Hi,

I need a new web site designed. Since it’s for a young artist, the budget isn’t too much, but I’m still hoping to see to contributions (out of the goodness of your designer hearts :).

Prize: $300
Deadline: 25.04.2005
Material: PSD

Please let me know in advance if you plan to make a contribution.

About the client

The client is a young metal artist who makes sculptures and items out of various metals using different techniques. His company is called “Tronnelonn”, which is an old nick name of his.


About the web site

The purpose of the web site is to promote the artist and his recent projects.

The user interface used should comply with the attached JPEG named “user_interface.jpg”. I also have the following comments to some of the sections in the user interface:

1. Logo
Use the logo attached, named “logo.jpg”.

2. Recommend to a friend
Titled “Tips en venn”
Consisting of two form fields labeled “Mottaker e-post” and “Avsender navn” and a button labeled “Send”.

3. Menu
Consisting of the following menu items:

Hovedsiden
Referanser
Hvordan vi arbeider
Samarbeidspartnere
Om Tronnelonn
Kontakt

4. About artist
A title saying “Om Tronnelonn”.
A lorem ipsum text taking up aprox. 50% of the area.
A picture. Preferably someone working with metal with their hands, either welding, blow torching or hammering. The picture should not show the workers face, unless covered by a welding mask.

5. Sign up for newsletter
Titled “E-postvarsel”
Description text: “Oppgi ditt navn og e-postadresse for å bli varslet om nye referanseprosjekter.”
Two form fields labeled ”Navn” and “E-post” and a button labeled “Send”.

6. and 7. – Most recent projects
The two most recent projects represented by an image, the project title and a short lorem ipsum description.

8. Footer
Containing lorem ipsum copyright data.


If you require additional information, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Looking forward to your contributions !

Hello.
Do you have logo in psd or eps file? I will make a try and post my version after weekend.

[Eirik]

Unfortunately no, so you'll have to make do with the JPEG. Looking forward to your contribution!

[Eirik]

Any other takes for this project?

[Eirik]

Great, geof! As always, looking forward to your contribution!

[Aliska]

Hello Eirik
Could you provide us with some photos of his sculptures?

[Eirik]

Of course. I just talked to the artist, and he will send me some pictures tomorrow.

[Eirik]

Hi guys,

You can find some pictures here:

(all pictures compressed at http://www.tronnelonn.no/pictures/pictures.zip)

They are all resized to 800x600 pixels. Let me know if you need a higher res on any of them.

[Aliska]

Thanks for the images. Will post my version in 1-2 days.

[Aliska]

Hello

[Aliska]

Hello
And the last version from me :) Waiting for your feedback

[Eirik]

Thanks for some great contributions, guys.

Here are the client's comments (Aliska - I haven't gotten the client's feedback on your latest contribution yet).

Aliska #1
The client likes your contribution a lot, but would like so see the following changes:

Remove the logo in the lower, right corner and continue the bottom line to the very left.

The balancing of the left and right column seems a bit is off. Can you look into this?

Also, I noticed that you're using some Corel dummy text. I will be getting a PSD as the final result, right?


Aliska #2
The client doesn't like anything about this contribution.

Fabian #1
The client doesn't like what you've done with the header image, and the fact that it takes up so much space. Also, he thinks there's no point in using the logo in more than one place.

Anne #1
The picture is wrong since the client doesn't do any forging (black smith work). Also, the client thinks the design is overall a little too plain ("It lacks some texture"). Color-wise, it looks good.

Looking forward to your revisions !

[Eirik]

Aliska #3
The client thinks your contribution looks nice, but lacks a ”metal feel” and would rather see you focus your efforts on your first contribution.

[Aliska]

Hello
I will make changes a my first version and upload tomorrow.
Sure, you will receive PSD file so you will be able to make any changes with images or text.

[Aliska]

Hello :)
Here's the changes at chosen version. What do you think?

[Anne]

I'll work on a revision tonight. I have an idea on how to improve it.

Here's the revision

[Eirik]

Hi guys,

The client has made his decision, and selected the latest revision by Aliska as the winning contribution. Congrats!

Anne: I personally liked your contribution a lot, but the client prefered the one by Aliska. Hope to see your contributions in future contests.

Aliska: Could you send me the PSD ASAP to eirik at netmaking dot no?

Thanks in advance !

[Anne]

Congratulation Aliska and thank you Eirik. I'll enter your other contest :)

[Aliska]

Hello Eirik
Thanks for choosing me :). I will email you with psd later today.

[Aliska]

Hello Eirik
I sent you email with psd file. Have you received it?

[Eirik]

Yes I did. Thank you! I have, however, sent you a comment by email. Please check it and get back to me.

Thanks in advance !

[Aliska]

Hello Eirik
I'm on trip now, but I received your message, and asap I come back I will make corrections and send file to you.

[Aliska]

Hello Eirik
I've made the changes and sent a link to file upload to you. Have you download the file? Is everything ok?

[Eirik]

Yes, I got it, and it looks fine. I guess that concludes our business for now. Thanks a lot!
