"Since our very first product we have been MacOS developers, so we are overjoyed that Adobe's Flash Player now allows us to fully support Mac users running under 64bit mode,"

said Media Lab President Tom Summerall.  "For maximum convenience we made the single installer smart enough to install SiteGrinder for 64bit, for 32bit, or for both, depending on the user's MacOS and Photoshop installations."

Media Lab is constantly expanding this list.

"Media Lab is continually adding new features and functionality to its SiteGrinder 3 Platform to make the Facebook and social media experience more productive," commented Tom Summerall, President of Media Lab, Inc.

Convert PSD Designs to HTML Websites...


If you know Photoshop then you already know enough to start creating web pages for yourself and your clients. With SiteGrinder there is no longer a requirement to slice up your web design and send it off to a developer to convert your design from Photoshop to HTML / XHTML and CSS. SiteGrinder does all of that tedious work for you. Your Photoshop web design is output just the way you envisioned it – resulting in a full functioning website.


SiteGrinder's intelligent engine can convert simple type layers into search-engine friendly menus that are dynamic and visually appealing. Image layers can also become buttons and menus. SiteGrinder's smart handling of slicing and image compression also gives you the designer complete flexibility in customizing how SiteGrinder will optimize each layer. SiteGrinder uses Photoshop's "layer comps" feature to organize layers into beautiful web pages.

Once the layers have been saved into layer comps SiteGrinder will output a website that looks just like your Photoshop web design! As a bonus, the standards-compliant websites created by SiteGrinder 3 can be put through XHTML validators and pass without error. This means that all web pages converted from Photoshop to HTML with SiteGrinder can be modified by any HTML/XHTML/CSS web design program, such as Adobe Dreamweaver.
