Hello DP back again with yet ANOTHER contest leading up to a big one after this. This contest is to redesign our left hand navigational menu, seen here: www.pokerdepositoptions.com. The contest winner will deliver a PSD, and we'll do the coding. Our only design request is not to go too dark with this, because we just added that dark main table in the body yesterday. ***Each menu item should have a left hand icon, plus include a US/Not US function of some sort worked into the design. WE WILL MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENT ICONS, YOU DON"T HAVE TO DO THAT! (That would be a lot of extra work, and I wouldn't ask that at this price - but if you want to do the icons we will pay you extra. All we ask you to do is include one icon and show us a mockup of it on the site, in this thread. I will add more thoughts after we see a concept, thanks for looking DP - post questions here! Maybe This Example Menu Would Help: (See Their Right Side) xxxhttp://www.everypoker.com/ Not that dark, but the similar foundation of a concept please. After this contest, we have a $200 landing page contest for this same site!
My entry! http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk305/bizzard/pokerdepositoption-1.jpg Please feel free to suggest any changes that you would like to see.
Great concept to start us off, here is my feedback: I don't want a us flag on/mute, just a way to incorporate it in the ones that are US allowing. We will modify the PSD ourselves to suit this purpose. 2. Main objective in this contest is to see how to work in an icon, most likely on the left, of which we'll have three types of left menus on this site: a. "options" b. "sites" c. "countries" (found on the International Poker page). It's a ton of icons and we can either do them ourselves or pay the winner extra to do it, so we thought for the purpose of keeping the contest less work for those entering we'd just ask for one icon included. Hoping to see a bit more design. Hope this isn't all too confusing, even though there is three menus we only require one concept in a PSD. Edit - added an example link in OP.
Thanks for your quick comment ! here are mu update entry with few icon http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk305/bizzard/pokerdepositoptioncopy.jpg
Bizzard, that's exactly what I meant about the Icon now, that's a great mockup (although I hope to see something that doesn't use a huge flag like that, more blended) - you got it, now I hope to see a few more entries. Koe: Your entry is a cool color, what is with the alignment? Any other entries coming soon? Here is another example, especially about the US indicator: www.smartrakeback.com (I don't like this menu design even though it's my site, but the icon and anchor concept works well. Please Be Creative In Your Own Ideas, I'm Excited For More Concepts!
Its supposed to be a styling, for when the cursor is over it, but I'll reverse it if you dont want to. Any changes you suggest?
Try it with an actual icon of a poker site, like Bizzard did and looking closer I'm not sure that the color fits very well with the other? Hmmmm, hard to give more feedback right now on this one.
Update again! with change color scheme & flag icon http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk305/bizzard/pokerdepositoption-3.jpg
Nikki thanks for a fast entry! I like the colors and overall feel of your entry, I would prefer to see the US flag blended into the right corner on any entry. Overall the concept is very usable, but I'm not a fan of the shape you are using in the left corner. Hope this feedback helps.
Bizzard I really like the revision, but I'm not a fan of those icons that you took off SmartRakeback - I actually plan to get that design redone too!
Here's my entry, didn't really get the whole icon thing but I can revise it tomorrow morning, I'm off to bed too
Cool entry, you got the icon thing just fine because you showed how it would be incorporated I wonder if that font bleeds too much, it seems to "faint" but I like the background color.
