Challenge Overview
Open Call for Examples of Great Application Design!
The purpose of this contest is really simple: explian to us some great application designs. Why? The users of the current application are highly trained for their work environment. They are experts in their field. However, many stakeholders have not had the opportunity to explore other web-based applications that are in use today. They are asking you to explain to them what a really well designed and laid-out application should include, and explain why (or why not!) the design is sound. And that's it! We will use the ideas selected in this contest to describe and illustrate principles of good design to our stakeholders.
What To Cover in Your Submission:
For your submission, you'll need to research other applications to find good examples of best practice design. These other application can be used for any purpose. Again, show us screenshots of what works well to help with explaining your ideas.
Winning Submission Payment: $1,000
2nd Place Payment: $500
3rd Place Payment: $250 (if selected by client)
