In the finals as it stands now at this moment in our discussions.

Hamlet, doornx, MR2, ella, akiraSS, $hurik

Still debating as you can imagine and getting some more independent opinions outside the board.

On a couple designs, we like combinations of 2 designers, where certain components from one would compliment another.

I'll update as soon as we get the other independent feedback.

Also, can everyone who designed in this thread e-mail me your rates for design work on a part and full time basis working remotely for Men.com.

:smokin

damn...

o well

Still opportunities for work within the site. Everyone send me there rates even if you aren't in the finals.

Not being in the finals doesn't mean you're not a great designer.

Good job guys. Nice work. Great Contest KRL

damn i get the feeling i should have had 10 entries to be a contender, lol

[jk]





:winkwink:

hm is this the finals? i wasn't in the first set you posted earlier.

he did say they were still deciding, and he was waiting on some outside opinions.

i wanna make a note, my flash looks rushed, cause it was, lol. i can make it look a lot more smooth n' flow better. :)

Your design had enough positive comments to bring you in to the finals.

congrates to the winners. since i'm no pro designer i don't have any rates i could send you KRL and i also doubt if you need me at all when I see all these cool headers from the other contenders.

good job everyone.

on to the next contest (well, i gotta win at least once dammit!) :1orglaugh

maybe make a new thread for the opinions. :2 cents:

http://www.mr2creationz.com/temp/men.com/

this one i like the best, it looks good for my eyes ;)

Well obviously my graphical identity dosen´t match what your looking for - great contests, congratz to whoever wins.

Since i can´t pick my own :D - this one in my mind is by far the best one:

- Great work :thumbsup

I liked all of Galleryseek's (Except for the guy sniffing his pits)
and this one...
http://www.madskills.nu/men/2.html

First Place- http://www.madskills.nu/men/2.html & the 4.html
Second Place- http://www.mr2creationz.com/temp/men.com/03/
Third Place- http://www.visualecstasy.com/clients/men/main.html (although I'd have the transitioning images where that guy is & would have men.com written straight instead of backwards in that reflection)

This beast reminds me of OnlineEntertainmentCard.

Whoa! and it's still on-going! :) very tight contest. Good luck to us`all! Thanks TommyM, glafkos, BluMedia and Sarma for making me on your top list. :winkwink:

KRL,

As fuckfind said, porn design and mainstream design are 2 different things. Would be wise to get some more opinions from outside if possible.

Another thing i want to address is the size, with 1.9mil visitors a 200kb header wouldn't be a right pick

Well...good luck, and congrats to all contestants.
Thanks fizzig, trixxxia,glafkos & blumedia for voting for me :thumbsup

I agree. DEFEINITELY go to a mainstream board or something and get opinions from there as well.
