- Brief Summary
-
Design a home page from scratch that promotes an African Travel business offering overland camping safaris to luxury game lodges!
The page needs to conjure up the romance and excitement of Africa's exotic destinations and experiences. The term 'Big Five' refers to five of Africa's greatest wild animals - lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino.
The page must be very appealing, exciting, well balanced and designed in a way that will still allow me to optimise the page as much as possible for a moderately fast load time!
For example; being aware not to design too many elements that require slicing of large rectangular sections and lots of large image sizes to display the page correctly in the final HTML code. This is my description of how to achieve a moderately fast load time. :) - Actions

A big Thank You to all 7 designers for taking the time to design and enter this contest (and to the two who pulled out for whichever reason). I commend you for your efforts and hope you win your fair share of contests real soon. See you again in another contest.
I would like to congratulate weshine for being chosen as the winning submission.
And thank you for your supportive words to your fellow designers above Alexel, that is very good spirited of you :) I do hope you win another yourself real soon.
Warm Regards

@Weshine: I am sorry that I've used the same picture like You. I haven't realize that until my design was almost done. I've tried to look another one that represent Safari within SXC but I couldn't find anything that fits. I know that our designs have nothing similar (except that picture), but I just wanted to mention that it wasn't my intention to copy anything from Your design. BTW Great design...
Cheers. -

Some quick updates,
I forgot to include a "Contact Us" nav button after "register" in the main navigation. Will also include this in the brief now.Could you also note that the main navigation will need to be designed to expand vertically as more navigation items are added in the future.
All the best.
