[ANNOUNCEMENT] Theme Contest

It's that time again. Since the last major re-design of the site in December 2004, lots has changed. Gallery has released Gallery 2 and NukedGallery has had spectacular growth in the number of visitors to the site, surpassing half a million in February 2006, with no end in sight.

As such, I believe it's time for a fresh look for the site, not because the existing look is "old", but because I believe that a new design for the site is a logical companion to the ushering in of a new era, that of Gallery 2 and the continued growth of NukedGallery.

If you are a professional (or aspiring) graphic artist and you're interested in designing the new theme for this site, here are some basic guidelines to help you out:

Your design must work with this site's version of PHPNuke, 6.8.
You will be designing the following elements:
- Main theme for the site, specifically an index page layout (note that this is currently done with a separate module, not the stock News module).
- Corresponding theme for the forums.
- Site logo
Your design should be original, not based on any existing themes available for PHPNuke. Brand identity is important here
Your design should be clean and uncluttered.
Your design should provide for an easy to use, intuitive navigation system (ie, breadcrumbs, etc).
You must be willing to turn over full ownership of the theme to NukedGallery. You will receive full credit for the design in the footer, complete with a link to your site/business/service. Additionally, you will be assured that your theme will not be released by me to anyone else (I've turned down dozens of requests for copies of the theme currently in use, and will continue to do so).

If you're interested, please send Dari an email at dari AT nukedgallery.net.
