  • Connect.com.my Facelift

    Written by admin on April 18, 2008 – 2:16 pm

    After 3 years, we decided it was time for our web hosting site to get a new look.

    The old website has served us well. But instead of remaining in our comfort zone, we thought that it would help users if we streamlined the navigation.

    Little did we know what started out as a streamlining excercise ended up as a total revamp!

    Ideas were brainstormed, things were moved around and we played a bit with colors too. So this is the result…

  • Your Email Sending Problem Demystified – TM Net is Blocking Port 25

    Written by admin on March 22, 2008 – 12:42 am
    Posted in Announcements

    Recently many of our web and email hosting clients have complained that they were unable to send emails although they were receiving fine.

    This occured when clients were:

    • connecting to the Internet using TM net / Streamyx
    • using MS Outlook or Outlook Express as their email client

    The reason for this is that since December 2007, TM has been starting to block Port 25 which is the default SMTP port.

    Therefore to fix the problem, all you need to do is change your settings slightly in your MS Outlook or Outlook Express. Please refer to our announcement here.

  • The FOUR Blessed Looks for a Web Designer

    By the 9th day of Chinese New Year most Chinese businesses would have reopened for business.

    This year my CNY holidays were spent in KL. For a change, the KL scene was serene (there was no haze!) and traffic was wonderfully quiet.

    Not even a single sound of a fire cracker did I hear!

    Mandarin Ang Pow

    CNY is more than just Ang Pows and Mandarins.

    It was a good time of reflection for me. An email from a friend got me thinking….

    THE FOUR BLESSED LOOKS
    Look back and thank God.
    Look forward and trust God.
    Look around and serve God.
    Look within and find God!”

  • WorldTeach – Our First Web Design Project

    Having been around for 6 years now, you might ask, what is our first web design project?

    It was a relatively small and simple website but what a fantastic experience it was! It was none other than www.worldteach.com.my.

    WorldTeach is a Christian ministry providing seminars, books and life-changing teaching in the Christian walk. Working with Mr Eric Tan, National Director of the WorldTeach ministry in Malaysia, we came up with a website which enabled the ministry to showcase their books and seminar series.

    Thank you Eric for this wonderful opportunity to kick off our business!

    Last year during 2006, WorldTeach decided to revamp to a new look which was designed by one of their team members Skye Tan. We helped them to develop a PHP framework for coding the website and with a little bit of training, Skye was able to complete most of the website by herself!

    Great work Skye!

    WorldTeach       World Teach
    Then …                                           Now

    Our first client continues to be our valued client today. We are grateful for the many years of association with WorldTeach Malaysia, and hopefully the many more that are yet to come!

  • Our New Portfolio Gallery

    For ease of updating, we have decided to migrate our Portfolio Gallery to this Wordpress-based system.

    Our old Web Design Portfolio can still be viewed at http://www.netallianz.com/portfolio.php or by clicking Portfolio Archive in the left menu.

    For those of you who are unfamiliar with Wordpress, it is actually a Blog system that can easily double up as a powerful Content Management System. If you are in the market for a new website or CMS, we would love to show you what Wordpress is capable of :)
