Brief Summary

****FINAL UPDATE BEFORE END**** I really feel terrible that I have not been able to provide the feedback that I was able to at the beginning of the contest. I'm going to provide some final hints to developers....
1. Graphical elements - Must make us say "Wow..." We need the design to be attractive. Incorporate the graphics, don't just place them.
2. Make it functional. Think as if you were our customer. We don't need all the text on the front page, subpages will provide details... tease me...
3. Professional but still Web 2.0ish... Icons are great, I really like the small ones, but they may not be necessary. Maybe as a rollover or next to text items...
4. Don't waste space, but don't crowd. Too much white space can be bad, but I don't want to feel overwhelmed.

There are some AMAZING designs on here and we are really struggling with this decision. It will take us some time to decide. There is STILL TIME LEFT!! WE HAVE NOT PICKED A WINNER!!

Good luck!!!

On the main page, I need an area for news, a link for our services, an introduction section, etc.

We had such great success here with our logo that we are looking to complete our design for our web page as well. We are a small industrial cage and rack washer company that services large pharmaceutical research facilities and hospitals. We work on very expensive, high-end machinery. We maintain, repair, and inspect the machinery and train the facility personnel on operations and maintenance.

READ OUR BRIEF! THERE ARE MANY DETAILS!! Let us know if you need more!

    Congratulations to Simonbun! His design #77 is the winning design. You don't know how tough it was to pick this design! We agonized over some great mockups. In the end, his design met all of our requests and when it came down to it, we will be proud to use his design as the face of our company!!

    We want to extend a giant thank you to all that participated and will definitely come back to use 99designs in the future!!

    Because i have a quote box and intro doesnt mean its "surprisingly" similar, there allot of differences between my design and "jesse's". Also his site reminds me of the microsoft, i think it was vista or surface....

    I can proof its all custom design, and i'm inspired by an old design of me i build for Media mansion, and the quote box idea is from the Adobe Spry Ajax framework homepage. But than again... allot of pages have quote boxes....

    So.. You got to be kidding me.
