We need a new layout for [[login to view URL]][1] together with a short study that will justify the proposed layout.
The site focuses on real-time sports results - please visit it for more information.
We have seen various layouts, but what we need the most is a "justification", i.e. why that button is top-left, why that banner will gain more attention there and so on. For someone who knows how to write it, it won't take more than a few hours - 3 pages should be sufficient. This study is also supposed to help us decide which layout should be preferred over another.
Layout requirements:
1) the fewer/faster the images, the better (flash OK if justified)
2) the hard part: it has to include many banners and at the same time focus on the content - it should not look like a "banners-only" site, even if "the more the better"!
We currently use, but are open to suggestions:
- 728x60 or so at top of all, sometimes
- 468x60 top frame
- 468x60 bottom of content page
- 2 of 120x40 left frame
- 120x600 right frame
3) should include 4 pages, three of them existing (Email Service, Live Results, Latest News) and one new (multi-sport selection page, to be used as home page in the future).
If you suggest that only 1 layout or 100 different layouts should be used, it is fine as long as you can justify it.
4) The look and feel should remain across all pages and must be based on green
--
You must prove both that you know how to write this study and that you can design a professional layout - links of previous works/studies are required. You should also be available through MSN messenger for details and feedback.
I hope there is nothing missing - I am new to rentacoder...
