P U R P O S E
The idea behind the contest is that the rigid constraints of designing for the web are what force us to get truly creative. Between servers and bandwidth, clients and users, HTML and the DOM, browsers and platforms, our conscience and our ego, we're left in a very small space to find highly optimal solutions. Since the space we have to explore is so small, we have to look harder, get more creative; and that's what makes it all interesting. Just celebrating that is all.
J U D G I N GEntries will be judged according to four criteria: (i) size, (ii) aesthetic appeal, (iii) function, (iv) overall concept & originality.
Judges will be drawn from across the web design industry, and will use their own platform, their own browser with their own plug-ins and none of these will be revealed.
