    • Domain is "SeviyorSevmiyor [dot] com" (It means nearly "love or not" - a small fortune game about love - it's Turkish)
    • Site will be a dating site
    • Web 2ish or nearly web2ish style
    • This little fortune game about love (our concept) is played with a daisy. So logo should include a sweet daisy (web2ish) One leaf of daisy should seen as cutted. The game is turn based, you cut one leaf and say "love" and cut again and say "not love" and than you'll find if he/she loves you or not (I know it's funny but I'm trying to explain concept of our domain name and logo). So as a result; the daisy and one leaf seen as cutted. A daisy may be a half. I'll try to develop my ideas when I start to see your works.
    • At least one web2ish button (we'll change it's label and use same button design in many forms).
    • You can use sample stock images into design, do not use too much stock images (only 1 is enough I think)
    • You are the designer, I'm the programmer. You know better than me how to use colors and brush :) So I don't have an idea about colors used into design. We can discuss it when see your works...
    • I really like Trebuchet MS font (Did I spell names right?) It's not must.
    • Use white background, be clean.
    • Please be unique...
    • Use simple login part (Username, Password boxes and Login button - Use: "Kullanici Adi" instead of "Username", "Sifre" instead of "Password" and "Giris" instead of Login texts/labels) [These are Turkish]
    • Use "Sign Up Now!" button but use "Simdi Kayit Ol!" label.
    • There may be a basic search. (I'm a "man/woman", seeking "man/woman", age range and city -> search button).
    Technical

    • Watermark your work
    • No CSS or HTML code needed
    • PSD should be provided at least and used font's names (or TTF files if possible).

    Other

    • I'm a bit difficult person, I'll pay more than if I really like your design/style. :eek: (Hint: it will be not much than $50 :D)
    • Sorry for my English, I can't speak very well. Do not hesitate to ask me your questions. I'll try to explain again and again and try my best.
    • Please do not include image directly into your post. Only send image url.
    • Payment will be via PayPal.
    • As generally, there will be only 1 winner.
    • I reserve not to like your work (Reference: check 1st part of "Other" part)
    • Don't angry me if I don't like your work, I always respect your hard work, but everyone has a different taste.

    Many thanks and good luck.

    I think the reason why there haven't been participants was even though there is a large sum of money being rewarded, all the restrictions seem very intimidating and some people don't want to be spending time to create something that can just be ultimately rejected due to the restrictions.

    Also, it's the fact that it's very hard to follow the non-english'ness as many people don't want to get confused or mess something up then have to revise over and over.

    Along with this, the prize money noted at the bottom of the message does not match the one that was in the title. 150$ vs Max of 50$ is a huge difference.

    That's what I think is going on.

    $50 was a plus. So sum is $150 + $50 = $200

    Well, ok I'm going to close the contest. Let me know if someone want to do this job directly or I'm going to find a freelancer from somewhere else.

    Mods pease close this thread. Thx.
