Hello,
After a successful logo contest, we are back to launch a contest for our new web design. What we are looking for is a Web 2.0 style design with easy on the eye colors. We already have the logo made, so we are going to provide all graphic files, in order to match the design to it. In order to take part in this content, everyone should make two of the required pages from the site - The Main Page and the Free Templates View Page.
