• $location = $eventdetails[0]['field_event_where_value'];• $from = $eventdetails[0]['field_event_date_value'];• $to = $eventdetails[0]['field_event_date_value2'];

• $imgsrc = '';• $images = $db->fetch_all_array("select * from upload where nid=$eventid");

• foreach($images as $img){• $imgx = $img['description'];• $imgsrc .= '<img src="../fyp/sites/defaults/files/'.$imgx.'" width = "25"

height="25"></img>';• }

Where’s the actual thing? Here we are..! www.springsvision.com

Ofcourse, few snaps cannot explain it all..

Please bear with me for a few moments & let me

expose more of the system’s potential!!

Still Assertive? Let us explain..

How we are different from the already existing similar services..

• All event management systems are not created equal. Just like automobiles, For most planners provides business application for executive and commercial events, but springs vision provide a platform to create personal events and share with your guests and friends. And promote your to the others using facebook, twitter, myspace, yahoo, google buzz, linkedin.

Future Potential Of Such Concept?

• Event technology provider should offer assistance in a wide variety of areas such as building events for you, proposing effective event marketing plans, designing impressive event invitations, and general consultation on how to make your events and meetings successful. Look for a system provider that wants to work with you to ensure improvement and long term success for your meetings and events.

.. Conclusions

• Our goal is provide a useful to platform of event management solution at personal level to the end user. Personalize the profile, customize the event, cast the event and share it on social networking platform for marketing and promotion.

THE END? NO…!! BECAUSE…

• We visualize the SpringsVision concept to be on one of the most successful services list by the will of Almighty ALLAH. Of course this aim will take time and improve with time, user feedback, our professional growth etc. Please send your feedback and ideas to improve at feedback@springsvision.com
