Sophie Hardach‘s form is another example of a post card idea implemented in a contact form. The input fields are a bit clearer than one would think, yet the “Submit”-button is a bit more difficult to find. In order to send the message, a stamp in the right upper corner needs to be dragged to the Stamp area of the form. In fact, the form is not only very original, but also accessible. Excellent work

Part of designing an effective website is focussing on being able to convert visitors into sales or new clients. We’ve compiled this list of tips to help you start turning those new visitors into happy customers.
Emphasize you offers!
Offer your customers discounts and special offers. Emphasize offers heavily on your website, newsletters, support emails and social media sites. At Fasthosts we are constantly running offers and discounts to customers. It helps us convert visitors into sales if they can see they are getting hosting for half price or the first month free on dedicated servers.
Promote your best assets
We provide competitor comparisons on our reseller packages to help potential customers see the value they are getting in comparison to our nearest competitors. It helps us convert visitors into sales as they can see for themselves exactly how much more they are getting for their money with us than our competitors.
Show how secure you are
Identity theft and internet fraud are a big issue with online shopping and it is important to make sure your site is as secure as it can be and complies with all of the rules and regulations. Once it is then showcase the fact that you are secure. People are much more careful and cautious with their online shopping and tend to stick to big, well-known brands. Make sure you provide visitors with all the information they need to feel safe and secure when buying from your site. It can be the difference between converting that sale and not.
Alternative payment options
Try and be as flexible as possible when offering payment options to potential customers. Why got to the effort of designing your great new site, doing all of your fantastic advertising and when the happy new customer comes to the final step and wants to buy your product you don’t have the payment option they want. Can you offer PayPal or Google Checkout? Payment by credit or debit card? Do you sell to US customers and not offer American Express as a card option?
Get on the phone and email
It is very difficult to create a site that is so comprehensive or has such a fantastic customer forum that can answer every question a potential customer will ask. If possible offer a sales line, even if you can only cover a small time frame. It is much more reassuring to new customers if they know a human being is actually working for this new company site that they’ve come across. Also ensure that you respond to email enquiries as quickly as possible. Make it very prominent on the website that you offer phone and email support. You will be amazed at how many more sales leads you will convert if you can answer customer’s questions.
Descriptive website navigation
If possible make your navigation bar as descriptive and specific as possible. If your navigation text reads “laptops” why not change it to “search our laptop range”.
What are your competitors up to?
Sometimes you can be so focused on what you are doing that you forgot to check what your competitors are up to. Are they running a new competition? Have they launched a new blog? Do they have any special discounts atm? Have they made a new announcement? These are all things you need to be checking for on a regular basis.

You can go through a lot of different stages when designing a Web app:
Storyboard - A flowchart in which each box represents a screen, and each connecting line represents a link or submit
Pencil sketch - the proverbial napkin, or if you must be more organized, a whiteboard
Wireframe - a crude graphical mockup, often constructed in Powerpoint by a non-designer with limited pencil-sketching skills
Graphical mockup - a photoshop picture of a page
HTML click-through Wireframe - a text-mode HTML mockup constructed so that you can see the relevant data and linked together so that you can click through the workflow from the storyboard
Text-mode prototype - actual software that does what you want, but without the design framing
Programmer's prototype - The programmer's first cut at the software, using the pre-existing design elements and CSS provided by the designer or the project

At the time of an architectural contest presentation, most of the architects, and especially the ones who do a lot of contests, know that the presentation plays a capital role. And 3D visualization is a key element. However, the quality of presented images will not be the same of all of them.
Mark down: a photorealist visualization including all the details, from where you can distinguish materials and one can make himself a clear idea of the environement integration offers an incomparable boost.
