Dear Scott,

It is almost a decade ago that I started my chess business. I knew very little about my computer and even less about WebPages. With the help of a talented friend, he designed, implemented and maintained a website for me. He received numerous awards for his work which resulted in my business skyrocketing to success. The result of his work culminated in my being honoured by the Robb Report in their annual “Best of the Best” issue and the only chess company every to do so. Recently his focus has changed and he asked me to seek someone “able to bring you further” in a presence on the Internet.

You came highly recommended. The website you designed for me is simply OUTSTANDING! There is an enormous number of chess websites, but none has the impact of your design. I must tell you I shared the design layout with some of my top clients. Keep in mind this business they spend between $2,000 to over $1 million dollars for chess sets! From London to San Francisco, From Hong Kong to Moscow, all agreed, “incredible work and design.”

You have assisted me with professional advice and a huge necessary amount of patience, above and beyond. I am well well pleased and I thank you and highly recommend anyone contemplating taking a step way above…to contact you. You are the BEST of the BEST.

Kindest regards,

I want to express my gratitude to Scott Dell’Arciprete, the man behind SpiderWeb Design Studio. Scott has created a masterful web site, DVD, and packaging for our independent film; Johnny Slade's Greatest Hits. The web site has been our “calling card”, and is indeed often, the first exposure prospective buyers/festivals have to our film. I don't have to tell you how important first impressions are. People have said, “love your site… I must see this film.” every time!

After years on the Sopranos, Law And Order, and Guiding Light as an actor, I learned the importance of “branding” to capture and convey the iconic imagery essential for success. Scott more than captured the feel and vibes of Johnny Slade. He created an identity that put us on the map instantly.

We plan on making more films and SpiderWeb thankfully will be doing our web and print work.

I highly, unabashedly recommend Scott and his company to anyone who may need such services; the work speaks for itself.

As an ebay hobbyist, I along with members of my family decided to open a consignment shop on ebay. We had an idea that there was a market for such an operation, where we can list items for clients who either did not know how to, or just didn’t have the time to.

Scott came to me highly recommended by my employer at MDR Construction. He met with us and listened to our ideas. We wanted a web site for advertising our new company, GottaGO Consignments. We also needed a logo that made people think of ebay. I have to tell you, when we saw the logo and web site, it was more than we ever expected we were blown away with Scott’s talent and creativity.

He also designed our auction template with the same look and feel of our web site, and taught us how to change our images and descriptions as well as our business cards and letterheads.

It’s been almost 3 years since we started our company and our working relationship with Scott. To be honest, without Scott’s services I don’t think our company would have been the success story it has been.

I’ve had web sites designed by “so called designers”, one of whom after he built it, I never was able to reach him again. I knew what look and feel I wanted to see in my day spa web site, but nobody was able to convey my thoughts into images that’s until Scott Dell’Arciprete walked through my door in 2002.

From the start of our conversation I really felt that Scott understood my vision. He is an excellent listener and is very patient as well as a very talented artist.

Soon after our meeting, Scott showed me our new web site and it was exactly what I had in mind. Throughout the years, Scott has kept re-designing and maintaining our Aesthetics, etc. web site and each time he just continues to impress the staff and me.

I’ve had so many new clients over the years because of our web site. They know what services I offer and what sets my day spa apart from others even before they walk through my door. I often get told “what a beautiful web site, who designed it?” I smile and tell them Scott at SpiderWeb Design, my most valuable employee.

Dear Scott,

Many heartfelt thanks for the beautiful web site that you have designed for our spa, 1 on 1 Self Indulgence. I could never have imagined our spa having such a beautiful site. It displays all the elements that we desired our visitors to see, as well as the ease to navigate and search for whatever they are interested in.

You have been such a pleasure to work with and are a true listener to what we wanted to see for our new website. The colors, the flash, personal touches and visuals you used truly express who we are and what we would like our visitors to envision about our spa…luxurious, indulging, and unique.

Your creativity, kindness, attention to detail and patience have really made this moment of change in website designs for us an easy and enjoyable event.

A professional website is exactly what we needed to attract clients and first class products. We have had tremendous amount of feedback in the first week since the site has been up and the words that keep coming up are “Awesome!”, “Beautiful!”, and “It’s so you!”.

We are forever grateful, Scott, for the opportunity that you have given to 1 on 1 Self Indulgence and moving our company ahead and creating a professional and beautiful impression for all those who chance upon www.1on1si.com

Best Regards,

Cindy McCullough
Owner of 1 on 1 Self Indulgence, Inc.

We had a few designers drawing up logos for us and Scott was the only designer to show initiative and creativity from the first step of the process, and perseverance through all the design changes we asked for until we got a finished product that all of our members are in love with!

Scott’s amazing talent brought our vision to life and now is the public face of our organization, which we are very proud of.

Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and passion! If it wasn't for you we would probably be using stick figures one of the kids drew. . lol!

We cannot recommend Scott enough. If you want a designer to listen to you, really listen, and to follow through with precision and kindness he is your man!

Scott at SpiderWeb Design created the logo for our mom’s meetup group Mommies Making Memories. Having our logo designed by Scott was a wonderful all around experience. I was afraid that having someone create a logo for us would be a long, stressful, and costly experience.

Our experience with Scott was none of those things. He always responded promptly to our requests, was always pleasant to work with, and took as much time to develop the design as needed to make sure we were 100% satisfied with the finished product! He treated us like we were just as important to him as clients being a small mom’s group as if we had been a huge corporation.

Scott goes above and beyond what anyone could expect from him and we are extremely pleased with all the hard work he has done for us. We have and will highly recommend his work to others who need website and/or logo design. Thanks Scott! WE LOVE OUR LOGO!

As a client of SpiderWeb Design, I am very pleased with the level of service which I received via email and phone. Being in the modeling industry it was recommended that I have my own personal website for a portfolio and as a method of contact. I am not too familiar with the process of web design so naturally along the way I came across many questions which were all answered and made clear promptly. It was as simple enough as emailing the info which I wanted the site display and within an hour either new information was up or changes were made

The results of the site are amazing. Not only was each aspect of the site discussed with me, allowing me to choose each particular part, but it was also enhanced upon. Going above and beyond my expectations. The site which was created for me is easy to use, attracting to the eye, and expresses me and how my portfolio should look. Scott did a fantastic job not only on the site itself but in working with me as a client.

I loved that you kept me in the loop on everything and asked my input the whole way through you really made me feel like I was in control, even though you did all the work!! I am so happy with the finished product, I can't believe it only took a matter of days! You are great!! Thanks again!!

To Whom It May Concern:
As Scott Dell’Arciprete’s instructor for Drawing I and Illustration, I’ve had the opportunity to observe his growth as an artist, his unwavering commitment to a career in the graphic arts, and the personal qualities that have distinguished him from the average student. Consequently, I am able to recommend him—without reservation—for employment.

No doubt, Scott’s abilities as an artist are evident in his portfolio. His work is polished, professional, and highly marketable. He is able to work quickly, take direction well, and skillfully use a variety of traditional and digital media. What may not be so evident, however, is Scott’s eagerness to learn and his refusal to accept anything less of himself than his best effort. In short, he has viewed each assignment as an opportunity. As a result, his technical and his conceptual skills have grown considerably in a relatively short period of time, and I’m certain they will continue to do so with each new challenge.

Scott has brought to his work at NECC the maturity, discipline, and self-knowledge that has enabled him to pursue graphic design with a strong sense of purpose and focus. He’s highly reliable: he has rarely missed a class and has not merely met all assignment deadlines, but—no matter how challenging the assignment or how many responsibilities he’s been juggling—has completed his work before the date due as well.

Scott has maintained his delightful sense of humor. He’s been a true asset to both faculty and his fellow students, and I’m sure he will be equally appreciated as an employee. He’s exactly the type of person the graphics studios I’ve worked for would hire in a minute: talented, versatile, self-motivated, and eager to learn.

If I can offer further information, please contact me.

Sincerely yours,

Terry Cargan
Assistant Professor, Dept. of Fine & Performing Arts
