Aalto: The gator cooking is really a nice touch. The 'end' images are lacking though. The whole thing is too redish. Looks like fire. V99: Thanks for the compliment. I can't say that I know what I'm looking for, but I can usually say what I don't like Your latest version is definitely headed in the right direction. I'm not very found of reflections though. Also, if you do make changes, it'd be really cool to see how it looks with the other page content (like some of the posters have done).
Cameljourney: Don't hate me Version1 looks nice, but I prefer the text and two gators you used in your previous submissions ..
No problem, . In fact, it's really nice to get a lot of feedback from you. Another two entries from me, use the same text as the earlier submission + only 2 gators .
Cameljourney: Those are really looking polished. Can't critique them yugo: I really like the right image and the photo idea is cool too. The 'photos' themselves would have to be more appropriate. Things like fried fish, jambalaya, and just about any other Cajun dish (if you know what those are) would be more appropriate. I don't like the left most image with fire. The text also needs some spicing up. Overall very good concepts but needs a good bit of polishing. There's about 24 hours left in the competition. Still plenty of time for others to come in. Thanks to all of those who have participated.
okey... photo no: 1 is "bowl of dirty rice" ... Dirty rice is: a delicious traditional Cajun rice dish which is made dirty from the brown color of chicken liver and gizzards. It is prepared with sausage (or ground pork/beef), bell peppers, celery, and onion and garnished with parsley. Dirty rice is excellent as a main course, a side dish, or used as a poultry stuffing. photo no: 2 is " Cajun Grilled Chicken"... Cajun chicken with buttered asparagus. and maybe i will remove the left image under the maintext.
dulcenegosyante: Nice and clean. Thanks! Yugo: I like the latest much better. Still think the chicken one should be replaced with fried fish though.

Winner is v99! Thanks to all for their time and effort! v99, please check your PM for payment arrangements and digital deliverables.
