I'm also confused! You said you wanted something similar and stille creative.. You use the word proffessional, but what exactly do you think of, when you say this? I'm sure we would all like to help you do this design, you desire, but to be 100% frankly.... We don't quite get what ecactly it is you whish for? If you cold plase be more specific in your feedback, it would be possible to alter the designs along the way. It is not just you who is wasting time. All you do is say like the Princess in the fairytale: "No good- next?" And how many designers have already used hours on designs to plase you. Some of which don't even get a very advanced critique... Please respect peoples hard word (yes, really hard work even though it doesn't really seem like you think so...!) and give the the feedback they deserve to try and accomodate your idea of the perfect design. I-personaly- would like to alter my design in any way you wish- but I get the feeling, that you will never be satisfied? What do you think about this posulate? I mean no harm. Just trying to get some more specific design-guidelines... I hope you understand?
ok.....yes...i agree that not even myself is 100% certain as to what exactly i am wanting in this city portal design......i do like cottonstellas the best so far.....katesrobyn most recent entry above is ok as well....but not liking the content area....and would want 1 sidebar on each side......problem is....i figured i would be able to see some creative designs.....a few of them...not just 5 or 6.....and from there be able to say....yeah that's what i am wanting...and be able to build it further from there....you guys are the designers....not me....to be able to say these are all the things i want...exactly to a t.....then i wouldnt need to see any samples...lol...i would just hire a designer and get it coded.......hope this makes sense......
"...not just 5 or 6....." there are a lot of guys who post such contests and would be happy getting 5 or 6 Templatedesigns. In your case it is the best to hire a designer i guess. Besides: What do you expect for $100? 20 Designs and you can choose? You must really think that we need 10minutes for such a template... ...
fenzo......nobody twisted your arm to enter this contest....... thanks for your efforts.... and did u not see this ex. site (with description) -POST #18...... that i posted a while ago???? so don't tell me i haven't given some parameters to work with......and your design is just plain hideous!
katesrobyn did it exactly like your example site and the only thing you said is: looks well but bla bla... You have given parameters but i think that's not really that what you are looking for. Maybe you should sit back a couple of hours and think about the design you want to explain it better and start a new contest instead of posting a contest, letting waste some creative heads their time and to say then that my design is hideous or something.
Keep it clean guys! Tony Floyd- what you want: two sidebars with space for ads right? bluish colors? An d actualy I don't really think you want it that creative...? Anyway- I think you should respect the designers and their time spend on you and your project, and pronounce a winner. I don't think this thread should continue... There is a bad carma about it...
Tonyfloyd: u want 1 added side bar at the left?.... anything else to win this?...'coz the site sample u gave hasn't have it.... and I have waited ur reply...since I posted my latest design.... but ur busy arguing, instead of giving feedback.
yes...2 sidebars...one on each side......bluish colors...yes.....i would like to see some creativity input on your end.....but professional and classy....not like that wacky futuristic template by fenzo
i like the vancouver.com look...but mine to have 2 sidebars...1 on each side.......would like to see 3 column...and 4 column...also am wanting same shaded faded background as well......maybe a different lighter blue font.....
Hi.. okay.. will post your request editions; 1. >> 2 sidebars.. and into 4 columns. 2. >> shaded background 3. >> ligthter blue fonts all noted.... thanks.
Hi, tony... all done: 1. >> 2 sidebars.. and into 4 columns. 2. >> shaded background 3. >> ligthter blue fonts I add newsletter menu >>>>>>>>>> edited>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
ok....shaded background on vancouver....goes from blue to white...with white nav bar...can u do this on your sample?....i dont care about what u put in sidebars.....newsletters...etc....i will finalize those when template is designed properly...right now u are putting whatever in there as a placeholder......what every one fails to realize is that all cities are the the same.....i am not building a template for a city such as NYC, LA, or Chicago...ok?...these city portal templates would look a lot different than a city portal for Killeen, texas???...dont u think???....ok...so this is where i am going...and why the template needs to look right.....i am wanting a clean look...not too busy...i will not be having many different tabs like u would have for NYC. LA..etc.....not all cities have 20 hotels....200 restaurants......theaters....sports arenas....city tours...etc....
umm..not quite.....background looks nothing like the site i mentioned...vancouver...your blue runs too far down....your nav bar is on white background...not blue background.....take a look again at vancouver...and look at yours...and please fix if possible.....also I would like to see 3 column template...as in vancouver......thanks
