Hi designers! I'm sorry - I love DesignCrowd because it taps AMAZING individual talent (but I HATE DesignCrowd because I realize that some of you are pretty much working for free). I love so many of the submissions, but I realize some of my instructions we pretty vague. Could I re-state and elaborate because I obviously did a very poor job.

I envisioned in my 5 pages the following: 1) Home, 2) About Us, 3) Meet Us (or Meet the Owners), 4) An Articles or Information page where the current articles could be incorporated (this is where I would like to add/include the information about ice dams ); NOT prominently as it may have seemed, but so I can guide potential callers to it, if needed and 5) A contact us section where our phone number, e-mail, etc are displayed.

The most important information to me is more in the about us section; we are a small, "hometown" company that cares... So many of the submissions look just SO CLOSE to what we have already - I was hoping to change/spruce it up a bit more (and I apologize - I'm not very creative so that's why it's hard to elaborate on that part)!

I want to close the project to any new submissions (I have almost 30 from 5 different designers) so that one of you gets the work! I had planned or was hoping to pick something/someone today so nobody waste any more time... I am trying to whittle designs down to my favorites, but I wonder if there is any way to get across our "message a bit better" (i.e. - hometown company) and be a bit riskier with the design? Ugh, I don't want to be difficult AT ALL so I will continue to review the submissions and try to pick asap. THANKS!
