We're open to the design, color and layout. We'd like the webpage to have a high-tech look, creative feel, but easy to use. Because the software will be used by computer novices as well as the computer literate, we want to give the impression of high-tech and powerful, as a lot of features are, but yet not intimidating and easy to maneuver.

This contest is has several prizes for each category. The prizes can be won separately or one individual. Each will be judged separately, and we may buy 1 or 2 of the entries in each category, for another project. You can submit an entry for 1 or multiple categories.

Logo - $300
The logo should sophisticated but not over the board. Were open to the color scheme for now.

Website template - $400
Were looking for something high-tech, sort of futuristic, but not over the top. This is software that will be used in a business atmosphere, so it must be designed as such. This will be the page used to actually sell our product. Wed like a centered orientation while easy to navigate. Well be adding flash to it later, but thats not part of this project since were not sure which direction well be going in for that. Here are menu headings: Home, Products, Websites, Support, Contact Us [Shopping Cart]

Operational Dashboard and Operational Webpage- $700
This dashboard will be actually be used in our online software program in the login area. This will be the first page that comes up when the user logs in. On this page well include statistics and summary figures of their business. As weve mentioned before, were looking for a design thats high-tech and powerful, as a lot of features are, but yet not intimidating. We believe a way to accomplish this is through the use of icons with titles beneath them, and segregation of subjects through the use of color. Colorful pictures quite often give the appearance of something simple, yet very powerful. I dont want to limit the creativity, so Ill leave it at that. Ive attached a couple of examples of both so you understand what were talking about.

Here is a little more info on the Operational Dashboard. Hopefully its not overkill.

Below are some of the icons and buttons we like for the Dashboard:
(Lead Management, House Inventory, Private Lender Management and Customer Support, with be sub-pages that will use the same Template well call Operational Webpage)
