$400 DESIGN CONTEST @ Jokaroo!
 

$400 to the person who can design the front page of www.jokaroo.com the best. If we get less then 4 submissions, the payout will only be $300.

We are looking for a designer to do periodic work for Jokaroo.com as well. An urgent redesign of the front page is needed ASAP and thats what this contest is for. What we need done is the mid section of the front page (header and left side stays the same). This means anything from JOKAROO DAILY down to the bottom of the page.

Let me explain in more detail:
Our site focuses on Funny videos, so our front page needs to list 5 videos every day prominantly (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), plus the previous days 5 videos somewhere below. We would also like to have a space each day to blog cool sites, gossip and or contests we will be having around Jokaroo. We also like to link about 4 top news articles for that day. All this needs to fit into the front page nicely and flow incredibly smooth.

It is imperative that you have a Paypal account, because this is how we will pay you. Contest ends Tuesday, September 27th at 11:59PM EST.

Please post a links to the designs in here. May the best designer win!

A search box must be integrated as well.

humm another contest ....

Ill pass

Goodluck

Why do they end up bad?

some of the designer on gfy are tired on such contest ...

What? It can't take more then few hours to give yourself a shot at $400. Plus, this isn't even a full page design for $400, its only a mid section of a page layout.

I'll probably take a swing at it.

Greatttt!

good luck everyone!

$400 for a front page design? :1orglaugh

No header (logo) and no side bar, so I'd say half a page.

Youd have better luck hiring a designer...i highly doubt someone will enter this.

Why? What do you recommend?

You guys are crazy if you aren't gonna do it & you're a designer. I am telling all the designers I know about it.

From what i see, you just redid exactly what we have. We were looking for a total reorganization of the midsection, which looks nothing like it does now. Notice that we feature a funny video at the top and then feature more videos lower.. its not really smooth by seperating this... pretend there is nothing there right now, and do something based on this description... completely ignore what you see on jokaroo.com now, and just make something that matches the header and left side bar.

others might not be able to join because of that. :)

In that case, we will send out a check.

Suggestion: pay via epassporte, you might have more contest participants

Never really used it, but if it's easy, I don't see a problem.

Here's another submitted design, but they didn't post it...

Now we got some selection...

In terms of the flow we were looking for, Skn_Designs, suicidemessiah, and the one I posted earlier are on the money. The rest don't really incorporate the flow that I was looking for.

Still another 24 hours left...

Right now Skn_Designs, suicidemessiah, and the one I posted from another designer are the front runners. Not sure which I like best yet.

Good to know that you like mine...thanks!

I popped it up now a bit with some neat icons and smoother colors and text...
see below...

is it just the design or we have to tweak the html and add the necesary plugs (if we won)?
