PROJECT BACKGROUND
The purpose of this project is to provide Gig workers encouragement and keep them up to date with the opportunities related to their skills that get posted every week. We need a banner design for the weekly newsletter. In addition, to provide a token of appreciation we have planned to provide them with a Digital certificate upon successful completion of the gig, this will allow them to showcase their experience across social media platforms (for example: LinkedIn, etc) and share their achievements with other friends online. The digital certificate will only be shared online. The certificate will also be used by members to share on LinkedIn that they have completed a gig with Topcoder, so when designing keep in mind both certificates' roles.
DESIGN GOALS
- Make sure the design is clean cut, professional, and simple.
- Make your text instantly readable.
- Make the newsletter exciting!
