CONTEST INFORMATION

Expectations: I expect a valid HTML or XHTML coded design. If it doesn't validate, I probably don't want it. I need a client login, news area (possibly bigger and more dominant than what I currently have; your choice), testimonial area, a place to display the more popular shared, reseller, and dedicated (soon) plans, and it must entice the viewers enough to remember the brand. I also expect the pages to be created if you are chosen. I don't want a one-page template. I want the current site implemented as best as you can on the new design.

Colors: Versions of blue and white should be the dominant colors of the site. I just love blue .

Inspiration: Okay, I'm open-minded about different styles of designs, but here is a list of the types of site designs that I'm hoping for:
http://www.dinix.com
http://www.liquidweb.com
http://www.ez-web-hosting.com

...and the majority of the designs on this template site are cool:
http://www.designmyhost.com

Notes: Anyone who knows me knows I'm extremely picky, and you probably sensed that by this request. As you probably noticed, the first three sites contained flash in them. Flash doesn't necessarily impress me. I like it, but whether you use it or not, will not guarantee you the win. Similar designs with no flash is just as good in my book. Creating a good logo could up your chances, but the design in general is most important.

People. Alot of designers like to implement people. I must say I don't think I like to see people in the design. You might pull it off, but I don't think I'd like it.

Test the site on IE and Mozilla, I don't want it to look different on them. You are free to restructure the site's pages, if you'd like.

I think I'm done with the extensive details. Designers tell me they like direction to get an idea of what to do, so there it is. Have fun and Good Luck!

Mods: PM me and I'll show you personal info

I think i will consider taking this contest as well

Followed your post at Yaxay directing me here.. so, here I am, i think I will participate in this. I have never developed a hosting design before, but I am pretty good at coding xhtml valid and efficient pages, so.. i guess this is a nice contest to start in the whole hosting layouts scene

I was going to join... but I think I'll pass now. SilverSkorpion is friggin good...

Well, I might do something later...

i'm wondering why you're so adamant about your site validating yet the example sites you like don't validate at all ....hmmm

Those sites don't care, but I do. Those are example designs, not example code. Thanks to everyone who is participating
