Reviews
The creation of this site has been, and will continue to be a great pleasure.
From the beginning, with a truly intuitive design in perfect harmony with our
aspirations, from a very sparse brief, Vectorvend had an immediate grasp of what is required in terms of great web design and functional infrastructure. His 'can do' approach is very refreshing, compared to several other web designers I have dealt with.
I have no hesitation in recommending Vectorvend to any business looking for excellent web design, or vector graphics. In my opinion they are the best in the UK, if not further afield.
Excellent vector graphics service with high quality drawings - even from low resolution original source image - this is a service I have used again and again, and will continue to do so.
vectorvend comments:
Thank you Digitalred! Review is based on the logo conversion service that I offer as part of website design if a client needs a fresh website or simply a logo updated
