From cerdazein.com, provided by Uptown Creative Group, which describes itself as follows:

Finally, a reliable design company.

We're not out to create the next award-winning piece of modern abstract art, our goal is to increase your sales with clean, functional designs that work!

With a team of formally-trained marketing professionals, graphic designers, and web programmers, our goal is to provide you with creative solutions that propel you towards your strategic vision and branding goals.
High-quality work, to be sure, characterized mostly by complete ignorance of, or disregard for, current Web marketing practices, such as no permanent links search engines can index ("cerdazein.com" never changes regardless of what page you're reading on the site), or old-school frames. Not to mention quasi-run-on sentences that could be easily fixed with an elementary grasp of punctuation.

Also:

Our award-winning design team specializes in custom vector illustration, strategic logo design and branding, magazine and billboard designs, and other high-quality promotional materials.

Please contact us if you would like to view additional samples.
No link to the supposed "awards," or to a form or email page to "contact us." Note to Uptown Creative Group: your site is your portfolio. It can be as big as you want it to. Why not put your additional samples up for the world to see? It doesn't cost anything. But of course you know that, since you're all "formally trained." And I have to hand it to you for being "award-winning" yet not seeking "create the next award-winning piece of modern abstract art."

At least they're consistent.
