For this design competition, you must design a link back banner or button for IceCaves. The best ones (or all of them) will be added to our Link Back page with proper credit. The criteria for this comp is that you design a banner for IC that promotes IC. Animations are accepted, and the banner doesn't have to be generic for all of IC, either. You are free to submit a banner that promotes any specific area of IceCaves or all of it. For example, the banners in our link back page promote IC in general, but for this competition you are free to submit banners that advertise specifically a single section f the site such as our stock photos, our Photoshop Tutorials, our scripts, etc. Be creative! Any dimensions are allowed, but keep the banners larger than 100x100 px. As always, the winner of this competition will win two weeks of free advertisement on our sidebar. Submission deadlines are one week from now: March 22nd. | Full Story >> |

If you followed the comments on the post, a discussion ensued in the comments among the members about their views and opinions relating to the layout and how it could improve. | Full Story >> |
