It always puts smiles on our faces when we see the much deserved attention that Sheri and Rich Schmelzer get for Jibbitz. Slice of Lime built the original Jibbitz website, variations on the Jibbitz website, and has since created the Jibbitz Stylizer, a fun Flash application that allows you to build out your Jibbitz creations to share with friends or purchase. Soon after building the original site, Jibbitz sold to Crocs for $20 million.

The article and video (seen above) highlights their amazing success story. Congratulations Sheri, Rich, and team!

It really doesn’t get any better than this in terms of customer feedback. V and Kat host the vkat23 Channel on YouTube and are the self proclaimed “craziest kooko ppl in the world.” They put big smiles on our faces as they talked about the Jibbitz Stylizer and showed off how easy and fun it is to create your own Jibbitz masterpiece - actually, we think they preferred the phrase, “this is so fly.”

The Stylizer is a project that Slice of Lime completed in 2007 and was recently highlighted in the Boulder County Business Report. You can read about our process in creating this section of the site for Jibbitz here.

Thanks V and Kat! We’re honored that you’re enjoying the Stylizer so much that you made it a part of your show. That, dare we say it, is “super-fly”.

At Slice of Lime, we take on one or two pro-bono projects every year. Recently, an organization named Wish for Wheels approached us and we couldn’t resist. They are a local non-profit that gives brand new bicycles to underprivileged kindergarten kids on graduation day.

During our kick-off meeting yesterday, they started talking about how rewarding it is to see the expressions on the faces of these kids as they exited graduation and found a parking lot full of brand new bikes! I couldn’t help but think of some 8 millimeter footage my parents took of my first bike. I found the video and posted it here. There’s a special place in our hearts for the memory of our first bicycles which I’m sure many of us share.

We’re excited to get started on this project and also to volunteer on graduation day!

Slice of Lime hosted a shuffleboard party for the TechStars team this past summer.
