Sep 25th 2008, 3:11 pm
I have recently posted the same contest; however I only got 3 people to respond. I guess the offer was too low or it's a vacation season. ;)
This is a repost for a web design for Massage Therapy website. Company name is Healthy Choice.
Please, do not send PM. Post all your work here.
I would like this to be a 3 day contest. Best work will be paid asap, and that person gets the entire project for an additional fee.
We want:
1) elegant, professional look
2) design should not be busy-looking.
3) must be a therapeutic-like, not a SPA!
Inside pages: (for buttons)

I am looking forward to see good work this time. We believe offer is more than fair. Since the amount is higher, we will be picky in regards to work submitted. If no winner is picked by end of this contest (Monday midnight EST), the contest will be closed.
And the offer is..... $200 !!!
Expect to see at least 20 serious submissions, not just some templates that I can get from templatemoster or similar.
Good luck guys. Looking forward to your entries.

Thank you. There are many good designers here and I'm sure $200 is worth submitting a nice design work.
If it's not done within 3 days, let's say, it can be extended to 5 days, but not more than that. I think that's fair. Not too many people offer $200 for a PSD design here. ;)

You'll probably get 10 submissions at most to be honest, maybe not even that.
I'll enter if I have time.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice competition with a cool prize.
I just think you need to lower your expectations if you genuinely believe you'll receive that many submissions in just 3 days.

Not to be mistaken for a troll or anything, but I honestly think the contest holder deserves more than an edited template:

Sorry everyone. Just fairly new in web design. That's why I tried searching for template I could do in Photoshop. The template has been removed and I'll probably try to be original next time. Sorry.

Guys, I would like to remind ones again. We do not need a design of a SPA site. It's a Massage Therapy Clinic. It's a medical treatment massage therapy. Please do keep that in mind.
Thank you!

Actually, it's funny, because my client liked a template that looks similar to what you posted here.

I will have a client over tomorrow, he will go over this contest. If he likes something, I will post the winner here and the winner can finish the work.
Again, thank you all for your submissions. 6 hours left till the end of the contest. Hoping to see more work!
P.S. Was this designed from scratch or it's a modified template?

Spa is for relaxing and skin care. Massage therapy is for people who have pain in the back, etc. People who need medical massage after car accidents, etc. This is not spa.

Guys,
Nobody left the DP. I was away for 3 days.
I emailed client last night and here is his response to me.
------------------
Hi Karen,
I have been going over the design samples you sent me, and unfortunately I can't say that there is something that attracted me a lot. There are some good designs, but I can't justify spending $200 for something which is not perfect in my opinion.
I will be looking for a designer locally, have an interview and hopefully we can finish the project within a couple of weeks.
Again, sorry it took so long and thank you for your help.
Regards,
Marc
------------------
So, this is what I got from my client. Sorry guys. It's not up to me. Client didn't want any of the designs.
Maybe we get lucky next time...
Thank you all for your submissions. It's greatly appreciated. It's good to know that we can reply on you next time.
We loose some, we win some, so, there is always next time.
Thanks again!

LOL!... your client didn't give any feedback on any designs here.... to make it percfect choice. As if we felt that we been ripped-off, by sending you our ideas on the designs. You have been noted, as I won't enter any of your future contests... we have done our efforts and hardwork to nothing!

You are being quite negative here.
People are different. One person may give a feedback, another may not. Why are you blaming me personally? It's not really fair.
I wasted 2 weeks of communicating with people here, and you wasted your time designing something. We both wasted time. Client didn't like the work - what can "I" do? Make him pay?
Ok, send me your paypal account, i'll pay you from my own pocket. I will see if you can take it.
P.S. This is a contest. People may like/dislike work. If they like something - they may provide feedback. If they don't like something - they don't waste time. I know it's hurting, but I didn't get any feedback from the client, so i don't know what to post. This is why i posted his email to me.
Any contest is a risk!

I just found out that the client went with a free template which I indicated earlier in this contest.
I would provide you with feedback if I had it. This contest was submitted on behalf of a customer, so your blood pressure doesn't do any good here. You're only showing that you are hard to deal with. Something happens - you get upset. This is not what we are here for.
I've done previous contests and people were paid. I ordered a lot of work here and everything was ok. With your statement here about noting me - you make others not participate in my contests, and that is not right, because it does not always depend on me.
I don't think I would ever act like that.
There is an etiquette, which everyone of us should follow, and you're being very aggressive.:(

Obviously my brain "processes" a little better than yours, considering you left out about fifteen words there. My itrader has nothing to do with anything. I don't do much business here, not that I need to justify myself.
If you don't like not winning contests, don't enter them. If you can't handle the truth, don't expect to get far in the design world.
