Contest expires 3/20

What we want
New website hosting/marketing company neds its main page and support main page designed

What you get:
$200us cash (via paypal)
Free domain reg (one year)
Free hosting (one year)

About what we need:

We need for our main page to use the colors lime green,Navy blue, and white,. Should give the impression that we are a large international corp since we have employees in London and over here in the USA. Also give the impression that we are "The place people go to get hosted" (our slogon) Page must have an areaor box for clients to search a domain name we have a whois script. Also must have a company news box, and some dynamic scrolling or something text which will be our comments from our current clients. On the page must be listed some basic info about our 5 hosting plans. Buttons would be: Home, About us, Contact us, Order, Support, Website design not in that order though.
Also we will have some tect in the middle or where ever on the page about our company or some buzz words.
We would like images of groups of people huddled around a computer or people "hanging out" ya know to create the felling of this is a place people go to you get the idea.

Our support page will be the same color scheme but have a box that will list the status of our different servers weather they are live or dead. then have another box or area that will just have some network news about any planned server upgrades or mantanence. On the support page will also be links to our support docs, policies, message boards and support ticket system

SITES MUST BE UNIQUE AND ORIGINAL NO STEALING OTHERS SITES. Site should have some embeded flash and create a proffesional image. Oh also should say some where sites created/live in 15 min or less we also use cpanel 4 so have a image that would be a link to demo it But I guess I would gie you that if you win

Here are some sites I like
www.pixelbrick.com I know I can not get a site this great
www.rockethost.com
www.addr.com
http://www.apollohosting.com/

Hello just wondering if anyone else is interested in this offer?

I would make it $250 and the free domain name and hosting for one year.
I think this is a generous offer.

I will give it shot, but for $250 you wont get anything near pixelbrick or addr.com, that requires a lot more money :)

Ok I am located in USA my partner is located in London.

If the winning designer is outside of the USA they will get $250 usa sorry.

Our company name is Yourwebspot.com
We want to stick with using lime green,Navy blue and white we do not have any logo at least not yet. $250 it actually the top I can go to unless the site design is really great and the owner is willing to work out some type of payment paln or something

I know I can not get a site as good as pixelbrick.com but was hoping to get a design similar as far as their navigation. I would like a navigation bar like that with the botton effects or the buttons to the left. I just want a site that looks different then what every single other person on this site has all their sites look the same even the colors of most of the sites are the same no offense I am NOT saying anyones sites look bad.

Thanks to all who have entered so far

Why does the winner get $250 if he is outside USA? and a winner from the USA $200?
Do I see something wrong?
