Flux
May 6 2009

BLOND  Flux 2 is now public beta available to all.

The Escapers are quick responsive developers who are working with their users.

This project now has a real feel good factor each release building on a solid platform giving real confidence in Flux and The Escapers delivering.

Flux 2 is powerful web design software that pulls no punches.

Still at beta price of £40 single user licence anybody getting onboard now has a bargain I would guess this price has to go up in the future.

HMURCHISON  Price will go up? Let me add a little reality here.

Coda will be 2.0 this year. They already have many users. Espresso just went out to 80 thousand purchasers of MacHeist.

I've got iWeb, RapidWeaver, Espresso and Sandvox on my computer alone so web dev options aren't a problem.

Flux 2 may be a great app but don't expect those of us who have a handful of web dev programs to lay down at Flux's feet. We've got options.

I'm hoping that Flux can bring something new to the table but they're going to need to get out there. They should be talking to MUPROMO about getting Flux 2 in the next bundle. You gotta get marketshare before you can even think about raising prices.

HMURCHISON  Ok I put my money where my mouth is. That "other" site that does daily specials has Flux 2 on sale one day only. Bought two copies and will be tossing it in the mix with Sandvox and Espresso to see which one I prefer to use.

I'm eager to see what this app can do. I have Stuf from the escapers and now I have Flux. I'll do a full review once I know enough about the app so avoid sounding like a blithering idiot.

Create
Apr 27 2007
*****

BLOND  Running a small business I do not have the luxury of being able to outsource my web, brochure, manual, leaflet design to someone else. I have to keep a careful eye on cost.

Some years ago I was lucky enough to find Stone Designs Create. I first rebuilt my company web-site then moved on to leaflets to promote my products. After this brochures and technical manuals. Today I am designing a logo. Create is also great for doing homework.

Being able to do all this in one program means only one user interface to learn.

Free upgrades, the important part here is upgrades, not only is Create ready to use the latest version of OSX when it is released. It is kept up to date and new features/requests are added. Take the latest version 13 updated to use CSS and output XHTML 1.0 to the web. All I had to do was open the site I had originally built in Create and output the web files as XHTML 1.0. Andrew Stones attention to detail made it simple for me to do and Creates new features keep my site up to date with the latest web thinking. Andrew is totally in tune with his client base, how they are using his software and what they wish to achieve through a thriving forum where you can quickly get answers and share ideas. Couple this with a quality manual included which is continually kept up to date. Free would be worthless without the above but in this case free is a bonus. This total product support allows me to concentrate on what I need to do to make my business work.

Create has allowed me to communicate with my customers far more eloquently improving my business. Yes I can honestly say Create is part of my business success, thank you Andrew.
