    Hello,

    Recently we held a contest for getting our mascot design made for our company. After the great turnout from it. We have decided to hold a contest for our Homepage design.

    I will try to provide you with the full details. As well as providing a wireframe and a copy of the mascot.

    Site Name:
    AdBrute

    Site Genre
    Advertising Network. Similar to that of AdBrite.

    Site Slogan
    Brute Strength Advertising

    What Are we looking for in the design?
    A clean web 2.0 feel. This must be a top quality professional design. It needs to be eye catching and make you want to join our network. Most of all it needs to be UNIQUE.

    Colour Scheme
    No set colour scheme. However we would like web 2.0 colours ( glossy and bright ) Some of our preferences are a clean blue on a white background.

    Logo Text
    This is up to you. I am not providing what came with the mascot. As what looks good on one design. Might not on another. So please create your own text for the logo.

    Copy of the Mascot
    I won't provide the PSD for security reasons. But I will provide it in a png. It is rather large. So you will need to scale it down. However it is a vector:
    http://www.mediafire.com/?dmjdzg2wlji
    (YOU MUST USE OUR MASCOT ( Please ) )

    WireFrame
    Here is a wireframe I drew up. Please do not use this actual image but use it as a guideline. The size of what I have drawn is not to scale as I don't know what size website designs are and such....
    http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/8096/wireframej.jpg
    This wireframe does not need to be followed. But please do something like it.

    Content
    Please just use the content of Adbrite.com This goes for links, text etc No dummy text please. Also make it so that is not hard to change.

    Prize: $250
    Payment: Via PayPal only
    Contest Length: 7 days ( 1 week ) from the time of this post.

    extra: The winning designer can choose to be able to code this ( just html coding ) for an Extra $20. ( If they are able to code it. )

    Feedback will be given to all designs. But please be a bit patient.

    Please Post all entries. Do NOT send them via PM please

    Any questions feel free to ask.

    Remember. Keep it Professional.

    I look forward to seeing everyone's entries who are going to enter :)

    Feedback for the 2 submitted designs:

    SaxDesigns.
    Absolutely love it mate. Its clean, its professional and very nice on the eyes. Just one change needed. The top logo where you have that ab image. Could you please take that out and put our mascot in there as well please?

    ( Keep a copy of that image though. If we pick your design it would make a great avatar )

    LipGut
    Nice design but not what we are looking for. It doesn't have the flow that we want. It is a bit to blocky. Also not to fond of the colour scheme. We prefer use of some lighter colours.

    Thanks

    My Entry (Click here)

    The two mascots that are located at the top are different variations of 2 positions I chose. Now of course I can move it around as you like to show you a difference, so let me know. If you need anything changed, just PM me and I will change anything you'd like around to suit your needs.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the feedback. I've made the change, click the thumbnail below...

    [​IMG]

    I've also got another version which you may prefer. Basically I added some shadowing to make the content area stand out more.

    Thanks.
