pretty much just plain information could be found. \u00a0I thought it would be nice to liven up the site to include pictures of the area, since it is really beautiful. \u00a0I had my mother-in-law shoot some pictures on a bright, sunny day and then I took them and color-corrected them slightly to show rich, warm colors to match with the warmth of the orange in the logo.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to helping them design their website and logo, I also helped the company look into their expenses for the website. \u00a0Their previous website was hosted with a certain company. \u00a0Their URL had expired, and they were now faced with a $35 yearly fee to renew. \u00a0Since their URL is really only used by people in their community and not published far and wide, we adjusted their URL a bit and purchased it with a different registration company for a grand total of $71 for 5 years, cutting down their costs considerably. \u00a0The Board was very happy not only with the design, but also the cost-saving measures!<\/p>\n<p>Without further adieu, the <a href=\"http:\/\/persimmon-hill-ojai.org\/\">Persimmon Hill Homeowners Association website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My father-in-law Warren was so impressed with the Greene Ink Press website that I built for Kendra that he spoke with the Board of his homeowners&#8217;
