Colony Press, Inc. ventured to create this new website as a means to keep the "Home Improvement Industry" attuned to the most effective Direct-Response Advertising options.   Special Services and the Highest Quality Products are what Colony Press, Inc. is known for throughout the industry.  Colony Press now offers 4 different ways the Home Improvement Industry may achieve greater success in reaching their respective markets.

Colony Press, Inc. enlisted the many talents of Bruce Schmidt 'The Professor' owner of TomCat Production's VisualTHUNDER because of his expertise in Internet Publications.  

They hope you enjoy your visit here at  www.ColonyPress.com and as you will see, the end results of combining the many talents of Colony Press, Inc. and TomCat Productions have produced a product they can both be proud of.  We hope you will visit often as they continue to add new features and programs to support the "Home Improvement Industry".

SUBMISSIONS

Colony Press, Inc. is pleased to hear from our loyal fans and welcomes your comments regarding Colony Press, Inc. products and services, including Colony Production's online services. Unfortunately, however, Colony's company policy does not allow it to accept or consider creative ideas, suggestions, or materials other than those it has specifically requested. We hope you will understand that it is the intent of this policy to avoid the possibility of future misunderstandings when projects developed by Colony's professional staff might seem to others to be similar to their own creative work. Accordingly, we must, regretfully, ask that you do not send us any original creative materials such as stories or character ideas, or screenplays. While we do value your feedback on our services and products, we request that you be specific in your comments on those services and products, and not submit any creative ideas, suggestions, or materials.

If at our request you send certain specific submissions (e.g., postings to Colony Press, Inc.' art / photos, chat boards, or contests) or, despite our request that you not send us any other creative materials, you send us creative suggestions, ideas, notes, concepts, or other information (collectively, the "Submissions"), the Submissions shall be deemed, and shall remain, the property of Colony. None of the Submissions shall be subject to any obligation of confidence on the part of Colony, and Colony shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submissions. Without limitation of the foregoing, Colony shall exclusively own all now known or hereafter existing rights to the Submissions of every kind and nature throughout the universe and shall be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submissions for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to the provider of the Submissions.
