Quick question - would you like a modified blog template for existing blog software you already run or will this be a purely new design with a blog look?

I'll work on something asap for you.

This will be a Wordpress Blog. However, I want a unique design and not one of the thousands of available themes.

I would also consider a unique custom made theme instead of the psd file, but I might need the graphic components as psd for eventual modifications.

I can also set up a webspace with Wordpress installed and send you the ftp access for testing purposes if necessary.

Will we have to supply the wordpress backend code for the template or will you be doing this to the template yourself?

The original idea, is that I only receive the psd and take care myself of making a wordpress theme out of it.

However, if anyone is more comfortable working directly on a Wordpress theme, that is fine for me.

Very straight forward!
...but where do the items like Categories, Recent posts, Archives, Meta and so on go???

Please have a look at what kind of elements are needed for a Blog!!!

@EliteDesigns
Just ad a footer to make it look complete please.

@moinuddin102
Good try. I need to get a "feel" for it. I'll probably get back to you for changes later.

Let me see if I understand: you need a design for a blog, I'll also have to make a logo and also code the design for $100

@ClaudiuCC
Oh yes, that would be great. The requirement only state a design including Logo as a psd file though.

@EliteDesigns
Although The final decision will be in a poll, I find your design does not quite suit the subject. It's sort of too catchy and somewhat overloaded with graphic elements.

@moinuddin102
I like your second design!
But please, please, change the logo

@JanineXD
The body elements are not quite suitable for a straightforward blog structure.

@all
I think I would prefer a small simple symbol type Logo. The phrase "Start Domaining" would then be real text and not graphic text.

This is going to be a great contest!!!

It's not a question of not liking certain elements. I just I find it a little too crowded.
