Round One begins! The first theme is.... SUMMER! You're challenge is to design a myspace layout with a summer theme! From beaches, to wildlife retreats... from academic freedom, to hot weather, it's your choice! It can be anything as long as it is tied directly to the theme, and creativity is expected and encouraged. For this round, you can choose between designing a DIV Overlay or a Stand Table layout. Keep in mind that as the contest progresses, the judges might decide to eliminate this choice in future rounds. So, choose wisely. PM your submission to ALL of the judges, not just one - that way in case one judge is missing, we still have all of the entries at the deadline. RULES: 1) No use copyright images 2) It cannot be a layout made in the past or submitted anywhere else 3) Must be appropriate content and fit the theme 4) No generators 5) After each round, remaining layouts must be submitted to cB 6) Submissions cannot be just an image, they have to be coded as well Now that the deadline has passed, the contestants for Round One are:
Judges for this contest are:
Rachael (digitalfragrance) | Kristina (flardnarf) | Michelle (mulder) | Toya (freeflow) | Kiera (mzkandi) (Thanks Thomas!  )

QUOTE(SinfullySweet @ Jun 30 2007, 01:34 AM)  Oh my dear lord. Is there going to be one contestant removed per round  There are a lot of participants but like stated already some may not participate anymore. Some will also not go through the first round and/or have their name removed. So you have nothing to worry about. If we find that its taking WAY to long we will eliminate more than one. But you guys will be informed if we decide to go that way. QUOTE(twilightsamurai @ Jun 30 2007, 01:41 AM) ^  Wow, yeah, that'd be pretty long but whether or not it is, in some contests, they have inactive participants so I guess that's also a plus?  Anyway, I have a question. You know how you said that comparing a flash-made layout to the others won't be a worry? Well, what about a stand table layout being compared to a div? And.. a stand table layout is a like a default layout right? No fancy coding? Just CSS, images, etc.?Its your choice. But just because you make a DIV layout it doesn't mean your staying in the contest. Table layouts can do just as well as DIVS. Like above stated some people can code a DIV like no other but they have a lot of trouble making it look really good. (Trust me I go through the queue I know) . Also this is the first round where there will be NO specifications. When we get to the later rounds you will have to either do only table layouts or only DIVs. QUOTE(SinfullySweet @ Jun 30 2007, 08:31 AM) Does that mean we are supposed to submit our layout to createblog, and send the link to the judges of the pending layout? No don't submit them. PM your layout code (please place it in a codebox) + screenshot to a mod. After the round is over all the remaining contestants will then submit the layout to cB. That way you don't have to rush and that way we can keep track of your layouts. See with SO many mods going through the queue half won't know which is for the contest and which is not so yea. Its a lot easier that way. Also this wasn't mentioned but.... NO GENERATORS If you feel there is something you need to use one for.. ask a mod before doing so. cB provides codes you can use. From CSS to the hide your profile scripts and DIV codes. There is no reason a generator will be needed. |
