Some Basic Terms Used

We can create Web sites using a wide range of materials. Artwork and graphic images are a critical component of the interactive Web environment.

FORM
A form is a mechanism for initiating dialogue with a visitor. They allow you to collect information about visitors to your Web site and they let visitors request information. You are allowed to purchase the merchandise at the website, because this is the ultimate goal of electronic commerce to engage potential customers into a purchase decision. By making the online experience informative, relevant and easy to use, commerce is possible. Keeping order processing simple and convenient is important.

SHOPPING CARTS
The order processing system allows a customer to select multiple items while browsing the product offering pages of your Web site. The items are "held" in the shopping cart until the visitor is ready to "check out." When the visitor is ready to submit the order, all items are listed, automatically totaled, and then sent in the form of a secure encrypted e-mail to the Web site owner.

SSL AND PGP
SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, and is the method used for the securing of credit card information from the customer to a secured server.
PGP is the method used for sending a customer's encrypted credit card information from a secure server to your e-mail account. It allows you to store and retrieve sensitive information in an encrypted manner. It is military grade encryption which is publicly available to U.S. residents through most of the common e-mail programs, or from Network Associates. There is a good chance that you already have PGP capabilities on your computer. If you do not already have PGP installed on your computer, you will need to do so prior to establishing an ecommerce page within the site. That may sound complicated, but we will help you through it.

WHAT ARE IMAGES?
Images are how a Web site comes to life. Images can be anything from a corporate logo, pictures of products, graphs, charts or organizational diagrams. We can scan and compress any type of image or if such images can be provided to us in disk format or electronically, we can process and integrate them into the Web site.
If you are sending us hard copy images, please try to avoid textured papers and overly large images (posters, etc.). We will adjust the images to achieve the fastest and highest integrity of reproduction.
