Ever seen a logo that's been stretched too much, or is invisible because it's on the wrong background? All your work on consistent branding can be destroyed in an instant.

That's where branding guidelines enter the picture. A document which describes exactly which positioning, dimensions and colours to use for your logo, so it looks right wherever it ends up - your website, your slide deck, a conference banner, or someone else's newsletter.

If you've had a rebrand (or you're planning one), guidelines are what stop it unravelling the first time someone outside your team gets their hands on your logo.

We build brand identity and guidelines together, so consistency isn't left to chance.

Portfolio: Peer Research Academy.

As well as a great-looking website, this project required particular care over how they represent the people they're for.

The Peer Research Academy, commissioned by the Wellcome Trust and delivered by the University of Nottingham, connects researchers with lived experience of mental health issues, substance use, and neurodiversity, and supports the work they do through funding, training, and events.

Working with the Institute of Mental Health again, we knew that the imagery and tone required sensitive handling. We gave the team three branding concepts to choose from, then built a vibrant, easy-to-use website around it, using icons to break up the text and keep things accessible. The stories section lets authors submit multiple pieces, and news and events are built right into the site.

"We would highly recommend Pixelshrink to other researchers who wish to make accessible and friendly websites for engaging with a range of different audiences... The team was sensitive to the needs of our project, flexible and patient with our responses.

Will your research poster stand out, or blend in?

Conference poster sessions are a wall of near-identical templates, with dense text, clashing colours, and font sizes nobody can read from four feet away. It doesn't have to be that way.

We design research posters that combine striking visuals with clear, concise messaging, so your findings get noticed and understood, not just glanced at and forgotten.

That means:
- Layouts that highlight your key insights,
- Readable type sizes and a colour palette that works
- Infographics and charts that make complex data easy to digest
- High-resolution, print-ready files in A3, A2, A1, or A0

Whether it's a scientific, medical, or corporate poster, we'll make sure it holds its own next to the others in the room.

Is your website built for every visitor?

More than two million people in the UK live with sight loss, and plenty more rely on other assistive technology just to navigate a webpage. If your site isn't built with that in mind, you could be losing a huge part of your audience before they've even read a word.

Our website accessibility audits go beyond a compliance checklist. We look at things like heading structure, alt text, colour contrast, and keyboard navigation, then help you act on the findings.

For research projects especially, accessibility isn't a nice-to-have. It's what ensures your work reaches policymakers, participants, and the public, not just the people who already know how to find it.

We can also write your accessibility statement for you, if you need one.

We could tell you we're good at what we do, but we'd rather let our clients do the talking.

"Pixelshrink has done some excellent websites for us including the DISTINCT and INDUCT projects that have required engaging and easy-to-use pages that are accessible, versatile, and relevant for all our European research partners. We can recommend Pixelshrink highly and plan to use them for further websites and research projects in the future."

That's the kind of feedback that keeps us doing this. Building websites that work across borders, across partners, and across audiences, without losing the substance of the research itself.

If your project needs a website (or a partner) that can keep up with international collaboration, we'd love to chat.

One digital marketing channel rarely does the job alone.

Content creation, SEO, paid ads, social media management, email marketing... it's tempting to think you need to be doing all of them, all the time. But you don't.

The trick is knowing which combination fits where your project is right now:

- Just launched? Content and SEO start building your visibility for the long haul.

- Got a deadline or a specific audience to reach? Paid ads can get you seen fast.

- Building a community around your research? Social media and email keep people coming back.

We provide a full range of digital marketing services, and we'll help you work out which ones are worth your time and budget, rather than trying to sell you all of them at once.

Goodbye garbled graphs and tedious tables.

Our approach unlocks complex data using interactive tools like quizzes, helping visitors reach a deeper understanding and a fresh perspective.

It's visual storytelling that looks good, enhances understanding, sparks engagement, and helps drive informed decision-making for everyone who lands on your site.

If your data deserves to be seen and understood, not just published, this is where we come in.

Showcase: Cultivate Innovation

Not every website needs building from scratch. Some just need someone to look after what's already there, and help it grow.

Cultivate Innovation, a Nottingham-based consultancy supporting low-carbon energy solutions, already had a website they were happy with. What they needed was ongoing support with website maintenance and regular content in the form of blog posts and case studies.

We migrated the site onto WordPress for extra flexibility, then built a custom care package around it. As well as keeping everything running smoothly, we now provide content on a regular basis, and manage the site's sustainability certification as a partner of the Eco Friendly Web Alliance.

"Pixelshrink's team have done a great job with our website... It is great to have the things I used to worry about looked after by someone else."

Sometimes the best website work is the kind nobody notices, because it just keeps working.

Innovate UK is changing how it supports businesses.

The agency is moving from spreading funding thinly across thousands of applicants to backing a much smaller, more selective group. This means a drop from around 10,000 businesses a year to roughly 3,000.

If you're prepping a funding application (or planning to), ""good enough"" pitches aren't going to cut it anymore. Innovate UK will expect a sharper, better-evidenced case for why you deserve backing.

This is just one of three major shifts we've broken down in our latest blog, and you can read the full article here: pixelshrink.com/blog/innovate-uk-big-shift-changes-funding-applications/

🌐 It's World Wide Web Day!

Every 1st August, we celebrate the thing that makes our entire job possible, the World Wide Web itself.

We've been building websites since 2014, born out of a desire to be the change we wanted to see in marketing. Out with stale websites and bland campaigns and in with world-class sites for research projects, university spin-outs, and consultancies who want to reach the people who matter.

A great website is still the foundation everything else gets built on - your branding, your marketing, your research actually reaching the world beyond the journal.

Today, we're raising a glass to the web, and to every research website we've had the privilege of building along the way.
