If you'll keep this open for at least 6 weeks I might give this a shot, as I dont have the time right now. :)

Do we have to code the layout we submit?
Absolutely not, I'm a competent coder and can code the layout myself.

Can we enter more than one layout?

it shouldn't be blank, but it shouldn't be packed with stuff either, simplistic means under 5 images and a great content layout :P

a logo isn't required at all, doing a layout without one isn't a problem... and I offer advice to all entrants to help them improve their entries as opposed to accepting them 'as is' :P
