    I need a really good template for a new site called Gifts4Points.com. Here's the logo we recently got.

    [​IMG]


    - Main page must be centered with space on the left and right sides (like rewards1.com or points2shop.com)
    - Color background that works with the logo
    - Section for a chatbox on the left side (not in background part)
    - Logo top left
    - Stats section top right
    Points:
    Cash:
    Referrals:
    - Also include Log out and Log in links in the stats box
    - Make the navigation bar below the logo and it goes across the page

    Important! The site gives away items like microsoft points, wii points, xbox live codes, and gaming related items. If you work those into the template that would be great

    Three images should display on the homepage that include this text.
    1. Sign up and confirm you email
    2. Complete free offers for points
    3. Redeem your points for great prizes

    Also, something like this would be nice, "Confirm your email then complete 1 offer and you will earn 250 bonus points!"

    Navbar Pages - in this order please
    - Home
    - Offers
    - Redeem
    - Contests
    - Forums
    - Account
    - Inbox
    - Help

    You can choose the colors just make it match the logo. Preferably a green and blue color scheme. All we need is the PSD files no html coding necessary.
    This is a 3 day contest
    Winner gets $100 via PayPal

    Its kinda hard making the colours "match the logo" since it's full of colours, any specific colours youd like.

    Forgot to tell you guys for the stats in the top right corner, can you make them like this.

    Points:

    Inside a separate box.

    @Janine

    Header is nice but could use some more color. Navbar looks good. I like the images you made for the home page.

    I feel like something is missing...can't really put my finger on it. Try adding what i said above about the stats and I'll see what it looks like.

    Maybe some more color in the background? That might help it a bit.

    @Janine

    Can you put Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and Contact Us links at the bottom of the page instead of the Home - Offers..etc

    The stats box looks amazing. Could you also include a Log In and Log Out links in the stats box?

    Header is ok, keep trying with different designs on it and maybe different colors. Logo could be a bit bigger.

    Background colors need more work, don't really like the fade out part near the bottom.

    do you have any other png files that has transparent background? i find it hard to add some colors on the banner because the logo will overlap and will look ugly. :[

    [​IMG]
    ignore the banner for the moment. ill try to figure something out. >.<

    Oh I see what you mean now, no sorry I don't have a transparent one.

    The background is good but keep trying new things with it.
    Stats bar is fantastic, looks really good.

    Almost forgot, add Forums as another page please. In between Contests and Account would work

    Don't really like the ribbon at all.

    Like I said before, keep trying new backgrounds even though the current one is pretty good. I'm just looking for something that really stands out from the others.

    That looks amazing! Great work

    Just a few things to change..
    For the 3 images, make the text this please
    1. Sign up and confirm you email
    2. Complete free offers for points
    3. Redeem your points for great prizes

    Also, take out the microsoft points and wii point images so I can see what it looks like without them.

    The Proof of Payment should be changed to Proof of Prizes. Everything else looks great though! If we don't see anything better by tomorrow afternoon then you will certainly win :D
