Hey guys and gals,

I need a two page layout for an e-commerce site that sells computer components. I also will need a standard size banner that i can use to place on other sites for advertising.

Let me start by stating whats to win:

1. IBM 61.5GB Hard Drive - IDE, ATA-100, 7,200rpm, Model: IC35L060AVER07-0

2. Creative 52x CD-ROM - IDE

3. Micron 256MB PC-133 SDRAM


Ok, now this is what i need:

Info:

This must be user and admin friendly - as i am very new to this.

Site url: www.valuebasement.com (http://www.valuebasement.com)

Navigation: All the ones listed on the site now along with a FAQ link.

First page: the main page - something i can display hot items, showcase items, places to offer ads and rebates.

Second Page: Redo the customer support page to go along with the new front page.

Also: along with the layout i would need buttons for "add to cart" and "buy now" along with the buttons seen at the top of the items. Example (http://www.valuebasement.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=V&Product_Code=amdXP2000)


Rules: Once prizes are given, the copyright of the art work and graphics belongs to ValueBasement.com. You agree that you would not distribute, send or share the work with any other site, company or identity.

The layout must be original, and must not contain any copyright context.

I like work to be done in Dreamweaver - so i can update and change things very easy.
I would also like all PSD files used.


If you have anyother questions or comments please feel free to contact me.

It looks like his site sells such products :D

when exactly is the contest gonna end? coz i'm already half-way through:)

Yes, and how close are you to deciding? Any chance we could take a look at the top runners you have now? Reason being is that I would like to try for this, but if you have an outstanding layout already (and I know I can't beat it) why bother trying? ;)

he also has the contest on in another forum, www.tutorialforums.com, if this contest is placed any where else i don't know.

These are the top 3 that i have received either by email or by repling directly to the forum(s).

here's the 3rd layout.

the 2nd template looks like a taker, i like his style.

As a customer I would be more willing to explore a site with layout #1.

yeah, im leaning towards 2 :)

I think they all look great.:)
