Web site hosting template

[sinclac]

Hello, (Admin code added by Palmer - 85913G)

Now that i have my logo (Made by julie) it is time to get the site done.

I want this site to be very professional, my favorite color is blue (If that helps)l
I perfer link buttons over text

I am looking for a complete template fully coded as follows:

Home page
Should have our different offering Unix/Windows which will lead to our plans page and domain search.
Logo files are in zip file.


plans page
Text in zip file
I will code the order buttons for the plans.

About Us
Zip file attached with this text.

Terms of use page
Text is in zip file

Mission and Philosophy
I can fill in later (Just put blah blah text for now)

FAQ
I will provide info

Contact
I will provide info

This is what the I expect delivered for the $350.00

The site needs to be fully coded. After the template is built. ( I will code the order buttons)
Updating the site should just involve changing text (i will be using Dream Weaver.)

Feel free to be creative.

I’ll check frequently to give feedback and answer questions. I’d like to have a deadline of Friday, July 12th.

Hi,
count me in, but i dont understand, is this a contest ?: that is; The Design Team provide you with various templates for you to choose one, and the winner receive $350 ?
Or are you asking for a full site design.
I was thinking of maybe you could choose a design/template at first, and then, the winner should add the text/content you provided.
:huh:
Brian

[Palmer]

Just to clarify, you're wanting the template fully coded not the site. Correct? Because a fully coded site would run you a few more thousand dollars ;)

[sinclac]

Palmer,

Whats a few thousand dollars :rolleyes:

Yes i want the template fully coded as discribed above.

Palmer,

In other words, you want the following pages to be coded and filled with text (if applicable):

Plans
About Us
Terms of Use
Mission & Philosophy
FAQ
Contact

Correct?

If you want to add the content i provided in the zip file that's fine if not i will with dream weaver.

Palmer,

How much will it cost me LOL!! :lol:

Hi Chuck,

A few questions so I can get a better handle on what you had in mind:

Did you want to go with the "wow" factor and compromise speed a bit, or did you want sleek and fast?
Are there any hosting sites which have styles that you are particularly fond of?
To clarify, would a one page template suffice for this contest until the winner is chosen (who would then, of course, finish the rest of the coding and content in the zip file)?Thanks!

I think i would like the WOW factor :tup:

Hosting Sites:
Webpage (http://www.renewhosting.com/) This one i kinda like the banner

Webpage (http://www.1websuccess.com/hosting_Win.htm) I kinda like this one but it is a bit sparse on content.

Webpage (http://www.panalinks.com/hosting.htm) I hate this one i don't like the pages that only take up center part of the screen

Webpage (http://www.hostexcellence.com/) This one is as close as it gets to something i like.

I think the one page template idea will work, then the winner can finish the project aster chosen.

My Webpage (http://www.willowhost.net) This is a template i bought and then decided i did not care for it.

Hi,
I'll definitely will be entering this contest. I specialize in hosting site designs. I've done over 75 hosting site designs and always adding to the number. :)

[lang]

Would you happen to have a Photoshop version of the logo without the white matte/shadow effect?

[sinclac]

Every thing i have is in the zip file that's how i got it JuileT

[Julie]

Chuck--I believe Lang has the file he needed now.

[lang]

I'm here to vouch for Julie's wonderful help and speedy response! Thanks again!

[Julie]

No prob, Lang :D

JulieT,

Thank You fro your help.

[Huscy]

Could I also have the .psd format logo please?
when I get it I will most likely submit an entry within 24 hours.

[kempes]

I'm new at this forum and I trying my hand at this.

I was wondering if this would be acceptable.

[admin edit- Only members of the Design Team are permitted to enter contests, pre-made templates are also not allowed anyway. Please follow the site guidelines (http://www.designoutpost.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=35&s=). Thanks :)]

[Huscy]

I have a hosting template here [link removed] and if i could have the .psd logo i will add it, and your content if you're interested?

Pre-made templates are not permitted. If you would like to customize it to the contest holders specifications from his first post you may do that and submit that entry.

Thanks :)

[Huscy]

yeah, i was waiting for the logo, ive got it now - but im confused as to what you want on the home page,
Home page
Should have our different offering Unix/Windows which will lead to our plans page and domain search.
Logo files are in zip file.

Im not sure what 'should have our different offering unix/windows which will lead to our plans page' means? do you want two sections, one unix and one windows??

[Palmer]

Huscy, all of the details are in the zip file :)
http://www.wblandscape.com/Host.zip

He offers both Windows and Unix.

[Huscy]

my entry, comments welcome.

[sinclac]

Huscy,

Over all it is missing the WOW! factor and the links at the top i prefer buutons over text.

[marengo]

sinclac, sorry but i ask again the same question. Your contest for $350: not only 1 template fully coded but winner will be put all content too? So it's fully coded site for $350? Thanks! :)

[marengo]

Excuse me. I have asked because of mess in definitions. Fully coded template and fully coded site are not the same. Thanks :)

[lang]

Hi Marengo,

The way I understand it, Chuck wants the winning template to be sliced and coded into HTML and have the relevant content placed into the subpages as well. Of course, any programming aspects or forms would be handled by Chuck - we would just make templates for the entire site.

By the way, I'm working on a template for this contest and it should be up real soon. :)

Lang

[motiveX]

I will probably come up with something for this here contest...not sure yet.

:look:

[marengo]

Yes Lang, i've understood now. :) thanks.

lang,

Nice very nice I'm still studying it but the first thing i noticed is the all windows packages on the front page, what if we just do one UNIX and one windows with more info buttons leading to the package page.

wwwzone
Same as above

[lang]

Sure, the content can easily be changed. Any actual changes you want to make to the layout? Some people like websites with curves and others like the standard 3 column or 3 row approach.
