Site Design Contest $50

Ok, i created something myself, but it looks like it is from the 80's

My site: Free Online Image Editor

The whole idea speaks for itself i would say

Not sure what i like myself though. When a user enters the site and he is busy with working on his images, it should just be a nice and calm view.

That's why i choosen myself for the soft yellow colours.
But also it should look modern and smooth (especially cause it is an Image Editor Site ).

What i need:
1) Just a whole layout which i can use through-out the site.
2) A new DropDown Menu.
3) New buttons for on the editor.
4) New Editor layout.

Contest ending on 16th may.

I would like to offer more, but it is a non-commercial site, and it only costs me money to host it....

I really hope something good comes out.

Another thing: The space is not optimal used. This big orange "header" takes way to much space which is good for nothing. Plus the 'horizontal' lines in that orange part makes it a bit crowded.

Sorry if i sound "harsh", i know how much time those things cost to make....

@ Jaclyn,

It still looks to "old-fashioned".
I think it should have some 3-D effects in it to.
And buttons who look like buttons, and not the "flat" pictures i made.
The buttons should have mouse-over and onClick images too.

I think the positioning of the adds and editor are "ok" as the way i have them now.

You can also play around with the logo, i had no ideas at that time either to create a nice logo.

And indeed i just need lay-out, and buttons and mouse-over etc.. (you can also play around with the Font). The technical parts with links etc i will do myself.

@FutileSoul

The link does not work


And i'll try to be more specific.
I want to keep the "editor" feeling (i think).
Unless you really have another cool idea off-course which i did not think of yet.



(See also a bit extra fields with certain options in the editor, like when uploading a picture and then press the "T"ext button. There are fields appearing)

As a logo i thought to use something like:

But then with different text. I asked DRP if he could create something for me like that.

The editor part, should be more visible as an editor.
(So menu on top, as what u have. under that (new) toolbar buttons, then the workfield and below that a "statusbar". (like it has it already now, but it just looks like ****..). So you get the impression you really work with an editor.

As requested I have removed all the sample files from there,
I just wanted to give an idea of how it might look after all was in place.
Here's a screenshot :

@ Resonant,

Nice soft blue, but the site looks too much like it is now... (it actually is the same except for the logo, the color and menu-bar color and font.

You did a nicer job then what i made, but it is not what i am searching for.
(btw, can you remove the site from there, i don't want to get in trouble with Google Adsense, cause it is against their policies to show adds on a relocation like that )

@Jaclyn05
hmm, i advise you to read the book named "GUI Bloopers". You can learn a lot from that book, about do's and dont's in Graphical User Interfaces.
I appreciate it that you are trying it. I know it is not easy...

Hi DRP,

It looks more refreshing.

Are you expecting coding etc. to be done as part of the contest, or does the $50 prize only cover the graphic work?
