Whether re-design or not, I know that $30 bucks wont cut it. Trust me, you will get something you like, there are many excellent designers here, they wont let you down.. hopefully.

Anyways, you will definantly have to raise the price if you want the contest to be allowed.

$30 is way too low, raise the price or face the contest being declined

I will offer much more for homepage and 1-2 inner pages design (xhtml-css) but the obligation to select a winner, either you like the design or not....I think is not fair.
I know other contest forums and you have no obligation to pay for something you donīt like.
As I mention above, if I like a design, the winner will have a lot of work with me.
The 30$ are for a jpg suggestion of the homepage(i wont ask for revisions or other work) in order to select the best idea/design/style.
I hope you understand that.The site is an amateur site, and actually donīt give any benefits, so I donīt have an infinitive budget or willing to spend money in an uncertain result.
Perhaps, for this money is better to go to templatemonster, and buy one.
Thanks for your comprehension.

Ok, it seems you only scan for the price, and donīt read anymore....or you donīt understand my english at all.
In my 10 years as a graphic designer, I have made hundreds of proposals and taking part in a lot of contests, and only being paid if the work was finally done.
Thatīs the risk of this business.I was going to pay the right cuantity if there was a winner, not only the 30$ for the initial idea.....
I have received 5 emails of people interested in giving me a proposal with some design ideas , free of charge...Thank you.
You have to think about it...there are people, top level designers, in India, Argentina and other countries, who earn 5-6$/hour....Do you think, it cost more than two hours for making such a concept?
Now, seeing the ages of you (20, 15, 16....) I begin to understand everything
You want, as a teenager amateur designer to earn professional hourly rates.
Itīs not my problem, if you want to charge 6 hours x 30$, for a work that can be best done by somenone professional in 2 hours at 5$/hour.
I cancel the contest and good luck, you will need it.....

Thanks

Sorry that things couldn't be resolved to your liking. If you're looking for slave labor design, try china or india.

Clearly he hasn't seen some of the work that comes out of this community, regardless of age.
