[Scummvm-devel] What happend to the new web design?

[Max Horn]

Hi folks, Hi Ender,

so, I still am wondering -- what the heck happened to our web design 
contest? We run it almost a year ago. We have a beautiful winner, who 
even implemented the few mods we requested, and sent us a PSD file as a 
template.

But as it seems from my perspective, as if that's where it stopped. 
Somebody (I forgot who exactly... travan? sorry, I'll have to dig 
through my mail archives) generously offered to do the HTML conversion 
for us, provided we submit the design files to him in time -- AFAIK 
that didn't happen, we only sent the design to him when he just had 
started a new job and hence had no time anymore.

That was bad, but not total disaster. We just should have found 
somebody else to do it... but then, it seems, nothing happened at all 
-- or did it? No visible efforts were made to find a new volunteer to 
work on this, I believe?

Ender, can you tell me anything more? If nothing happened indeed, fine, 
we can manage. In that case I'll just take over responsibility for the 
whole website issue, and will find somebody to do the conversion (by 
asking people I know, posting news items requesting help, whatever it 
takes)...

Oh and what about the contest prizes -- were those at least given to 
the winner? Or is he still waiting for them?

I really feel terrible about this whole situation. I also suggest that 
all communication with the person(s) who are going to the web 
conversion should be cross-posted to scummvm-devel. This way everybody 
on the team knows that status etc.. Far better to keep our 
communication as open and transparent as possible, IMNSHO.


Regards,

Max
