The Psychology of Color and Online Conversion

Posted By

One of the biggest influencers of online conversion, believe it or not, is the color scheme of a webpage. Through the right combination of colors, a company can increase leads, boost orders and see more visitors become clients. How does it work? How can you use color to your advantage in your website?

Here is Straight North’s overview on the basic principles of color psychology, along with some key tips for testing colors to maximize effectiveness!

Basic Principles of Color Psychology

1. Colors Affect Readability

The first principle of Web color is a pretty utilitarian one because, before you can consider the emotional ramifications of colors in Web design, you have to consider the practical ones, namely: Will your readers be able to see your messaging? “Readability relies a lot on typography but color contrast is also key to keeping text readable,“ says Tom Kenny of Inspect Element. “Make sure there is enough contrast between the text and the background colour or image.” Color, as much as size and font choice, directly affects the readability of your online text. Use appropriate contrast to make it possible for readers to understand the message you are seeking to convey.

Takeaway tip #1: Make sure your site's background color contrasts with the color of its text.

2. Colors Communicate Emotions

“When choosing colors for your designs, be deliberate; don’t use colors without purpose,” says Shannon Noack at Six Revisions. “Instead, use colors that are appropriate for your target audience, the message that the client wants you to convey, and the overall feelingyou want the user to experience on your site.” One key to using colors effectively is understanding what emotions they convey. While the specific connotations may vary based on audience, here are some traditional color meanings, along with examples of websites using those colors to communicate their messages:

  • Red: (Example: Intensity in Ten Cities) Can symbolize excitement, passion, importance or anger, aggression, emergency.
  • Orange: (Examples: World Vision, Whataburger) Sometimes brings to mind thoughts of happiness, joy, sunshine; other connotations include ignorance and deceit.
  • Yellow: (Examples: Chick-fil-A, Lipton) Often thought of as the color of joy, happiness, intelligence, brightness; sometimes connotes caution, criticism, jealousy.
  • Green: (Examples: Freecycle, Mint, Whole Foods Market) Thought of as healing, harmonious, safe, while also sometimes connected with money, greed, innocence or growth.
  • Blue: (Examples: Facebook) Can communicate a sense of peacefulness, calm, trust or loyalty; or alternatively, a sense of sadness, depression, coldness.
  • Purple: (Examples: Northwestern University, Yahoo) Long considered a color of royalty, purple can evoke a sense of luxury, wealth, spirituality, femininity, magic or mystique. Darker purples tend to symbolize sadness.
  • White: (Examples: Apartment Therapy, Anthropologie, Banana Republic, ) Can communicate purity, simplicity, cleanliness and safety as well as coldness and distance.
  • Black: (Examples: Wall Street Journal, Duracell) Often used to suggest formality or elegance, black actually has many versatile applications. It's the color most commonly associated with death and can sometimes suggest vastness or depth. Some individuals connect it with power or modernism.

Takeaway tip #2: Consider the emotional connotations of colors and how they may impact users.

3. Colors Interact with Each Other

There's a reason websites like ColourLovers and Color Blender exist. Different Colors interact with each other differently, whether that means complementing, contrasting or working together to communicate a certain message. One of the keys for determining what colors work best together in a given design is knowing your audience. "If you’ve carefully researched your target market ... you may already have an idea of what colors will work for them," says Pamela Wilson at CopyBlogger. "You don’t need to walk around your local shopping mall with a swatch book, but keep your eyes open to color combinations that sell to your particular market. Take inspiration from what’s already working."

Takeaway tip #3: Look around at other websites in your field to see what colors are working well.

4. Color Choice Should Be Consistent

"In general one can say that the risk of using too many colors is greater than the risk of using too few," says "Too many colors will make the page feel too busy and it usually makes it harder for the viewer to find the information he or she wants. It is also more tiring to the eyes." For this reason, many designers recommend using two to three colors consistently throughout your design. The main color should be used predominantly, with a secondary color complementing it and a third, highlighting color drawing attention to key elements and adding interest.

Takeaway tip #4: Select a handful of colors (i.e., 2 or 3) and use them consistently throughout your design, with one predominantly.

Takeaway tip #5: Highlight key information and draw attention to important elements through the use of color.

5. Web Colors Do Not Equal Print Colors.

"While it's only obvious to ensure you're working within acceptable limitations of color contrast in the general sense of design, we [as Web designers] have even more to contend with," says Jonathan Christopher of Monday by Noon. "That's because Web designers build materials to be viewed on computer monitors, which come in various types and sizes, meaning "many of the monitors on which your design will be displayed are of much less quality than yours." Because colors can look so different on different screens, it's a good idea to select colors that are typically brighter than what you'd use in print.

Takeaway tip #6: Use colors that work on various screens.

How to Test Color on Your Website

Even a Web design that takes into account all the above color design principles may still need to be tweaked to be its most effective---so how can you test your design to see where colors are or aren't working?

Here are a couple tips for measuring the effectiveness of the color on your site:

  1. Test One Thing at a Time. Because multiple variables can make it difficult to evaluate the results, plan to test your colors one element at a time. Change one aspect of color on your site and see what happens---then you'll be able to pinpoint the cause of the changes easily.
  2. Test Small but Important Elements. The truth is, changes to colors in certain key design elements, such as your contact info or call-to-action button, can potentially make a huge impact on results. As Aaron Bradley writes at Search Engine Land, "Testing always plays a pivotal role in conversion rate improvement, but it is particularly important in crafting a winning button." He adds, "Color has a demonstrable influence on whether or not a user will click on a call-to-action button, but determining precisely which button color will result in the highest number of clicks is, yet again, a matter of testing."
  3. Get Help When You Need It. If you're a company that wants to do color testing on your site but lacks the resources to do it internally, Straight North can help---contact us. We can support simple A/B split testing as well as much more complex testing methodologies.

The Old Ship Passes

The new Mac Pro

Man, I’m so excited about getting the new Mac Pro when it is available. Am I alone in this? I love my Macbook Pro retina screen, but I also like having a big workhorse in my studio for the heavy lifting. The only thing I was wondering about is its ability to power several 4K displays — and Apple does not make a 4K display. Any recommendations in this area would be appreciated! :)

Daily Photo – The Old Ship Passes

I was walking under this enormous modern bridge in Tokyo when this old ship started slowly floating by. I don’t know if this is a common site or not, but it was such a cool scene! Everything was coming together, as you know this is my favorite time of the dusk to shoot.

The boat was so awesome — I really wanted to get on it for a closer look. I wonder where it docks… I need to find out so I can visit it when I get back!

Commentary: Crafting a New Identity

Saturday, November 09, 2002

The American Craft Museum has just reinvented itself as the Museum of Contemporary Arts and Design. It's the fourth time since the museum was founded, just 46 years ago, that it has changed its name, and it makes Kurt Andersen think about the vanity of creative nomenclature.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Key Quotes

  1. “Give a nigger an inch and he’ll take an ell.” Chapter 16. This is a saying of Pap’s, recollected by Huck while he considers whether it is right to turn in Jim or not. It is recalled during one of Huck’s struggles with his conscience and illustrates the way in which it was easy for Huck to view himself as better than others. Ultimately, however, he abandons this view and learns humility.
  2. “Kill them! Kill them!” Chapter 18. The Shepherdsons shout this just before they kill Buck Grangerford and his cousin. Huck witnesses the awful event, and, in a way, it is like the death of his own innocence and childhood. (His innocence and childhood return in the end with the arrival of Tom Sawyer, of course). But from this point on, Huck becomes more responsible and more interactive in the lives of those around him—especially with the Wilks sisters and with Jim.
  3. “To be or not to be; that is the bare bodkin.” Chapter 21. It is the duke who states this as he attempts to teach the king Hamlet’s soliloquy. It shows, in a sense, the innocence and naivety of the two scoundrels and how it is equal to Huck’s. Indeed, they practice their swordplay on the raft like a couple of boys and the scene endears the two conmen to the reader, even if later on their actions arouse the reader’s indignation. This line humorously makes the duke and the king appealingly human, if only for a moment.
  4. “All right, then, I’ll go to hell.” Chapter 31. Huck pronounces this at a climactic moment in the narrative when he decides that he will reject conventional wisdom and free Jim on his own. It signifies that he is taking responsibility for another man and that he has matured to a point where he can make his own decisions without being influenced by what others say. It also raises Huck to a heroic level, as the sheer degree of consequence is one that concerns not only this mortal life, but the immortal life...

Work starts on Jellie Park sports centre

Last updated 14:44 18/10/2012

Relevant offers

A $3.5 million temporary high-performance sports centre will be built at Jellie Park by March.

Canterbury's star athlete at the London Paralympics, Sophie Pascoe, and Sport Minister Murray McCully today turned soil on the site to mark the start of the project.

The Government-funded facility will house a gym, an indoor sprint track, a full-size netball court, an athletes' lounge and office space for High Performance Sport New Zealand staff.

There has been no central training area for athletes since the earthquakes closed the high-performance facilities at Queen Elizabeth II Park, and the temporary facility is being developed with one eye on the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.

Pascoe said the centre was the start of what she would like to see built for sport in the next five years.

''Losing QEII was hard on all of us. We had everything at our feet,'' she said.

''This is just the start. I'd like to see it grow a lot more to bring the culture back to what we had before.''

McCully said he hoped the facility would be a springboard to getting sporting facilities operating again in Christchurch.

''It recognises the important contribution Canterbury makes to high-performance sport in New Zealand,'' he said.

Sport New Zealand chief executive Peter Miskimmin said what was being built did not compare with the status that QEII Park had in the community.

''It's not on the same scale as QEII. At the moment, this is just the home for the next four years,'' he said.

''Whether what we have created is a sort of QEIII, only time will tell.

''I don't necessarily want to compare it. I just think it's the circumstances Christchurch is in, and by March next year our athletes will have a home, which is great.''

The facilities will be mainly used by athletes, but the netball court will be available to the community when it is not being used by the Tactix.

Council community services manager Michael Aitken said the location of the centre was perfect because of the tie-in with the Jellie Park pool.

''You'll get things like a 5-year-old swimming next to Sophie Pascoe and thinking to themselves, 'Yep, that's inspirational stuff'.''

He said the centre was temporary and would be re-evaluated in four years.

The council would manage the facility, he said.

Macbook Pro 13" Really great machine. Does everything better than my work Dell laptop.
Glad to help. Things get out of alignment over time and some dealers do setup better than others. I would strongly consider taking it back and seeing if they will double check. Often they will do this for free or charge a small amount at worst.
Double check your VTA and VTF settings. What cartridge are you using? If stock, then upgrading to an Ortofon 2M line would be a nice upgrade.Also consider getting a Hunt EDA brush and LP cleaning machine. That will keep the static down.
The distributor of these is a good friend. Absolutely amazing table and built like a tank. I helped him assemble one and we needed a third guy to move all the road cases it comes in.Here's a picture of the final assembly.
No. Don't buy.
Yikes, that's pretty bad. I found the same thing was happening with my Michelin tires on the Lexus. I switched to Kumho Ecsta Platinum and got the same ride and twice the tire longevity.
They are good but I recently bought another Stearns & Foster with memory foam on top which is great and about 1/3 the price. I just could not see spending all that money. But if you really want it, go for it.
Here's my backup plan. 1. Rip the original CD in wave format to Mac Mini. Keep the CDs. I also do hirez PCM rips and keep those discs. 2. Backup the Mac Mini to external drive. 3. Backup that drive to second external drive. So I'd agree with above you always need a second backup drive. Drives fail more often than you would imagine.
Hard to capture a Stillman film in a trailer. I will probably give it a shot.

Denim-style jacket from Number (N)ine. I don't remember the season but it was purchased from the n(n) shop in NYC before it closed. Only worn a few times so is in perfect condition. Amazing details, darts in the front for a slim fit and also on the sleeves and at the back shoulder (similar to Dior). Snap closure in the front and at the cuff. Music note lining around both waist and cuff. Fit around the waist can be adjusted with the silver buckles on each side.

Size is 2, which is essentially an XS. I am typically a 44 and it fits me well with room to layer a bit under it, but would also work on a 46 with a slimmer fit.

Looking for $300 shipped within the states plus 4% for PayPal (or send as gift). Contact me for international shipping quotes.

TAG Motorsports Audi RS7 front 3/4 view

TAG Motorsports Audi RS7 is It

TAG Motorsports Audi RS7 front 3/4 view

Even though they share a parent company (Volkswagen) and a basic formula (all-wheel-drive hatchback luxury super sedan powered by a fire-breathing twin-turbo V8), the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Audi RS7 couldn’t really be more different. The Porsche is an arse-heavy (and just plain heavy) cudgel of an automobile that manages to be astonishingly agile (if not graceful) in spite of itself, whereas the Audi looks as athletic as it is despite being about 100 lbs. heavier than the Panamera Turbo. Strike that, it’s even more athletic than it looks, with 560 horsepower and 516 lb.-ft of torque from just four liters of displacement and an official 0-60 mph time of just 3.7 seconds.

TAG Motorsports Audi RS7 rear 3/4 view

Consequently, it’s easy for us to forgive TAG Motorsports for not messing with quattro GmbH’s underhood handiwork. In fact, the Vista, California shop didn’t really do much at all to this fastback heart attack: The Nardo Grey body is untouched aside from color-matched front side marker filler plates and badges refinished in satin bronze. The latter finish choice is because it matches that of the gorgeous P44SC wheels from HRE Performance Wheels.

Some people might call this approach to tuning lazy. Don’t count us among them; we say if limited changes are enough to noticeably alter the overall vibe of a car, then the real window dressing would be any further modifications. Let that marinate in your melon for a while…

The 'Tiltin' Hilton' up in smoke

MONTEZUMA - An A-frame residence in Montezuma, known to locals as the "Tiltin' Hilton," was destroyed in a fire Tuesday afternoon. Little remains of the structure where multiple people lived other than the remnants of a collapsed green roof and the scorched frame of the slightly uneven three-story addition that gave the decades-old home its nickname. No one was injured in the blaze. A resident of the home who was inside when the fire broke out was able to escape in time. Firefighters from Lake Dillon Fire-Rescue with assistance from Red, White and Blue Fire responded from their closest station in Keystone at approximately 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, and found the structure completely engulfed in flames. "We came busting up here and still couldn't make it in time," Lake Dillon Fire spokesman Steve Lipsher said. "Fortunately there were no injuries." It is still unclear what caused the blaze, although fire officials say it appears to have been accidental. An investigation of the ignition source is under way. Fourteen firefighters from the two local districts were able to suppress and contain the flames, protecting a neighboring home, by using water from a tank installed in the area two years ago, according to a statement from Lake Dillon Fire. Montezuma had previously had problems with fire hydrants freezing completely in the winter.

Nichole Steuart found inspiration in Summit County for designs she's showing at Fashion Week New Orleans

Nichole Steuart is sewing today. She’s doing it all day, and she’ll be sewing all day tomorrow, as well.

Though normally Steuart takes a few hours during her free time to design and sew clothing, this stepped-up production has a very specific deadline and goal — a fashion show and design contest in New Orleans.

The 26-year-old is one of 10 up-and-coming designers who are looking to break into the design industry. Fashion Week New Orleans is a five-day event featuring more than 50 fashion shows from emerging and established designers, boutiques and retailers.

“There will be some big influential people there, so I’m excited to do the meet-and-greet and see if I can get my name out there,” Steuart said.

Starting in design

Steuart, a native of Houston, Texas, attended Louisiana State University, graduating in 2010 with a degree in fashion design and a minor in business management. After graduation, she moved to Virginia, just outside of the Washington, D.C., area., where she got a job as a visual merchandiser for two high-end retail stores. Things weren’t moving quickly enough for her, however, so she decided to start her own company, called Wicked Symbol.

“At the time, the style was very vintage, hipster, taking older thrift clothes and making them (my) own,” she said.

She sold primarily to vintage stores in the area and used connections in the music world to do a few shows in connection with concerts.

“Because it was kind of that grungy, vintage look, it did really well at the shows,” she said.

Colorado calling

It was in 2012 that Steuart got a call from a friend who had moved to Colorado and who urged her to come out, too. She decided to take the leap, packing up her things and driving to Summit County.

Since then, she’s been working as a server at Copper Mountain Resort, splitting her free time between enjoying the outdoors and working on design concepts.

“I’m actually somewhat happy that it turned out the way it did,” she said, on being unattached enough from the industry to move to Summit, “because I don’t think I would ever have moved here, and I do love it here.”

Since moving here, she’s done some custom work — a prom dress, several coats — and had been selling pieces to The Snob Shop in Denver, before it changed owners.

At the beginning of the year, Steuart got a message from a college friend who was working at Fashion Week New Orleans. The friend thought Steuart would be a good candidate and suggested she apply. Steuart did, sending a portfolio, and was contacted several weeks later with an invitation.

“The last month and a half has been nothing but me working and me sewing,” Steuart said. “I haven’t really thought of anything but getting ready for this show.”

Each entrant in the Top Design Competition must enter eight to 12 outfits, and Steuart is planning on nine. Her unifying theme, she said, is a fall/winter ready-to-wear collection with a business-casual attitude.

“The color scheme is very neutral. I’ve got a lot of blacks, olive greens, tans. There’s a decent amount of stripes in there, too,” she said. “My inspiration was actually the styles out here, like in Summit County, and utilizing how a lot of people out here are very casual, so taking that and using a lot of really nice silks and leathers and amping up these very simple shapes to make them look nicer, but they’re still very comfortable to wear.”

Comfort and style are Steuart’s focus, and how to blend them together for the perfect outfit.

She doesn’t believe that a person needs to choose one over the other.

“My style has definitely changed since I’ve gotten here,” she said, referring to the influences of Summit County, and her fashion show in New Orleans will show that.

“I want it to look like a fall and winter collection and have that kind of appeal for a mountain town, but could also roll over into different areas.

This cave is located on the south of motelghoo a part of tonekabon.It is 2033 meters long and full of adventure!Its an active cave which seems to be unique as much as we know. Just bats were seen in the first hall and no other animals.
At first its almost easy but the farther you go the harder it becomes.
The amount of water in the cave is influenced by the season so we choosed this time of the year wich the water becomes less than any other time.
It takes more than 6 hours to go to the end and come back. The main path has been completely explored but it's still too soon to say that we know the cave exactly. The paths which are different from the main one needs careful consideration.

Some Details

Daniyal Cave-3rd hall
The octopus

The cave entrance is about 300 meters above sea level. Just after entering the cave you start descending in an almost steep slope then there is a horizontal tunnel about 150 meters long with the river flow and this is the best place to do the last arrangements of group before getting deep into the cave.
The rest is a great collection of almost all kinds of stalegtites and stalegmites. Flowstones in this cave are so shining and nice. Be ready for the treasure of beauty. Deep inside Daniyal there are great places for turning the headlights off and listening to the music of water, Places for listening to yourself.

How to reach?

Getting to Tonekabon is quite easy from Tehran.There are few buses every day and also cars both available from West-Terminal of Tehran just beside Azadi sq. You can also fly to Ramsar and then drive to Tonekabon for about 25 minutes.
You should go to motelghoo from tonekabon.then from motelghoo suare you can get to daniyal village on the south of motelghoo.you should ask daniyal's people to show you the way to the cave entrance.Just a 10 minute walk will easily take you to the cave.Now enjoy! Beside the cave there is a great place to take a walk beside the river if there are people with you not wishing to join the caving program.

very very old!

Important to know

Tiny Bat
Comming out of water
Daniyal Cave-main hall

1: Bring some extra clothes with yourself so you can change them with the wet ones when you get out of the cave.
2: The water in the cave is not too cold but for more than 5 hours there is no place to get warm,so be ready for that if you want to get in there.
3:No technical equipment or skill is needed in Daniyal. But you need to be in a good shape and not to big! There are some places you should pass just as a worm!

  • From our Principal's Desk

    I am proud enough that I am attached with the school as the Principal. The school has achieved already a great reputation since its birth to this present time. My motto is to reach the school to its heights as a good Secondary School in this locality of Behala and Kolkata. The journey in this respect has just started when many more milestones are to achieve.

    Our school’s infrastructures give children a friendly atmosphere in learning process. I acknowledge that our management is always eager to incorporate all sorts of latest technology to keep pace with the educational trends and techniques of the educational community. Latest, we have adopted nGURU Interactive Classrooms for multimedia with Interactive smart boards which will help both the teachers and the taught to achieve excellence in learning process.

    In this regard, I must say about our teaching and non-teaching staffs, who are very much dedicated honest, responsible personalities. In the noble task of educating, grooming the children’s all round personalities or making them a responsible citizen of India, teachers, staffs are definitely “Gems” of Sunny.

    So I hope our school will prosper more in future with the “One Unit of Management, Teachers, Staffs and Parents.”

Sam Mendes and the Skyfall Cast on the Istanbul Shoot

With the Skyfall crew now in Istanbul, Turkey, this marks the third time in the 50 year history of the James Bond franchise that the city has served as a backdrop to 007’s adventures, with previous outings including From Russia With Love and The World Is Not Enough.

And whilst Daniel Craig has arrived in the city with the cast and crew of Skyfall, Istanbul isn’t the only Turkish location the team has been visiting; further filming locations include Adana and the coastal city of Fethiye.

To mark the occasion, a photocall and press conference was held today with producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, director Sam Mendes, and cast members Daniel Craig, Naomie Harris, Bérénice Marlohe, and Ola Rapace. You can watch a highlight video below:

View Full Version : YouTube not working on 42PFL6007/T12

09-05-2012, 06:00 AM
TV: 42PFL6007/T12

The general YouTube app menu works, but once I select a video it only buffers some 10s and then (despite the play button being active (i.e. the pause button is visible on the on-screen-control)) nothing happens - simply a black screen.

Have reinstalled youtube app, updated the app, restarted TV and restarted internet. Still doesnt work.

What is wrong? How can I fix this?

09-05-2012, 06:46 AM

which firmware is installed on your TV (latest is 133.5).

09-05-2012, 06:52 AM
Hi and thank you for your fast reply!
Forgot to mention that I updated the TVs firmware:
Firmware: QF1EU-

When I try updating it says that there is no new update for my TV.

Kind regards

09-07-2012, 05:51 AM
Hi again!
Now the Youtube app spontaneously started working - both audio and video. However, during the same session it has stopped working (with remaining functioning internet connection). Now it buffers ca 20seconds, plays audio for around 5s, but no video plays.

Would be grateful for any advice!

09-07-2012, 07:01 PM
you make probably use of wireless connection.

can you try the same thing with wired connection?
if this runs fine then your wireless connection is the problem.
you could try then to change the wireless channel of your router (G or N?)

09-09-2012, 06:18 PM
No, I am entirely certain that I am using the wired connection (changed the wireless pw etc).

Its hard to determine causality when these things occur, but after emptying the internet cache the app started to work. That could be coincidental, or it could be the solution.

Irrespectively right now its working. All in all it the youtube tv app, albeit the most useful smarttv app to date in sweden, seems to be rather unstable....

11-05-2012, 11:09 PM
Hello, I have the same issue. Wired connection, but I can't get online videos from youtube.
1) Very low download speed (no problem in Laptop or iPad, same network)
2) Very short cache time

Any help?

ASAPS-Member Surgeons Volunteer for Service to Victims of Terrorist Attacks

New York, NY (September 17, 2001) — Members of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) are among the dedicated medical personnel assisting victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. In addition to those plastic surgeons already actively involved in treating the injured, ASAPS has received e-mails from its members around the country, and around the world, volunteering to assist in whatever ways possible.

“We have received e-mails not only from our American members, asking what they can do to help and offering to come to New York or wherever they are needed, but we’ve also heard from plastic surgeons as far away as Australia, Brazil, Israel and Russia,” says ASAPS President Malcolm D. Paul, MD. “All of us are united in our resolve to do whatever we can – now and in the future -- for the victims of this terrible tragedy.”

New York area hospitals say that they are fully staffed with plastic surgeons at present and not in need of additional assistance. Some ASAPS members who rushed to hospitals immediately upon learning of the situation at the World Trade Center were put on standby. Others, mainly those who are on staff at hospitals in close proximity to the disaster, were put to work caring for the injured.

“I was very privileged to be actively involved with the care of the World Trade Center patients,” says plastic surgeon Joseph M. Jabbour, MD, on staff at St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York. “St. Vincent’s is the Trauma Center located nearest to the WTC. We were as prepared as anyone can be for such an unbelievable crisis.

“The plastic surgery patients, who mostly were suffering from burns, underwent immediate debridement of the skin that was literally hanging off of their arms and legs. After stabilization, the worst of the burn patients were transferred to the Burn Unit at New York Hospital.”

Another ASAPS-member surgeon, Alan Matarasso, MD, said he and many of his colleagues who rushed to area hospitals felt very frustrated that they could not, personally, do more to help.

“At the ambulance receiving entrance to the emergency room, there were hundreds of volunteers -- physician assistants, nurses, medical students and residents from all specialties, along with orderlies and hospital administrators – all of us anxiously waiting to be called into action. Only after many hours on stand-by was it finally clear, based on news reports and returning emergency rescue teams, that there was nothing for most of the medical volunteers to do.

“There were so few saved. Most of the manned trauma rooms, with all personnel on disaster alert, remained shockingly empty. The sense of helplessness was truly overwhelming.”

Dr. Jabbour reports that the staff of St. Vincent’s continues to provide ongoing treatment to the surviving victims. “The first skin grafts have been performed, and the work continues,” he says. Despite the tireless efforts of so many medical personnel, says Dr. Jabbour, the real heroes are the rescuers. “This is a time to give thanks to those who risked and lost their lives so that as many victims as possible could reach us. Without those heroes, we could have done nothing. God bless them and all those who perished, and God bless those who remain.”

ASAPS-member plastic surgeons wishing to volunteer assistance are currently being directed to the American Medical Association (312-464-4584, or 312-464-4422) which is compiling a list of physicians who will be called upon should the need arise.

The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), is recognized as the world’s leading organization devoted entirely to aesthetic plastic surgery and cosmetic medicine of the face and body.  ASAPS is comprised of over 2,600 Plastic Surgeons; active members are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (USA) or by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and have extensive training in the complete spectrum of surgical and non-surgical aesthetic procedures. International active members are certified by equivalent boards of their respective countries. All members worldwide adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and must meet stringent membership requirements.

  • 2/14/2014 Great fit

    rating star By Mary Lynne J.

    This suit is great for water aerobics. The straps do not slip off the shoulders. The high neckline and conservative legs are very comfortable and flattering to the older user. The fabric is chlorine resistant and has a pretty sheen. It is fully lined. The slightly padded bra is just right.

  • 1/17/2014 shape ok

    rating star By irma

    It fits nicely except for a crease inbetween the breast area; also, the straps tend to get turned around. It would be better if they were wider. But otherwise the suit feels comfortable for swimming.

  • 10/19/2013 Flex back

    rating star By Dianne S.

    Great: good support for ample breasts. Feels very good in the water for aerobics.
    Not so great on dry land because of the straps, which cross in the back.
    Straps are too narrow and awkward to straighten on my back. My husband must adjust the back straps. I won't buy this style again with the straps crossing in an X in the back. The suit fits fine but it is difficult to get on and off because of the straps.

    rating star By Nannydiver

    Color great, fabric good, looked really nice.
    The fit was way off. Top was nice and snug, but alas! The bottom was very long. The crotch two inches or more too long. If you pulled it up the right area, you had rolls of fabric around the waist, not a pretty sight. Would be great for someone very long waisted.

    rating star By croatprncss

    This is a fantastic swimsuit that holds you in, in all the right places, and is flattering to a fuller figure.

  • 10/8/2010 Size depends on color

    rating star By Esther

    A black size 6 of this item fits right, perhaps a little bit snug pulling it up. I also ordered a size 6 navy and absolutely cannot get it on and have to return it for an exchange.

    This suit has lasted a year in a chlorinated pool used for four hours per week.

  • 11/20/2009 not exactly what I had thought

    rating star By Rebecca L.

    Nice material, but not at all what I would call a built in bra; more like padded cups sewn in.  Not enough support for a D cup or higher.  Comes down pretty far on the hips.  I will probably have to send it back because I need support in the bust for fitness classes.

    I bought this swimsuit for lap swimming at the YMCA.  All the suits I have used in the past have been eaten away by chlorine.  This suit has not faded or stretched out.  It is also very comfortable.  The only complaint I do have is the straps are hard to get straightened out while putting it on.  But overall... I would recommend this suit to anyone who does water aerobics or lap swimming.

  • 7/22/2015 great suit for h2o cardio

    rating star By Heidi D.

    I've been wearing this suit 3 days a week for 3+ months and LOVE IT!  Great bust support, straps stay put (although they get a little tangled while putting on, but I can reach to fix that myself), and no ride up in the behind.  It's holding up beautifully in the water.  I ordered one size up from my jeans size.  Very comfortable while doing a level 3 aerobic workout and lap swimming.

    rating star By Djean

    Has held its shape after 10 months of frequent use in chlorinated swimming pools. Only wish that the body was about 1/2" longer for a bit more coverage on the hiney.

  • 6/10/2015 Best swim suits ever

    rating star By Jeannie ford

    I spend 55 hours each month in the pool teaching swim lessons and water aerobics, I never have a chance to rinse out my suits. It is so amazing how long the suits last. Out of 10 I give swim outlet a 15. Thank you so much.
