Contest $30 Web Page redesign contest

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by dherald, Jul 14, 2010.

    I need a web page redesign. It's a simple page that displays a video.

    There are 3 main goals here:

    1. video title and voting (the + 0 - part) to be retouched so the video title is more obviously seen
    2. I want the comments to be displayed in a completely different way, somewhat like this -- but obviously with a different color scheme (please no pink!)
    [​IMG]
    3. The corners for divs should be rounded
    4. Make the design looks lighter (you can and should reimagine the footer and header)
    5. Improvise

    URL of page (use google page translate to translate it): http://bit.ly/9E151B

    Other points

    - it's a gaming website
    - it should be lighter in terms of feel
    - feel free to reimagine the whole color scheme

    You can just make a mockup for the contest and if I choose you, we can work out some tweaks. You should be able to provide a .psd.

    Good Luck!

    I'm going to enter this one :)
    Will design the player + voting + commenting and then will adjust it to colour schemes and such things.

    Please skip designing the video player itself, focus around the enclosing div to make it look sexy.

    The video player can be scaled to any size and is preferably if you make it smaller. So you could make the right>>> div a bit wider.

    Just make sure that the two column design remains.

    Good luck!

    Whoops. Made it before reading this.
    I might try again but here is what it was looking like:

    Tomorrow most probably I will edit it to fit 2 columns and mini player.

    Thanks, it looks good!

    However, the video information should be on top and you're missing the header there. Looking forward to see what your vision is!

    You are heading in the right direction. My main concern is the dark-grey squarish boxes. If you could get rid of those and/or replace them with something brighter and more roundish...

    This is a bit off. Please leave out the things that get out of the website boundaries.

    Anyone else?

    I love the layout (thanks for incorporating it). Other attendees please use it as a referrence point (the layout)

    However I am not exactly fond of the orange color. If you could drop the orange color and somehow get rid of the overall "black" colors, I think it would be perfect.

    Still I would like to see a couple of other entries.

    Okay can you tell me what colour you would like to see?
    Will the background remain black?
    Should I change the color of the menus and user thing up there?

    All the colours can be changed, but I'm not sure what you will like...

    I'm not a designer, but I like "lite" sites that don't have much heaviness. A good example is http://digg.com

    So I guess you could use that as a referrence point (mostly white-ish with some blue, green and black for text)

    If you know what changes you want just tell me and I will try to edit it.
    I was just a bit confused about what exactly you want to make with that page.
