Team Photoshop Site Design Competition - And the winner is...

this was my submission

congrats rodder

i think this layout, maybe with a large graphical abstract bg behind it, could work well for the overall site. we shall see...

Get Mambo and be done with it... That's what that winning layout reminds me of, no offense.

crip, one of us won! ipods for us all! thanks rodder, gj.

think u (rich) could put up some runner-ups?

Thanks guys. And a big thanks to Rich (....starts rewording malibu's speech....).

No more Pank tubes????

Yeah, that feels a little odd. They could always be worked in though.

Since this is teamPHOTOSHOP I do feel the layout needs to have some finger licking eye candy

I can't promise that kind of candy. Would you settle for a sugar rush? So far I have 2 skins, one rich already has. Im hoping they will spice things up. It's up to rich though if he wants to use them or not.

Big congrats Robber!

That's hawt rodder, way to be.

I love how "Newest" is spelt wrong in "Newsest Images"

But it looks sharp, great job.

Great job, looks smooth.

I like it, much better than the whole 'red' thing.

I do have an important comment though: the top banner needs to stay on top and be smaller than the masthead (like it was in the first version by Rodder, only centered) because right now it gets confused with the site content very easily and distracts the user.

Maybe the site could focus on design rather than techniques or steps that achieve a certain result. There are lots of places that have tutorials, few that explain design principles and it's the latter that really make the difference.
