[Project Complete] BWB Consulting new website - $300

[winch2266]

(Admin code added by Palmer - 536898813)

Hi all, we are really pleased with the work you guys have done for others and our logo.

We are a new IT consultancy partnership / practice called
Brown, Winchcombe and Burke based in the UK. Our domain name will be bwbconsult.com and we require a completely new website.

Our logo is attached and you will see that it uses the letters BWB. However we want it to be clear on our website that we are known as Brown, Winchcombe and Burke, although we appreciate that the logo and particularly the stamp part has a strong look and could be utilised in the design of the pages.

We are all professional chaps with 20 years experience and are in our late thirties or early forties providing strategic consultancy and project management to board level.

We require a website that is professional and polished. Something that would show our experience, expertise and maturity.

I guess we would be more likened to a legal partnership / practice or a high end management consultancy company rather than an IT company and therefore the design needs to reflect this and does not need to have a technology bearing. We believe our logo gives this impression.

The intended audience for our website will be senior management and board level directors.

Psychology?: The site needs to look like a business consultancy and it must be immediately clear to our audience that this is a professional outfit who provide management consultancy services specifically in IT.
IT reviews

Aliska

[winch2266]

Hi please find attached the logo as requested.

Thanks. :)

[Lori]

Thank you!

[winch2266]

On the font for the name, I prefer the second option which is bolder. As far as the design goes I like it but I will give you more feedback as soon as possible. Many thanks.

[Aliska]

[Squad]

Hello i would like to enter. Would you consider the idea to take couple of pics with you on a white background and send them over? (if you like the idea of having you on the home page)
Until then i work on somehting, anyway, the problem is that i don't have so many resources. Thanks.

[winch2266]

Hi, I think we would like pictures on the partners page but not on the homepage. Can you just use standard people pictures for now. Cheers. :cool:

[KiT10]

Hi!
Here's my entry :)...

[Aliska]

Hello, Winch!
I'd like to know if my design is proper for you or not. Cause if not I'll start my next version not to waste the time. I have lots of ideas:)

Thanks,
Aliska

[Luc]

I thought this contest was over I didn't see it. :/ I'll post my entry shortly.

[Luc]

Here's my entry.

[Aliska]

Hello.
And my new version. Waiting for your comments

[KiT10]

Here are some slight changes to my initial entry. :)

[Anne]

Here are two other versions of my design.

#1

[Anne]

#2

[Anne]

Any feedback on the latest submissions?

Anne

[winch2266]

Hi KiT, thanks for the revision. I would like the Brown, Winchcombe and Burke to stand out a little more. If you look at Anne's submission the name catches the eye more. Also the tabs at the top are not the same in size particularly the Home Tab. Let me know if I have not been clear enough. All the best.

[winch2266]

Hi Anne and thanks for your revisions. We particularly like the last one and the pictures are much more to our taste. I am awaiting one more submission from another designer and we shall make our decision within the next few days.

[dziner]

Hi, I was just wondering if there was any feedback for me?? Unless I missed it.

[Aliska]

And what about feedback for my design?

[winch2266]

Hi Aliska. We liked your latest design but felt that some of the others were stronger. Many thanks for your efforts.

[winch2266]

Hi dznier and apologies for my late response. We liked your design and felt it captured what we set out to achieve. It is on our short list and we shall be making a decision in the next few days.

[winch2266]

Hi Luc, again we thought your design was stylish but on this occasion did not fully meet our requirements. Many thanks for your effort.

[KiT10]

Hi :)

Here are the revisions you asked. Let me know if you need anything more.

[winch2266]

Hello we have finally made our decision and would like to award the prize to Dziner (Shelly). I would like to thank all designers for taking part. Your work was excellent .

[Anne]

CONGRATULATION Shelly

[dziner]

Thank you !
Just let me know if any changes need to be made before I send the files.

Thanks again,
Shelly

[dziner]

Hi, I was just wondering if there was anything additional you needed done to the design so that we could wrap this up?

Hi Shelly, I am really sorry about the delay in getting back to you but things have been hectic plus I have been away on business and holidays. We do have some revisions which i will document today, one i have collected the others views. Thanks for your patience.

[winch2266]

Shelly, we only have a few mods.
The menu at the top left could be tighter as it takes up a lot of screen space and when viewed in 1024 x 768 you loose the bottom text. Also can you give us an idea of what a secondary page would be like please.
Thats it, thanks.

[winch2266]

Sorry Shelly, one last thing. Could you possibly show us the page with a different graphic? maybe something that does not have any people in, but i will leave it up to you.

Cheers.

[dziner]

Below are links to the original layout, the layout w/ a new picture and an interior layout possibility. Just let me know of anything further.
Thanks!
Shelly

Revised Layout (http://www.yencreative.com/bwb/web1B.htm)

Interior Layout (http://www.yencreative.com/bwb/web1B-int.htm)

[winch2266]

Shelly, thanks. We prefer the original photo for the main page but like the size on the new one as it fits better with 1024 resolution. The interior page is good as well, but I would like to move the botton bar up as it is half off screen at 1024 res and therefore needs scolling down. Will all the interior pages have different images at the top, is so can we see them. I am sure you will be glad to know that will be all the revisions we have. Many thanks.

[dziner]

Thank you for your reply and I will have your revisions done today. As far as the different pictures on the interior pages.. this is up to you. Also, I went back and read your original description and I don't think it had the deliverables listed. Do you need the only the layered graphics (.psd or .png) files or do you need the html as well?

Thanks!
Shelly

[dziner]

I forgot to mention one thing.. you said you would like to move the bottom bar up on the interior page... this will really depend on the length of the page your actual content takes up. Which if you wanted the html done, I will keep the spacing of the text lines and the size of the font to the minimum so that your content take up as little length as possible.

Thanks !

[dziner]

Ok, when making the revisions, I went ahead and sliced everything up and made the html pages for home and about us. :) The links are posted below, just let me know about the different pictures on each page.

HOME PAGE (http://www.yencreative.com/bwb/bwb_final/)

ABOUT US (http://www.yencreative.com/bwb/bwb_final/about.htm)

Thanks!

[winch2266]

Hi Shelly, yes we require the HTML as we shall add the content via Dreamweaver. Thanks for the revisions. As for the images, same sort as the briefcase on the About Us page would be cool. On the bar thing, I completely understand about the content size and I now feel a bit foolish :). Cheers.

[dziner]

Below are the graphics for the partners, services, and contact us pages. I also went ahead and created the html for these pages as well. As soon as you approve of the images I will zip up the files and send them your way. Thanks!

Nice work Shelly. The images are great. So all in all I think we are finished. I would like to thank you for your quick responses and excellent work. Thanks to everyone at Design Outpost for their contributions.

[dziner]

Great! Below is the link to the zip file containing the html pages, CSS and images. Let me know of anything else you made need. Thank you!
