Graphic Design Contests

**northtrex** · 02-17-2005, 01:14 AM

Hello,

Here is the contest #3 -- $40 to the winner : I need a website similar to xdrive.com but more simple. This website will have 3 pages only, the main page, a contact us page and a get more informations page. (We are starting a free disk space service).

I would like a website similar to xdrive.com. In another contest on this forum I ask for a banner this banner will go in the middle of your design. I like blue colors. I will post another contest in a few minutes for a logo that will go in the left corner (about the same size than the xdrive logo).

Here is a modification of xdrive's website I did to show you what I'm looking for. http://www.northtrex.com/projet.jpg

If your design is coded in html you have a big advantage. I only ask you to build the first page.

Deadline 48 hours from now.

Good luck!

just a quick question....

why not just use css template?

there are many out there....

plus $ 40 for a custom template seems a bit low imo...

yeah i would say 40 bucks is extremely low unless they want a 40 dollar quality template. i must say that xdrive site would be quite simple to build.

True, only $40 for a coded website is not very motivational. But I think the biggest thing that turns me off is the short amount of time to do it. Do you really want a half-*** job? While Xdrive is simple, I don't like the idea of just copying people so I would probably put thought behind my work.

You are right! $40 was too little. dbay I did what you told me and I'm working with a css template now : http://www.clickngrab.com

So let's forget about this contest and here is my suggestion. You can post modification of my template here on the forum with th price requested, if I use your work I pay you. Is it fair ? I'm waiting for your idea. Please don't come with $100 modifications

Have a nice day!

martian nice try! Since I though people was not interested in this contest I gave it a try : http://www.clickngrab.com

What I need now is a Logo, and PSD button similar to the green one but in blue color... If you can do something for me let me know I'll pay you.

Have a nice day!

The three buttons:

**northtrex** · 02-17-2005, 11:24 PM

LGR very nice! 2 points : does the text font fit with the website ?

I think there is a litle bit to more light in the middle of the button. Can you adjust it to 80% of what we see now ?

We will probably take them 10$

**LGR** · 02-17-2005, 11:35 PM

Check above, northtrex.

The lighter blue is more subdued and the main text is in a more neutral font.

**northtrex** · 02-17-2005, 11:40 PM

LGR send me your paypal address via PM

Please send me the PSD file

Now we need a logo! I think we will need to pay more for a logo.

Thanks

**LGR** · 02-17-2005, 11:55 PM

This is a quick logo. I know the font isn't in keeping with the rest of the site exactly, but works well and I always think it ok to differ for the logo.
