$350, Yes $350 - 1 Page Site (Design & Code)

[rfranta]

Details
========
$350 design and code the site
Contest ends Wednesday 8/20 at Noon PST
Guaranteed winner if there are at least 8 entries

Take a look at this site:
www.mycelebritylifestyle.com

I like the page layout how the background stays but the center section scrolls up and down. I am open to what it looks like. Should have travel stuff on it and some excitement images some cash or toys of some kind. The "cash" angle should not be too exagerate - a little understated, but present would be better.

Would like to find someone that is open to having an on-going relationship doing minor modifications, other designs in the future, etc... Needs to be someone who can do quick turnarounds and who is good with both design and coding.

Here are some more details...

You can look at the header image on:

www.boltonbails.com

The company name is M.O.R. Vacations, the Team name is Team Diamond and it features me, Rob Franta and Jim Loretto...

Those details should all be worked into the design.

Hi , I'm going to work on this. Is all of the content from the current site still going to be on the new design ?
I imagine that you are want to keep all of your current content but want a new design for the web page and then have your content added ?

That is not my site.

I just like to way the site works. the content will be different. Will still be a vacation oriented theme.

I don't want to site to be so overpowering with the money and toys. Subtle suggestions of wealth will work much better for me. I would like to see something bule and chrome.

I will code the text my self. but I will need the optin box in the center of the page.

[Revamped Solutions]

Hmm, i'll see what i can do with this.

Quick questions though.

1.perferred width?
2. colors?


and any additional info would be great.

The width of that site is about right. I like darker blues, and chrome would be neat. if it could be done a look good. anything that looks tropical would be good as well. I am open .

[Dark Rider]

I'm in... expect some thing by the end date ;)

[inzpiration]

Great! i'm in for this one too! Wait for my entry soon! ;) Thanks!

Here is a screenshot of my design so far. It is @75% and is only the PSD files. I am a designer and developer and am going to start coding now but I will not put any text, etc. until I know you like what I have done. The background will be static and the center will scroll as you requested.

Dont be such a crank man. Noone is forcing you to take part

[hsbsitez]

I am simply requesting that he does not PM me about his contests.

[rfranta]

I would have to find someone to code it. I would guess knock off 100 bucks so I could pay a coder.

I like teh overall design the header image is a little too busy for me. The overall design just looks dated (old) I am looking for something that looks cutting edge. New, Exciting I don't get an excited feeling when I look at your design but it could work with some changes. Mainly in the header image.

[inzpiration]

Ok, here's my entry, hope you like it! Here's the preview and the working demo, (Already coded) The site is ready so you just have to put your text there.

I Like it can I see some changes.

I would like to pull or names off..

Change the business name to just M.O.R. Biz and then add a diamond to the header. Either before or after the word team.

Maybe some subtle images of cash in the background of header image

[inzpiration]

Ok, I've done some changes to the design, please take a look, ;) Feedback please.

I like this but looks a little too old. Just does not look like cutting edge

[rfranta]

Revamped i did just see yours i dont care for the diamonds in th elettering.

[rfranta]

Mantero

Can you do something wth the money that is floatng around to makre it look more realistic in the heqder image it looks odd

I like the second one the best can you move the money from number 3 to number two.

The money at the bottom looks real out of place can you fix that.

[Dark Rider]

here is a tropical type design I'm working on..

http://www.shawnlucas.com/mor.jpg

if you dont like the style and want some thing more the style of the other designs I can do that as well. hope you like it :)

edit: btw I will purchase all istockphotos used if this design is chosen.

[rfranta]

Hey rfranta are you still open to new entries or have you got enough to review?

This is a ver neat design. Can you get some bamboo border, drift wood or palm tree borders on either side, to and bottom of the white text area. I am not crazy about the top border on the text area I like the idea I just dont like the images used in this area. The wood image you used look fake and cheap.

Other than that this one is very nice. We have decided to remove our names from the Title box so you can remove rob franta and jim loreto's

Thanks

[Dark Rider]

Thanks for the feedback. I got a little time to work on it so here are some changes:

http://www.shawnlucas.com/mor2.jpg

I'll work on this more before midnight tonight. It would be great to get some more feedback before then so I can make any other changes you might like.

Thanks, Matt

[rfranta]

Thank you everyone there were a lot of nice entries..;

The winner is mantero.

[rfranta]

Mantero have not heard from you the contest is over and payment has been made. Please contact me with the files. I am in great need of these quickly.

[a4hire]

Congrats to Mantero.
Thanks for the contest Rob.

[rfranta]

Mantero I am still wating to hear from you it has been days now and no word.

I am becoming concerned payment was sent and confirmed by you and I have not heard from you since plaese send me an update. I am in need of these files ASAP.

Rob

[rfranta]

Mantero 4 days now. Please refund my money or deliver the promised design and code.

[Revamped Solutions]

Oh wow thought this was already done and over with.

I hope you get your product sir.

[DaveyBoy]

What sometimes happens is the designer will have to out-source the coding if they cannot do it themselves and this can lead to knock-on problems if the coder is taking his time is delivering. If it is the case, you should warn the contest holder of this situation. If not, maybe mantero just needs to buck up his ideas! ;)

[inzpiration]

see, that's the problem, the designs mantero submitted were amazing but they have to be coded so that they meet the specs Rob gave us, like the static BG.

Anyway, if something goes wrong, it seems it already has, PM me and I'll send you one of my templates already coded for ya! ;)

Peace!

Thats fine if he needed time for someone to code it. A simple message to that effect is all it takes. I have not heard from this guy in over 5 days now.

Not to mention I paid him way more than the job deserved. Because I wa sin a hurry. He could of just sent me the images. He claimed he could code it no problem. I not sure what happened but there is no excuse for this.

Thanks I had someone else already step up and help me out on this.
