(Ex. Wedding, Anniversary, Birthday, Hard to Buy For, Etc.) Example Pages; Wedding Anniversay Hard to Buy For Remembrance Baby Shower If you have any questions please feel free to PM me, but I prefer that you post in the thread in case another member has the same question.

I've had a few PM's regarding whether or not the prize includes coding or not? The landing page does not require coding, but I am willing to throw in an additional $30.00 if you can also provide a .cfm or .html document with an external .CSS stlyle sheet. Thank you for your questions and I look forward to seeing the first subbmisions!
In the spirit of some great designs and good old fashioned fun, I’d like to create a mini contest within this contest. The first 5 designers to submit their work will compete with each other for an additional $20.00 prize and your work will still be considered for the grand prize. That brings the potential prize value of the contest up to $150.00. Best of luck!
Hi, I'm very interested in working on this contest. I happen to be a little confused though. I'm not sure what you want changed, from what I understand you want us to keep your header and navigation and background color. So all thats left is to design an optin box and a banner? Please if you could give me some more information that would be great.
Sorry about the confusion. Basically you hit the nail on the head. Just a layout with a nice banner and a good pre-sale that gets the message across. The whole point of the page is to get someone interested in doing a search to see if their day is available. Basically everything below the nav bar is your working area. I'm really open to anything. If I could describe what i'm looking for in one word it would be "Classy".
Winterrose_Black- I love the design of the banner, but you did not follow the guidelines. We are looking for someone to completely redesign the layout. You used the same layout that we currently have, except you replaced the banner. I hope this helps
o okey.. i was bit confused of the requirement.. so made a try.. so you want the entire page with a different design except the side navigation bars and header right??? if so i will give you a revised layout.. but i need the exact dimension of the layout so that it would be easy for me..
Np. The maximum width is 968px which is slightly larger than the current header. The height can be as short or long as needed to convert the visitor into a paying customer I may be using improper nomenclature, but when i refer to header I mean; Header = Logo + Navigation bar (Home, About Us, Etc.)
sorry.. 1 more doubt.. just wanted to be more clear.. how about the side block .. ie the Customize Your Profile and package block that is in the left side.. should this be changed or kept as it is??? And do i need to add the paragraph on " Gift Buying " with my own words???
Yeah that needs to be redesigned also. Basically everything below the Header is your Playground Hope that clarifies your question.
Ohh. the "Gift Buying" is just the type of customers that will be landing on the page. The themes are Anniversary, Wedding, Hard to Buy for, etc. You only need to design one theme. the winner of the contest will be invited to redesign the rest of the themes. So I guess you could say this contest is a paid job interview lol.
I've recieved 2 entries so far.... 3 more and I will post them on the thread and award the first winner for the speedy entry contest and then we'll move onto the real contest!! Winterrose_black - I like your entry, especially how you did the background. I think if you put everything in some sort of container and worked alittle bit more on the search area your entry will have a better chance. Hope this helps!!
Jaszczomp - Great Entry! I really, really like how you did the banner, great use of the space! The search area is almost there and the containers on the left need some work, but you've got a contender on your hands
I just PM'd you my entry. Feedback please. So after you get to 5 entries you're going to give out a 20$ prize for the winner of the **Speedy Contest** portion of the contest and then our entries are still in it for the Main $130.00 prize?
Yeah, there's 2 entries so far and your's will make it 3. Remember you can enter as many times as you like.
Winterrose_Black - Sorry for the delay. The landing page look alot better, but the entry by Jaszczompinho is currently on the top of my list. I would try going another route with your entry. As soon there are 2 more entries I will post the winning idea for the speedy entry portion of the contest and then the real contest will begin. Hope this helps
