Win A Website Competition

[Justin]

Hello.

I will be holding an excellent competition on many design forums this one included called "Win A Website Competition" as I think you can guess the winner wins a website the hosting will be provided by BigWetFish and paid for by me for 1 year (which is a total of 60$) also by winning you can win a domain name. However there are a couple of rules.

Rules
*the domain name I buy can't exceed over 30$
*Once the website is purchased and everything is set up your on your own
*You can only submit one thing once it is submitted it is added to a database and can't be modified or replaced in anyway

What you will be doing
For this competiton you will be designing a website template however it can only be made from any of the following colors (they can be combined) any type of red/blue , white/grey and black/dark grey if any other color is used you will automatically be disqualified. Any colors can be used now . All creations should be submitted to [e-mail] if there are any questions reply here

Grading Scale
When you receive your score sheet you will contain a Letter score with it , here is the scale
100% - 96% = A - Best score you can get and you have a 98% chance of winning with that score
96%-90% - B - Second best score you can receive you have a 86% chance of winning
90%-84% - C - Third best score you can receive you have a low chance of winning
84%-73% - C- - Fourth best score , Very low chance of winning
73% - 62% D - One of the worse no way you can win unless someone gets a lower score
62% - 47% - E - You still have a chance about a .6% chance but still a chance
47%-0% - F - You lose.

If you win it may be put up as a theme but if you don't send me the .psd file you don't have to worry about it as I wouldn't be able to edit it (no you don't have to send me the .psd file) it also says that I have the right to post it on my site without someone saying "I made it you can't put it on there" and your name will remain anomynous however if you lose it will be removed from the site and I can no longer put it up.

[Justin]

Also making a new rule DO NOT include your name in the template anywhere (this is to prevent bias decision from the judges they won't know who you are and you won't know who they are) howver please do include your name in the email you send me so I know who you are

[Cam]

I'll give this a shot.

[Justin]

good luck . so far i've received 5 , Don't think any is from this forum though.

[edenwax]

Sure, I'll give it a try.

[xcessive]

Can you give a brief. Perhaps a layout template or description of the content that needs to be precented.

[Mark Gray]

Sounds extremely sketchy too me so I wont be entering...

[Justin]

That's fine . but please do explain how it sounds "sketchy"

[Mark Gray]

Every part of this makes it sound like you will be taking the themes that we make and putting them on a website of your own, even if we win or lose...because you have asked us not to include our names (that doesn't really make sense to me)...sure the bias thing does make a little sense but I copyright everything I create...cant ask me not too

[Justin]

Makes sense , if you wish to copyright it than you can . Also if you don't wish to participate I need 3 other judges email me at [e-mail] with the subject "judge"

[Justin]

I have received a total of 45 submissions from 5 different coding/design forums . keep them coming !

[Cam]

I forgot about this

[Justin]

ha , you have plenty of time .

also for next years (which will be posted Christmas of 2011) will be a coding one , so maybe you coders will have a better chance
