Tonio Loewald was the webmaster of realgurus.com, the original support site and web forum for REALbasic, which was deprecated in favor of REAL Software's official forums when they finally became available. As such we have extensive experience developing cross-platform software using the REALbasic programming language and assisting people with REALbasic projects.
We have developed solutions for video compression, video processing, image manipulation, workflow support, and game development (online, offline, 2D, 3D).
The original realgurus forums can still be accessed here, REAL software's forums are available here, and Loewald.com's forums are here.
We can provide web development, digital video, 3D modeling and animation, usability consulting, GUI design, and 2D art and design services.
We develop on Mac OS X and Windows XP and Vista. We can develop for Mac OS 8.6 / Windows 98 and onwards, and many flavors of Linux.
We avoid proprietary technologies — especially closed file formats — where possible.
We develop for all web browsers, not just Internet Explorer.
We understand localization issues, that not every country has five-digit zip codes, and how to convert between metric and imperial measures.
We know the difference between NTSC, PAL, and SECAM.
We can quote by project milestone or charge by the hour.
Our hourly rates vary between $75 and $200 per hour, but we're fast, so we're very good value for money.
We design our solutions to be easy to use and easy to maintain. We don't build solutions only we can maintain; we want you to come back because you want to, not because you have to.
