would you ask for coding as well? and what exactly would the benefits be of having you on my msn? XD just joking lol i might give it a try or enter an old layout.

[Jamie Huskisson]

as it says in the questions at the bottom of the comp page, i don't require coding... just a layout

[Griffin]

I may give this a go, and good luck to the rest of you that have already entered.

Just a quick note:
IM NOT LOOKING FOR A GRAPHICAL LAYOUT

I'm looking for a very simple/minimalist layout, I can't stress enough - look at the sites i've put under "what im looking for", its very important you read the page thoroughly, as i'm getting alot of things that are nothing near the asked for layout

Also another note to designers - not everything has to be contained within borders Sometimes open space is alot better than closed space

Shame because you can do so many beautiful things with CSS

For people with portfolios, will they be allowed to put their design in their portfolio if it is chosen ?

[Jamie Huskisson]

This is how graphical I want it:

Notice that images don't particularly form the layout (ie just the logo/a couple of background gradient/colour blocks) and the majority of it is solid colours, no borders and any images just enhance the layout itself

[blinek]

you would please tell up what majoy links you would like on it

such as :

blog ( witch is suppose would be home )

about

porftolio / gallery

friends

etc..

[Jamie Huskisson]

there will be no "external links" as such, just advertisement block and internal links such as 'post by category', a small blurb about twod in the navigation bar...

[blinek]

ok thanks

I'll give this a go for you Jay. I'll review your layout criteria tomorrow and I will consult you via PM if I need any detailed information upon exact elements. I'll deliver you what I deem simplistic, and I hope you'll like it.

good to hear most information should be on the page as i'm constantly updating as more questions are answered, but feel free to PM me with any problems, and i look forward to seeing the design

Hey Jay

Are we aloud to use DIV's and CSS but still keep it simplistic? I would add an image here and there, but just asking if we are aloud to code it for you. if not, let me know because thats what i planned.

[Jamie Huskisson]

Coding is in no way required, but if you feel you have to then do so

[Nike]

I did. I don't like using Photoshop.

[Matteosh]

I dont have to, but i feel this would be easier in making a simple template. Plus I know that you like css .

[blinek]

Geez, donesnt anyone fully read the rules.

[Nike]

Yes?

[Jamie Huskisson]

The rules are flexible as i'm willing to reply to entrants to tell them what needs changing on the layout... I think theres been 2 entries that have followed the guidelines on first draft so far, but the rest i've worked with to improve and implement those guidelines... otherwise i'd recieve nothing i'm happy with and it just wouldn't be a layout i'm happy with at the end of the day
