$65 One Page Design Contest for CentralInsurance.org (Uncoded - 48 hours)

This is going to be a insurance quote site. There are several important factors that you need to include in your design:

• The Header for this design needs to be very Large, similar to OnlineCollege.cc and LifeInsuranceQuote.cc.
• In the header you need to have the following 5 categories as roll over buttons

• Please note that this image is from a competitor of mine and you cannot use the icons in your design.
• The Icons need to be much larger than what the above Image shows. Define the buttons clearly.
• The Header needs to have a professional and family oriented look.
• Beneath the header will be similar to a blog layout with a sidebar and main content area.

Below is a link to the different variations of files for the logo. (PSD, PNG, JPEG, ETC) The file has two variations of the logo one with a blue background and one with a white background. Feel free to use either one with your design.

Hi Jimmy
Thanks for the invite. I will work on a design later today.

 

@Jimmy: Best of luck with your contest, it will be interesting to see what designs come from your contest. Let me know if you have any questions. ~Paul

 

I will extend this competition if none have entered within 8 hours from now. I definitely want to give people enough time to submit their entries, but we will see what we have by morning.

 

Ok, I am going to extend this contest for another 24 hours so it will end on Saturday night, hopefully with the weekend some people will have some time to do some designs. Good luck to all!!

 

Hi there. Just thought of throwing in a design.
Feedback appreciated.

 

@jokomamamita: I like it, thanks for doing the first entry! Would you be able to make the header taller / wider to take up the whole page width wise. Is it Possible to move the family off to the right, and move buttons up below the central insurance logo, I like the icons, easy to understand what the button is for and maybe define them better box wise if you move the buttons up below the logo. Hope this gives a better idea of what I am envisioning. It is a great start though you are on the right track!!

 

Here is my entry. I have tried my best to keep it bold and unique. Hope u will like it

Feedback much appreciated.

Regards,

 

@deebong: I like it, it is the right size for when you view it full size. Can you give color or something to the buttons for the different insurance categories? Maybe white buttons and some color to the icons. Other than that I am digging it. =)

 

my #1 entry, feedback appreciated

@jharrvis: For your roll over buttons, can you make them bigger? I like the drop down too but I want to make the buttons their primary source for going to the application page. Also, can you add in a similar 1,2,3 steps like what deebong did right below the picture? Other than these it looks really good.

 

thanks for your feedback
here's an update, I hope you like it.

Hey Jimmy, just a recommendation on your rollover buttons. I would actually put them in the image instead of at the top like navigation. That way you can have top navigation (like about, contact, etc) and not have it look like a double layer of navigation. You want the roll over buttons to be the main focal point of the eye and what the user engages in. Hope this helps.

 

To All try to follow what mightybutton just suggested.
