart application that makes sense and works great.

The real value comes in the ongoing subscription to Parade. After the one-time set-up fee for the photography website template, it's month-by-month pay-as-you-go. Parade's standard editing tools and features include unlimited galleries, unlimited images, unlimited content pages, a full-featured blog, music, a secure client area, website customization, hosting, domain registration and up to five e-mail accounts. "We don't believe in add-ons. What you see is what you get, and with Parade, every single feature we offer (including access to all new feature additions, updates and improvements) is included with every one of our template designs," explains Micah."
