I know this isn't the place for a conversation like the previous, but since its happens all the time:) and Beograd's comments could be great examples of professional and positive attitude I think that it shouldn't be removed.
By the way my version contains well over 300 lines of code right now:D but it has a lot more customization allowed in it than the CH originally requested since this is a modification of another project of my own (khm).
I will submit it soon

I'm still doing my entry. I will post it tomorrow.

i will post an entry tomorrow

alrichey I wasn't complaining about the prize money here. I tried to help you out with suggestions since I thought you missed something (understandable since youre not into flash i guess) and I only tried to help you out in getting more submissions. I also thought you might have something against that "borrowing" method since you might end up with legal issues.

I'm really sorry if i offended you in any way with my comment... I didn't planned to enter this contest anyway and the reason why I posted this in public is because I thought that would be ok but I realise that I was wrong. I should PM you and tindero03 but... My bad. Sorry once again.

Many designers come here to learn something and have fun. There are a lot of awesome articles and amazing designers here and thats why I often come here.

Whatever, we're just trying to tell you that your prize it is low. Just that. And I care, that's the reason for my post here. I care to set a minimal standard, but there is always greedy people roaming this place.

200$ is a lot of money considering the fact that this is not your work dude!
Taking the free sample and modifying it (poorly since you didn't even changed the color scheme) from templatemonster.com isnt something that you should offer as your work...
Just to back up my statement I am posting address where you got this "work of yours":
http://www.templatemonster.com/samp…2bgtnvab33

Anyway, I agree about the prize money - its too low since theres a lot of work and code (more than 300 lines of code I think just by looking at the sample).

Suggestions pointed to CH:
- make a bigger offer (something like 400$) if you want to see some serious work here (Im not talking about stealing the code or the whole thing from that sample);
- extend this contest for 3-4 more days;
- describe what eelse you want to see in that flash (more menu's, etc.);

OR buy that template for 250$, find someone skilled enough to modify it for you and make a deal with him.
Either way, 200$ is not realistic price for this (unique price is "a bit" bigger as you can see on templatemonster.com ;)

Cheers ad good luck to everyone!

i have an entry now.. but i can say that the $200 very little for the flash gallery.

Yeah I'm with plateaux... $200 is very little for this kind of project, especially with the features you want.
