    Hey Guys!

    It's oneawesomeguy again with one of my 48 hour contests!

    Note: Any entries submitted within the next day will get feedback from me before the deadline. All others will get feedback after the contest is over.

    ABOUT ME:
    I have been hosting contests here on DP for almost two years. I have hosted dozens of contests. I always comment on every design, announce a winner, and I always pay.
    Check out my post history: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/search.php?do=finduser&u=160715&starteronly=1
    Check out my iTrader: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/itrader.php?u=160715

    WEBSITE DETAILS:
    -Logo: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2385260/logo.zip
    -Website should be simple and not overly-complex
    -Similar to the design of the website in my signature: makes the company look small, but professional
    -Black background
    -Pages (for menu): About Us, Solutions, Services & Support, Our Customers, Our Partners

    FEATURES ON WEBSITE:
    (only for your reference when designing...)
    Final website will be in English, Chinese, and Malay
    Search: no
    Blog: no
    News feed: no

    CONTEST DETAILS:
    1. Submit web design entries for 48 hours from the time stamp on this post. Revisions on entries can be made after the 48 hours are up.
    2. To be fair: No entries via PM and no late entries, please.
    3. Once 48 hours is up, I will review all designs thoroughly and give my thoughts/opinions on every single design. This usually takes me 2-3 days (not including weekends).
    4. Winner provides .PSD (or .XCF for GIMP users) file and fonts used. I will send $100 via PayPal and give honest iTrader.

    RULES:
    By submitting an entry, you agree to the following:
    1. You must create the designs yourself. No templates. You must not use any images you do not have the right to use.
    2. Only the winner agrees to transfer me rights to that design. I will not use any of the other designs and feel free to remove them from this thread once the contest is over.
    3. You are free to put in watermarks to protect your work but make the watermark say "Sample" or put a big X accross the whole design.
    4. By accepting the winnings, you agree to give me full rights to your design and you agree that you will not use this design for anything else.

    The 48 hour deadline will be enforced as long as there are at least five entries. One person can submit as many entries as he or she wants.

    SUGGESTIONS:
    1. For images, check out iStockPhoto or similar sites and use their free comps. Only pay for the images if you win (Note: No istockphoto logos on the winning design sent to me).
    2. For colour combinations, check out colourlovers.com--an awesome website!
    3. Do not do revisions on every little thing I mention. Seriously. :) If I really want something done, I'll ask you. No need to waste time.

    Thanks, good luck, and have fun!

    -Christopher

    hello..

    Is this guaranteed that you'll choose a winner? or you'll deny the contest if you haven't found any one going nice?

    Hows something like this?
    [​IMG]
    (picture does have animation, view for at least 6 seconds to see full transition)
    Matches logo color scheme. Very simple. Has the language options at the top.
    Anything can be changed as requested. Thank you :)

    @kolgames: I like the cleanliness of your design and the transitions! I was looking for a darker design perhaps with a black background.

    @jtoms: Thanks for your remarks! I was just about to invite you too. :)

    PM Question from Kim: Should the content on the site also be like the page in your sig? (not exact question)
    Answer: No, please use filler text in the design.

    [​IMG]

    i realize the location text is blurry, if I would win I would retype all 3 sets and animate it like in my first entry if you wanted.

    @JR: (Didn't see your post earlier...) Thanks. I am self-proclaimed famous lol... I really hope to see an entry from you. I haven't seen one in a while :)

    @kolgames: I like your overall design. Some remarks: the black is too dark and makes it hard to read the text. I think it makes the website seem less like the website of a real company. The text is a little bit big. The logo and address next to it look good in their positions. I also like the language switcher in the top right. Nice job.

    Here is my entry. I hope I didn't do too much, but I like how it came out. I couldn't decide if I liked the navigation over or under the header, so I'm showing you both so you can decide if you choose my design.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Here are some designs from us which are just mock ups, but we can make the changes and fixes to the ones you like best:

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    The images and some of the elements can be replaced or changed depending on needs and preferences. Let me know if we won or some changes are needed.

    Also we could place some images of flags that will stand for the languages/countries of your site or could write somewhere in the design the names of the languages/countries.
