$25 Proxy Site logo & template contest

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by myfrogger, Jun 27, 2007.

    I have a new proxy site that needs a logo and HTML template. I'm looking for something very unique and very creative.

    Domain: www [.] please surf [.] com
    Please avoid typing this domain or even "please surf" without spaces in this thread

    Theme & Target Market: Social networking (but do not use any trademarked names or logos, etc)

    Time length: I plan to pick the first design I really like so that could be right away or it could take a few days.

    Requirements:
    • Your own content (nothing stolen)
    • Creative but still easy to read
    • Custom image logo with coordinated template
    • No designs with an all black background
    • Placeholder for two image ads (size 336x280 and 300x330)
    • Placeholder also for a 468x60 banner would be great too if there is room.
    • Preferably no scrolling needed
    • Links to the Terms of Service and Contact page. Copyright to be included at the bottom somewhere
    • Simple web-ready HTML coded so I can add my proxy script and upload
    • PSD logo (PSD template also preferred)
    • ALL rights to template, logo, design, etc will be transferred upon payment.
    Feel free to submit the design in any stage. I will be happy to provide feedback based upon simple mockups. Please specify what type of source files (if any) will be included in the final delivery along with the web-ready HTML coded template.

    Winnings will be paid via paypal upon delivery of the full HTML coded design along with the original PSD of the logo.

    Here are a few templates that I like so you can get an idea of my taste. I do not want an exact copy of these sites nor any site that looks like them. I want a custom design with custom logo and these templates aren't set up for the advertising placeholders I want.

    http://www.sitesurf.net
    http://www.secureproxy.us
    http://www.phproxydesigns.com/preview/3/
    I prefer more of a rounded look to the 'boxy' look of the last one. It's more "web 2.0" :)

    Let me know if you all have any questions. Check my itrader for a previous contest I ran a few days ago. You'll see a post that shows I paid immediately after contest ends. I would also be interested in a link to a portfolio of previous work as I have other (higher paying) projects that need to be completed in the near future.

    EDIT: I'll also throw in an extra $10 for a total of $35 for a16x16 icon and a coordinating header graphic to go on the proxified pages. Something very short similar to this but not necessarily orange. Something designed to include a 468x60 banner would be really cool. No need to submit these two things as part of your submission unless you want to. Thanks!

    Thank you for responding. I'll try to clarify. I don't need the template fully coded...just simple HTML coded. No scripting involved at all. Even simple HTML for a proxy template is much easier than a regular website template as there isn't much involved with a proxy template (see examples).

    I've see people get logos for $7-$10 all the time and I've purchased four of them so far from members in this forum for these prices.

    I'm not expecting a $500 design here....Thanks again for responding.

    Dj-iceman,
    I have received your design and I'm not 100% sure my thoughts yet. It wasn't quite what I was expecting but I do like it. It is certainly unique which is the #1 thing that I'm seeking. After I receive another couple submissions, I'll be able to give you better feedback. Thank you very much for your time so far!

    lolage,
    Show me what you have. I don't need it coded to judge the design. I saw a couple posts in another thread that advertised template coding for $6-8 each. I could go that route if you didn't want to do that work. Thanks!
