We are looking for one main design for our generic book. If you offer more then one theme that will increase your chances of winning as we will see more of your work. The idea is to follow up with the winner on creating more templates.
Note the final book will be created by a flash applicaiton. Delivery needs to be flash friendly files. So that we may utilize and just drop user images into selected spots in templates.
Please provide 5-10 different page layouts.
- Hip Design
- Vector graphics or Images or both
- Treatment for backgrounds, image frames and positions.
- Cover design
- Flash friendly files (our application is in flash)
Please avoid generic design, try to make it stand out from the rest of the photobook fare.
