First, congratulations on a couple great websites! I am quite pleased with how they have turned out. I appreciate all your hard work on this project...especially as I inserted a new voice into the mix.
This website is a very meaningful part of our communication strategy, so I can't stress how important it has been to produce a world-class site. We have achieved this I believe, and you and your team should be quite proud.
Best regards, Steven Vannelli Managing Director GaveKal Capital, LLC

“this year’s report is fantastic…it’s clean and sophisticated, and well-designed.”more
I think this year's report is fantastic! It is clean and sophisticated, and well-designed. Doing work for Children's is hard: you often have to skirt the line between "child-like" and "childish" and with Surgery and Research, it can be easy to go too stodgy.
I think you did a great job of implementing the necessary sophisticated components while still creating a Children's branded piece (I particularly like the clipped floor mosaic at the top to designate sections.) And it is easy to navigate and read, despite the heavy copy. I am also really, really impressed with the photography work! I've seen all of these photos before—and I know they are hard to work with—but you did a really fantastic job making them look meaningful and subdued through clever cropping and placement.
They can tend to look so busy with a million pieces of equipment and things poking out of people's heads and bizarre colors; but they actually seem to work okay in this publication! I know this report must be so crazy to put together (10 katrillion copy edits—I still misspell ophthalmology all the time—and coordinating with 15 people, but it looks great and I know you must be absolutely thrilled to have it done!
Thanks again!

“very impressed with your efforts…you have earned our continued business” more
Jim and I are very impressed with your efforts on our Annual Report. You have managed the process admirably and have delivered a nice looking report – thanks. We really like the PDF version and will be doing that here next year for sure. You have earned our continued business.
I’d like you to take a look at our “image” and see if we can improve it. While we don’t really need to, and maybe shouldn’t, change our presentation and announcement formats, I’d like to perhaps, “mature” them.
Thanks again Jonathan, good job.

“pleasant and professional…can-do-that…award-winning work on budget” more
Jonathan, the past five years of working with you have been the most pleasant as well as professional during my 20 year tenure as Vice President – Investor Relations at Crown and Solitario Resources. You have taken the job of producing two annual reports simultaneously and turned it into a pleasure rather than a burden.
Your ability to serve as designer, webmaster and "Jonathan can do that" have been invaluable services you have provided over the years. I appreciate your immediate attention to projects, however large or small, as well as your ability to produce award-winning, quality work on budget, which is critical to smaller companies such as Crown and Solitario.
I look forward to our continued association and I would be happy to serve as a reference for anyone needing the services of Pite Creative.
Looking forward to producing two more reports for 2001, I remain
