Every good web designer knows that things in the industry are constantly changing. New tools and methods are a constant and being aware of them is just one thing on a designer’s plate.
Webydo
Are you more of a designer than a programmer? You are far from alone. If you don’t have a lot of coding experience, Webydo is an excellent way to put together HTML-5 site without dealing with any of the code wrangling. This tool allows you to use a WYSIWYG editor to optimize your design for any device you wish.
FontStruct
FontStruct allows you to create the exact font you want and makes the process simple. You can use geometric shapes to build the font, get help from other designers on the platform and share your newly created fonts with others. If you haven’t found that perfect font, you can get in there and make it yourself.
Axure
This tool allows you to sketch designs and then watch them as they come to life. Axure is an interactive wireframing tool that makes mockups simple. You can create templates, save designs, annotate and more. There are also available placeholders so you can share and develop within a team.
Foundation
Formerly known as Ink, Foundation allows you to create emails with a little help. It is built on a responsive framework with built in HTML, so it works across all sorts of devices and clients. Foundation allows you to plug in a basic template code framework that makes beautiful and responsive emails that everyone has access to.
Typecast
When many websites look the same, it can lead to a feeling that the content is also all the same. Avoid that with your site by using Typecast. It helps you find the right tone and personality for your site using many legible typefaces that will get your customers attention. You can also see how fonts look on various devices, edit those fonts, test page loading speeds, and muck around with other factors to get just the right look.
Macaw
Another option for those without coding skills is Macaw. You simply draw a design onto the page and the software will take it and turn it into CSS and HTML. You can use global styles in various models, incorporate dynamic fonts, and more. Macaw will convert it into a dynamic layout with absolute, fixed and static positioning.
Pixlr
Pixlr is a tool that allows you to recreate the beautiful colors and designs from photos and images in your own web design. This is an entire suite of instruments that show you what is possible in design today. You can do image creation, photo editing, overlays and much more. This tool pushes you to the brink of modern web design and allows you to do things you might never have expected.
For all the those working on web design in Toronto, these tools should give you somewhere new to look for inspiration. Each is new and exciting, sure to bring great things to the table.

From the outset, our experience with Blue Flamingo has been very positive. We have been impressed and reassured by the calm approach to a multitude of queries related to our bespoke administration system and website, following the unexpected loss of our IT Adminstrator. Working with Blue Flamingo has provided a sense of security for us whilst enabling us to continue operating and providing postgraduate educational courses.

I am very grateful to the business that recommended Blue Flamingo to me. Like most people, I need to be very sure before I make a recommendation but I am confident passing the favour along to family and friends, people I care about whose businesses would benefit from their expertise. My website had some unique challenges but Tim Husband worked with me to find the right approach for successfully overhauling it. Whenever there have been glitches (inevitable on a 16 year old site), they have been responsive and capable. If I could, I would give more than 5 stars.
Mark Munday
Blue Flamingo helped us migrate our domain and email from one account to another very quickly and efficiently, would highly recommend.

Blue Flamingo did a great job building a web application to deliver our content to teachers and students. They were professional and prompt all the way from requirements to going live, and their support afterwards has been excellent. They were also instrumental in integrating our application with Clever and ClassLink for an even better user experience. I highly recommend Blue Flamingo Solutions!

I have known Blue Flamingo for many years now, and the assistance I have had across various SEO related projects has been vital.
Aaron Wayne
After doing A LOT of research and getting in touch with multiple web developers, I decided to go with Tim and his team primarily due to value and trust. I have been running my online business for several years now and in that time I have had a lot of bad experiences with developers. I knew that if I wanted to take my business to the next level, I needed a partner and not a just company to do what I ask. After various interactions with Tim, it just felt right. Now I have a beautifully designed website with the ability to scale my business and a partner to goes above and beyond expectations. I highly recommend Blue Flamingo.

I've been working with the Blue Flamingo team for several years and have always found them to be highly professional, responsive and creative.
Rafah Hanna
My experience with Blueflamingo has been a masterclass of how a business should operate and deliver to its clients. From the outset of developing the ideas, to structuring the work, to communications on an ongoing basis, it has been first class. The final product delivered has been highly effective and above expectations (which were already high).I would recommend Blueflamingo if you or your company want a professional organisation that practices insightful product development, with a first class attitude.
Lyceum Capital
I came to Blueflamingo with- what I thought was an impossible task- after exhausting a number of other companies; in the first meeting I was offered a range of three solutions and by the second meeting we had started the project. Throughout the build of the new system I was kept informed and up to date with progress, with communication right up to the time we tested and started to deploy the solution. I didn't know BlueFlamingo offered so much more than web design but I'm very glad I do now!Thanks again to the team and already looking forward to the next project.
