    Hey everyone. I'm starting a hosting company called Yanix and I'm really having trouble getting the site designed so I've come to you here at DP.

    I would like it in PSD format 'cause I don't want it to be too much trouble for you. =]

    Anyways, I want the colour scheme to be green or blue - depending on your personal preference. I would like the logo/header to say "Yanix Web Hosting" and then the tagline: "Quality Hosting at Quality Prices".

    It needs these links in the nav bar:
    Home - Hosting - Domains - Billing/Clients - Support - Contact

    And the rest is pretty much up to you. Have a look at these sites for some inspiration:
    So basically I want a flashy Web 2.0 style design.

    Anyways, the winning designer will receive the following:

    YanixDeluxe Web Hosting Account:
    AND a .com/.net/.org available domain of your choice!


    Contest will end when I find a suitable entry.

    I modified this design from an old design of mine that I never used. What do you think? Too dark?

    Got two questions.

    1. is there an end date (or timeframe at least)? and
    2. what do you want in the content area?

    Just one question, may i edit one of my designs i made previously or it needs to be 100% new/original?

    Also, you want us to design the logo too?

    Regards,
    JotaC

    1) I will run this contest for TWO WEEKS - starting yesterday.
    2) Lorem ipsum will do for now. I'll put some proper content in when I'm coding/designing it.

    That's fine. I don't mind as long as it looks good. =]

    And I'm not too bothered about the logo. It would be a bonus and I'd add a few more GB space/bandwidth. But if not, it doesn't matter. I can always add my own later. :)

    ok... but what type of content are you going to display in your final product? for example, many hosting companies have 3 "boxes" that display their 3 different types of hosting plans... any general ideas of what you want to display on the page?

    mr_jinsue - Really good! I like the colour scheme chosen. Nice overall idea. =]

    Migi - I like your's too! I'm not too keen on the red, though. If you could replace that with a different shade of green or black, that would be good.

    EnErGiC - Sorry, that's not the sort of thing I'm looking for. =/ Thankyou for making that one, though. :)

    Yes, I'd like the boxes please! With "Personal Package", "Premium Package" and "Business Package" (Yes, I did nick those names from PayPal. :p)

    ATTENTION! I've changed my mind about just giving the winner a prize. I will be giving the 2 runners up free lifetime hosting with 5GB space and 25GB bandwidth.

    I haven't quite finished it yet, but I made a good start, and would like some feedback to see if I am on the right track.. :)

    [​IMG]

    If there is any other types of content you would like me to include, let me know!

    all the images are from istock, and I have URL's to each of them...
    you can substitute them for your own images if you wanna.

    the content for the boxes at the bottom is from
    http://www.hostmonster.com/

    Migi - Nice design. I love it! Definately one of my favourites!

    willhaynes - I like it! Nice and Web 2.0-ey (if that's a word lol). If you could add a logo in the blank space at the top, it would be better. =]

    SecureWebDev - Excellent concept! I like the shades across the top. That's the sort of things I'm looking for.

    Harry - No, just...no. :p

    Keep up the great work, guys!
