COMPETITION NOW CLOSED - WINNER TO BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY

Another day, another great opportunity to win an EXTRA GAMEADAY prize. That's one prize of any game of your choice if you are a member of SR, or one prize of an SR Membership with Free Gift, if you are not a member.

Take a look at this page:

http://registration.freeola.net/errors/e.php?ec=404

The purpose of this page is to show people that they have gone to the wrong page.

However, there is another important role for these pages, and that's to get people to our site! Most of the people seeing this error page have never heard of us, and we want them to become SR fans.

This competition closes on August 10th and will be judged by Loki himself.

To win you must design a simple, fast-loading page with sufficient innovation to achieve a high click rate to the following sites:
UKgames.com
UKpc.net
Freeola.com
GetDotted.com

Place the url in a reply in this thread and Loki will pop in from time to time and publish your link as a hotlink in this opening thread (so that people can easily see all the page designs you have entered).

You can enter as many times as you like and there will be one winner who produces the design which impresses loki the most. If no designs impress loki at all then he will not issue a prize.

It's vital that the page loads quickly. You are more likely to win with some clever wording than you are with flashy designs. You can use one of our stock banner, like the one shown on the error page at present, or you can make your design without a banner if you like.

Good Luck.

What Fuzzy means is: Yes you will need a program like Dreamweaver but if you've got Frontpage, that will work just as well.
You might need an image program but it's not essential as some images are avaliable from this website.

No, just a image package (if you're doing an image of what the page should look like) or Frontpage etc (if your going to do an actual page)

Both work good, but it's a design they want.

Yeah i understand the logistics of the competition, but im assuming i will need site builder software to be able to make the page in the first place.

You just draw a picture / creat a webpage with an Error 404 message in a innovative way.

Just make an image and stick on hyperlinks or creat a page in Frontpage etc.

I'll post it up for you on m site if you have problems getting it up
