$170 Website - Build around current logo! Challenge!

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by AndrewMKP, Jun 29, 2009.

    Hi all,

    We are currently in build mode of our new company and need a website pretty quick! We already have a logo and would like you to create a website with it, I.e it must fit with the logo! We don't have the time to develop one ourselves so have put it to contest here on DP only. :D

    What we need!
    # Something clean, crisp and clear, light colours prefered.
    # It needs to work with the current logo.
    # Need PSD and coded versions - PSD designers can enter but price would change.
    # Preferably .php and must be validated code.

    Company background
    # Formed from two original companies.
    # Company based around IT, hosting, webdesign, Market Research, Consultancy, Printing, campaign strategies, telephone canvassing.

    Payment
    # I will make payment via Paypal to the winner on completion and satisfaction and receive the full amount of $170.
    # I will not pay $170 for a PSD only version, would negotiate on price of perhaps around $50-$100, depending on factors.

    EXTRA!
    We have spikes in our company for web design, the winning designer could be offered exclusivity of overflow work. This would be a great source of work for you freelancers! If the winner declines the offer we will then look at offering it to other entrants based on quality of work.
    Some may say you are not only entering to win the money but also for a seperate and no marketing source of projects for you?

    Logo: http://i44.tinypic.com/9jozkh.jpg

    Submissions should be done via this thread however if you do send it via PM please post here letting me know you have done so.

    Goodluck and I reserve the right to close to contest early or extend it if we don't see anything that we like!

    Closing date is Monday 6th July (evening/night) depending when I get online! May close before if we find a design we like to get them in!

    Kind Regards & Goodluck to all,

    Andy

    P.S - Rep+ added to all entrants and feedback given.

    Hello,

    Just wondering whats the status on this since no designs have been submitted on the forum?

    If this is still on could you answer my following questions please:

    1.Could you provide additional info regarding the "style"you want it to be(corporate,web 2.0,grungy,catoonish,futuristic & so on) since its a project theme that can take many forms?
    2.Could you provide some links to websites you like so we can get a sense of what you like?
    3.By bright colors are you reffering to colors like white,grey or colors like red,blue.yellow?

    Thank you,
    awd

    Hi all,


    Is the image working now?


    Same, is the logo working now at this URL: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v40/Slayerfanatic/contestlogo.jpg


    Essentially, I'd love to have a porfolio page available including the simple contact us, about, etc etc, you don't need to worry about necessarily adding information yourself but the better the design and the more effort you put into it the more likely I am to pick it.


    Excellent, can't wait!


    AWD: It takes time for people to create designs on top of other work as well, people will start submitting it soon I'm sure or sending it via PM. And yes it is still open and likely to be extended.
    1. I'd like to have a mix of corporate and web 2.0 really.
    2. Yes I can:
    > http://www.oakstudentletts.com/ - I like how this uses colour very well but is still has a professional feel.
    > https://mkpipe.com/hosting/ I like how the table has the image type lines embeded into the css and code either side of the table and also the images have the gloss etc

    As you can tell am not very good at describing what I already like, I will continue to provide feedback though to ensure the final product is top notch!

    I'm not too sure about any others, you need to take into account we will be selling hosting which means perhaps some seperate areas for each package etc for the hosting area? Different services as stated above also need to be taken into account.

    3. By bright colours I mean to use colour effectively and not a simple plain website. You need to use your imagingation for this one.

    Hope this clears some stuff up for you AWD and the other entrants for that matter.

    Regards,

    Andy

    Yeah I still can't see it either. That's a good suggestion though about someone else reuploading - if anyone can we'd really appreciate it :)

    Thanks for uploading the logo awd but for some reason I can't see that either. I'm wondering whether the file has been corrupted or something (although that doesn't explain why you could see it).

    joidiamonds - can you see it?
