Pixton Wins Top Honors at 2008 Interactive Media Awards

Vancouver, Canada – November 6, 2008 –Pixton Comics Inc., a leading developer of innovative social media applications based in Vancouver, Canada, today announced that it has won Outstanding Achievement in Website Development by the Interactive Media Awards™ for Pixton.com. The honor recognizes that the website met and surpassed the standards of excellence that comprise the web’s most professional work. The site was honored specifically for excellence in Kids.

The judging consisted of various criteria, including design, usability, innovation in technical features, standards compliance and content. In order to win this award level, the site had to meet strict guidelines in each area — an achievement only a fraction of sites in the IMA competition earn each quarter.

Clive Goodinson, Founder of Pixton Comics Inc., said, "It's an honor to have our work recognized by the Interactive Media Awards. We feel strongly that Pixton is a world-class example of how the Internet can be used to showcase and develop creativity. This accolade is further proof of this fact."
