New Scooped! website



Scooped! Limited launched its new website this week - and now YOU can create your own spoof newspaper front page in just 60 SECONDS.

Using the latest state-of-the-art technology, Scooped! customers can name a friend or loved one Christmas No1 or Mother/Father of the Year in the same time as it takes to make a cuppa.

The personalised newspaper and magazine gifts at Scooped! are second to none .. because they are all written and designed by real journalists.

Director James McIvor - a former Chief Sub-Editor at The Sun - said: "We have spent a lot of time getting our website just right and we are thrilled by how it looks and functions.

"Our customers now only need to provide very basic information like their name and age and upload a single image and their very own newspaper front page comes to life there and then.

"If they don't like that particular template they can click another and all their information transfers to that category.

"It couldn't be easier to use and it's great fun to see yourself on the front page of a joke newspaper."

The Scooped! team hasn't just been working on their new website - they have also been developing their finished product and now offer their fake newspapers in three different styles - a single sheet, a newspaper 'wrap' or a framed page.

James, 32 - who has also worked for the Sunday Times, News of the World and Sunday Mail - added: "There has been a lot of trial and error but the finished article is now spot on. The page size is the exact dimensions of a tabloid newspaper and we used recycle paper to give that off-white newsprint feel to the page.

"We have created generic back pages for each of our newspaper titles and if a customer orders a newspaper wrap they can insert a newspaper inside so it looks and feels exactly like the real thing.

"If they put their spoof newspaper on the kitchen table for the recipient to find in the morning, they really will think they are starring on the front page of a newspaper."
