Miura's Social Media Campaign turns photofoundation into fastest growing image bank in the world
Its unofficial, but we have to say that photofoundation must be the fastest growing image bank in the world today.
With Miura's two awards under our belt for photofoundation and another canny social media campaign masterminded at Miura HQ the generation of 188,733 images in 4 weeks, at a staggering 47,183 images a week and 6740 images a day we are pretty sure no other image bank can match this.
Our next phase is education. With many submissions arriving as anonymous donations we have to decline those images of people were they are clearly recognisable due to copyright law. If you are one of the many, many kind image donators, please register via the site or the 'Do Some Good' mobile app created by Orange. You will not only get to see all your images in one place but you can show them off to your friends too.
Please keep submitting quality images we love to seem them come in, they truly make a difference to our charity partners.

Miura launches new website for Jenson8
New exciting work has just been launched for Jenson8. We always enjoy working with clients motivated by creativity and innovation.
Our brief was to redesign the Jenson8 website. As a business transformation and strategic
networking company who believes in living their promise to ask the difficult questions in order to provide extraordinary solutions, the website needed to reflect their promise and go beyond the usual expected design route. We created the entire site on one giant canvas where you glide from area to area seamlessly.
For the development of this project we created several unique tailor-made features. Visually,
the one page website was designed on a grid format with five layers to the site; 4 layers of stars to create a beautiful 3D effect and one layer for text.
From a technical angle, we have created a very fast and efficient site by using css sprite which allowed us to style the site using smaller sized files, resulting in faster uploading speeds. A one-page site is a faster site and more efficient site as once the site is opened all the content is fully loaded in one go.
Miura is proud to work with this visionary international strategic consultancy and look forward
to creating more exciting work withJenson8.
