Spotlight: X-treme Silkscreen & Design

One of our newest clients is X-treme Silkscreen & Design. They offer competitive pricing, quality designs, and quick turn-around time.

We first met the folks at X-treme at one of our son’s first swim meets, as they design and create all apparel for the North Shore Swim Club. The quality is terrific and we love the designs. They came to us after having problems with their old website, and we quickly created a new site so that they could promote the t-shirts and hoodies for the January 2009 Regionals.

The X-treme website is a WordPress blog that uses Thesis for the underlying framework. The rotating screenshots of different samples use the Kimili Flash Embed plug-in, while the Portfolio and Online Ordering pictures use the NextGEN Gallery plug-in.

If you need any kind of apparel for your business, contact the folks at X-treme Silkscreen & Design at +1 781.598.1626. They can use existing artwork or create a custom design for you.
