Challenge Summary

 

Topcoder is going to start taking some steps to refactor and improve the TopCoder community sites. The first one we'll start with is www.topcoder.com/tc. The first improvements involve updating some of the "services" that provide contest data to the front end. The current structure forces the contest types to be split into separate pages (i.e. there is a separate active/past/stats/etc. page for each contest type.

Some other contests related pages need to have new look as refactored new site, this contest is to redesign these pages with new look and feel.

 


Overview:

So far we have implemented /tc home page and some contests pages. There are still some related pages which have old look that have to be changed.

This contest will change the following pages with the new look (in all.zip):
1. Project Details page (e.g. http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ProjectDetail&pj=30024230).
2. View Project Registration page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ViewProjectRegistration&pj=30024230), attached.
3. View Registration page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ViewRegistration&pj=30025026), attached.
4. View Registrants page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ViewRegistrants&pj=30024230).
5. Review Project Detail page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ReviewProjectDetail&pj=30024831&pt=6 and one attached which does not have any reviewer applied).
6. Review Board page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ReviewBoard&pt=2).
7. Review Opportunities page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ViewReviewProjects&pt=2).
8. Project Review Apply page (http://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=ProjectReviewApply&pj=30023817&pt=6&pf=false&rt=18), attached.
9. Registration Closed page (attached).
10. Error page (attached).

Note that some links above can not show a proper page as the contest phase has ended or some other reasons. We have provided html files for those pages than can not be viewed which you can refer to.

The attached document includes the new TC pages as well as some current contests pages mentioned above.

Target audience:

These pages will be used primarily by topcoder members/competitors. Administrators and clients will be a secondary audience.

Judging criteria:

We hope to see more friendly and informative pages after revamping. Also new pages should also be creative and clean.

Branding guidelines

Your storyboard should match the new look and feel of the attached prototype to some degree. In other words, we are looking for styling that is compatible but not identical to the existing design. Do not use the Studio or TopCoder logo in your storyboard.
