Major Web Site Release: CosmeticSurgery.org

That’s right, we have completed the first phase of working with the staff and Communications Committee of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery to develop a new look and feel for their web site: CosmeticSurgery.org.

AACS members and regular visitors to CosmeticSurgery.org will immediately notice that the site is now Flash. The established style has been preserved and enhanced with the smooth animations of this more advanced style of presentation.

It is our pleasure to present this as our latest site release. Special thanks go to Charlie Baase, who guided the project’s content, AACS President Dr. Ed Lack and Communications Committee Chair Dr. Robert Burke, who gave the project momentum, former Dog Star Art Director Julie Teasley who nailed the design on her first attempt, Dog Star web designers Charlie Patric and Akiko Kakuta for all the magic they always do and Mark Collins, without whom we could not make this site function. If you are so inclined, give these folks some praise for their work on this major project.

More is to come as we develop the site with AACS. For all of you who are watching, the benchmark is here. I hope this inspires some cosmetic surgeons to reconsider how they are presenting their practices on the web. Please email me here if there is anything Dog Star Media can do to help.
