Hey everyone! There’s a new feature coming to DesignersMind. Starting next Saturday evening, the DesignersMind Weekly Design Review will begin! Every week, anyone can send in a link to their website, or a website they designed. Friday night, submissions will be closed and one design will be picked at random. The next evening, I will post a detailed critique of the site’s design, including mini-reviews from a few selected designers from different fields of design, to get a more in-depth look at things! In addition, the submitter of the design that is chosen for review will receive a free ad-banner design from yours truly!
So if you have a website you’d like to have critiqued, send a link my way. Please send an e-mail including your name, a link to the site you’d like reviewed, a link to your own site (if different from the site reviewed), and an extra contact method, in case your design is chosen, to submit(at)designersmind.com with the subject WDR Submission!
If you’d like to be one of the reviewers for the Weekly Design Review, please send an e-mail to submit(at)designersmind.com including your name and contact information with the subject WDR Writer Application. I need people who are skilled writers and have strong knowledge in typography, XHTML/CSS, and any other aspect of web design. Think you have something great to bring to the reviews? E-mail me!
Hope to see some submissions soon. Happy designing everyone!
Regards,
Tyler Lemieux

Awesome idea. Do the authors of the “mini-review” get linked back? Or some sort of compensation?

Hey Bryan, thanks for the comment! Yes, I forgot to mention that; the authors of the “mini-reviews” get a link back to their site!
