Roundup: This month in pictures 12/18
The year is winding down and it's been a while since we've popped in here to give an update on what we've been working on. Client projects and the release of UI.X Pro and Topics has kept us occupied but we're incredibly grateful to see what we've worked on being pushed live.
ResetEra
It was an absolute blast working with the team behind ResetEra for their new redesign. This project touched on a lot of our strengths; consulting, strategy, illustration, design, and development. From exploring their unique brand motif to the smooth parallax animations we incorporated throughout the community, ResetEra has become one of our best and favorite projects we've worked on.

MotorForum
We were lucky enough to have a past client reach out to us for a new project and we're very excited to see it pushed live! MotorForum is a community of motorcyclists based primarily in the Netherlands and Belgium. The client wanted the new theme to be edgy and modern with subtle nods to the community's subject of motorbikes. With the creative freedom, we created a unique navigation and footer style and applied the bike tread pattern to the category strips for a uniquely branded forum design.

Pedelecs
We were approached by Pedelecs to help them restructure and redesign their community and blog. Providing both articles and a community to compare and share advice on electric bicycles, it was the perfect time to utilize UI.X Pro and Xpress. We created an approachable theme with a palette of flat, vibrant colors, an intuitive top and side navigation, and a clean look.

NeoGAF
We were very grateful to have one of the leading video game communities approach us for a redesign. With full creative freedom, we were excited to try a new effect that both subtly moves as you scroll as well as "popping" out of elements to make it more dynamic. An unique navigation style also created a challenge for our development team but the end result was well worth the hard work!

AnandTech
AnandTech has been one of the top communities for tech enthusiasts since 1997. Being such a staple in the forum world, it was imperative that we deliver a fresh, modern theme that helped elevate the AnandTech community but still maintain current branding motifs. We took concepts from the main site such as the angled lines and pop-out heading styles to keep cohesion with the UI.X Pro update.

Everything Else...
We’ve also been working on several projects that we can’t speak about in detail yet but can post some sneak peeks :)
We have a lot to share on a monthly basis so make sure to follow our Facebook page and keep an eye out on XenForo threads. Until the next recap!
