The SabreMark/Dream Images design which won is for a Van Nuys, CA heating and air conditioning firm, Active Air and can be viewed at www.activeac.com. This site is unusual in that both a marketing firm and a web design firm teamed up to create the site as a working commerce site, rather than just a static web page", said SabreMark, Inc., president Jonathan Todd. We used unusual design techniques to "take over" the user's entire window on startup and crafted the marketing twists including music, our unique appointment setter and our Cinematic Introduction which lends credibility to the client's site and business. Instead of pretty web pages, we have a fast loading, emotionally appealing site with a bottom line sales mechanism to close sales for our client right on the web." SabreMark, Inc. (www.sabremark.net) creates the marketing edge and Dream Images (www.dreamimages.net) creates the actual design elements.

Excerpted from the 42nd Street Awards Site: Awards presented by 42nd Street are intended to recognize and encourage excellence in website design, Awards must be earned by displaying excellence in design, thoughtfulness and content. Ingenuity is a big plus.
The most important aspects of any site design are clean code, good choice of colors, ease of navigation, correct spelling and/or grammar, and continuity of content. Hard work is displayed on countless websites, but it is only those which display that "something extra" that will earn the highest awards from 42nd Street. Site design is important, but it is no more important than the content of that site or the message the webmaster of that site is attempting to convey.
To this end, only those showing the highest efforts in their category will be recognized by 42nd Street with an award.

SabreMark, Inc., has their site at www.sabremark.net and Dream Images site is accessible through the web design area on SabreMarks site. For further information contact Alice Smith, New Media Director at 818.865.9993 or write to asmith@sabremark.net.
