I would give some competition, but people don’t like mods to enter battles or contests when prizes are involves, figures…
haha It sounds like you really want to join in. I think I’m going to go back on what I said earlier. Since I came up with the contest, I ought to be able to set the rules, right?
** This contest will be open to EVERYONE. Mod or no mod.
I don’t think I should restrict someone for joining just because they have more experience. Morse, just because they have more experience doesn’t mean you can’t do better. People’s tastes are different. This is going to be judged by myself and 3 others in my company. So what I’m trying to say is don’t get intimidated!
Here’s what I’ll do… Just to make it interesting, I’ll give a $50 prize to the runner up! So to sum it up…
NEW RULES:
1-Any experience level is welcome to join in.
2-$50 goes to the runner-up

Sounds good =)
so ur using hte battle to get free flash done…hehe i find that kinda wrong…but if its ok i guess its ok…i just hope we dont see a trend…peopel should get paid to do jobs;)
no thanks dyms, I wish I had the skill and the time to do stuff for free, but unfortunately I have to pay bills so I’m gonna be a spectator and not compete. good luck to the rest. =)
parabol did you even read the first post in the thread. dyms is offering a prize to the winner, assumptions can be a killer…
yea, the one year free hosting sounds tempting…alas i suck at flash & PS, so i won’t embarass myself by joining 
excuse my curiosity dym, if your company is a web design compnay…why are you “outsourcing” to a forum to get an intro for a company that is supposed to be creating intro’s/web design for others? forgive me if this sounds stupid i’m a n000b
No problem. Actually the reason we aren’t creating it ourselves is because we’ve been extremely busy lately. We keep meaning to redo our company website, but something else always comes up. Therefore, we decided to have someone else create it for us.
As far as parabol and electrongeek, I’m not sure they read the new rules. There is a grand prize and a prize for the runner-up. It doesn’t matter what your skill level is.

fair enough =)
hosting sounds cool…i just hoped the the battle would be more about people with egos then business…but i guess thats the beauty of it… anyways… look forward to the submissions
!!! UPDATE !!!
We have a NEW logo!
If you are joining in on our contest, we have a new logo for you to incorporate into the design. If you have already created your design with the old logo that I previously posted, that is fine. I will not dock anybody’s work for using the old logo. But if you haven’t started yet, I would appreciate if you can use the NEW logo. You can download it here:

Hopefully this doesn’t cause problems for anybody. I apologize for the changes.

So you want a Intro, Buttons, and Banner all done in flash. So basicly just build a whole site in flash? If we are the winner is there any promise of future contract work? After the first free year how much does the hosting cost?
Hi,
I’m sorry if this sounds rude but I make a living doing the kind of stuff dyms is asking for and I think he’s being very cheeky. That costs a lot (A LOT) of money in the real world.
This won’t benefit either the winner or the pros that have it hard enough to find projects.
I’m sorry if I’m causing trouble but I thought I had to say it (we all like freebies, but at what or who’s expense?)
Cheers

well… no promises or anything… but maybe ill post an entry… i have no nomework this weekend (yes!!) so maybe ill start somthin… what is everything needed exactly? intro, and possibly a revamp of the site? im trying to improve my flash skills so maybe this will be good practice… and i could use the prize money… or maybe take up hosting a site (if i win of course which is really unlikely) but i might try anyway… so post up everything needed… cuz all ive seen is do what you want… but what is needed?? lemme know please
Okay, well first of all, this contest is open for anybody who wants to join. If we wanted to pay a professional web development company to create an extravegant website, then we would have done that, or created one ourselves. We are looking for talented up-and-coming designers who would like a chance to shine. Unfortunately, I can not guarantee that I will offer our position to the winner, but we are looking to hire a developer for contract work, and I think this would be the best way to see what you can do.
Here are the requirements:
- Flash intro page. Must have our logo incorporated into it in someway. The logo CAN be slightly modified.
- Main page, animated top banner/header. This should be done in Flash.
That is all that is required. The animated navigation menu is not necessary, although it might help the overall feel of the main page. And once again, if you normally charge an arm and a leg for your website designs, and don’t see the benefits of joining the contest - by all means, don’t join. This isn’t for everybody. But for those of you who wouldn’t mind making some money, or getting a year of hosting, we look forward to seeing your work.
PS-To see the rates of what the hosting fees will be after the year is over, you can find them here:

morse,
Looks good. But actually I think there may have been a misunderstanding. I do not want the CURRENT website redone. We have created a layout, found here:
And that is the actual layout that needs to be fixed-up. Add some flash to it, etc. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
