Planet Telex Futurama

We've rebranded! Our star designer Bobby Benton completely reworked our corporate branding from the ground up and designed this beautiful and distinctive website. Built on the Orchard CMS platform, this site features some of the latest HTML5 and CSS3 techniques. In addition to putting great care and attention into the content included on this site, we have endeavored to make it fun and engaging to use. Subtle effects like the logo's tracer light, the background's slowly shifting colors, and dynamic text gradients lend a feeling of substance to the design.

But perhaps the star of our new website design is our new PT Coverflow jQuery UI widget. Developed primarily by Dan Hansen after all the existing web based coverflows we found failed to fulfill our needs, PT Coverflow features advanced perspective transformations implemented using the canvas element of HTML5, a ton of features, and even a GUI editor for playing with the many options. Check out the demos, or see the coverflow in action on our homepage or any portfolio page. PT Coverflow is free, open source and available on GitHub.

At Planet Telex, we are all very excited about our new image and our new web platform. It fits who we are better than before and the new web platform will prevent the site from getting stale, since it makes updating and blogging so easy. Combined with all the time and attention we put into our infrastructure last quarter, Planet Telex has done more than rebooted, we've upgraded our OS.
