Welcome to Drew Klausner’s blog for news about www.pixlfixl.com. For people that don’t know, pixlfixl is an online digital photo restoration service that I launched in December, ‘08. I’m hoping to use this blog to keep people up to date on what’s happening at pixlfixl as well as blog about the photo restoration process of some of the photos that come my way.  

I guess a good place to start would be to thank the four people that helped create the web-site. Laura Killmaster was the web designer (www.laurakillmaster.com). I think she did a wonderful job and was able to make a site that presents the image I wanted for the web. Laura was very patient with me. When we began the process I didn’t know the difference between a Flash site and an .html one. I’ve come a long way, now I even know a little about such things as .php and bandwidth.  Two other essential people who pitched in were John Archdeacon and Chris Johannsen. They did the coding work that makes the site usable for; creating quotes, ordering, previewing and keeping a mass of information organized. This “under the hood” work thankfully keeps me from having to use one of those large white dry-erase boards to hand track every order.

Special thanks also to freelance writer Bija Gutoff (www.gutoff.com) who wrote the snappy copy on the site. It’s amazing how important (and difficult) writing clear language can be. 

Thanks Laura, John, Chris and Bija for all your hard work!
