Elizabeth Winthrop
Award winning children’s author, Elizabeth Winthrop, is a client we have been working since our beginning. Her website looked like it was done ten years ago, cause it was. She needed to enter the 21st century and turned to us for design and technical help.
Building a custom theme for Elizabeth was tons of fun! Her site needed to reflect the fun of her kids books and the seriousness of some of her adult focused work. What came out is a site that we are all proud of.

Albert Cummings
Blues guitarist, Albert Cummings, was in need of a new website. Over the years we kept patching his tired site and it was time to update. Always on the road, we needed to highlight his tours and since he is an independent artist, highlighting the store was key. He was also in need of a new logo, justin created an awesome design for shirts and a logo for the site.
We also customized the rest of Albert’s web presence including custom graphics on Facebook, Myspace, and Artistdata. A new mobile phone app is coming out soon as well, brought to you by the Brainspiral team!

Northern Berkshire Community Coalition
NBCC is a pillar in our community. We were excited when they came to us desiring a new look for their outdated web presence. As an active community agency they had a variety of needs. Starting with a new web design we set up an easy to use navigation and made sure that their site was accessible to those who use screen readers.
NBCC also needed a way for people from the community to communicate after their monthly forums and in case of an emergency. We set up an online forum where community members can login and continue these rich discussions.
NBCC also was in need of a new way to handle their email list. Not only did they want to manage it online but they wanted a design that was in line with their fresh website. Using a new integrated piece of software built for the wordpress framework we set up a state of the art web based mailing list solution.
