Sitening Arrives In Chattanooga To Compete In An International Web Design Contest
The Sitening team arrived in Chattanooga tonight for the cre824 24 hour web design contest. The winner of the contest will travel to Paris to compete against teams from all over the world. Here’s a pic of Freddie, Scott and Ryan setting up equipment for the competition.

Sadly, we did not win the competition, although we did garner kudos from judges, competitors, and attendees. We definitely brought something to the table that no one else did, and our hope is that we might actually have influenced the competition’s notion of what “web design” is in the favor of our own definition, which favors web standards and the concept of communication and delivery of information over the web.
Where can I see the site you designed for the competition?
Currently, it’s on the cre824 server.
Nice job, I liked it! Which entry took first?
Thanks Greg! This is the site that won. They had some amazing flash design!
You can see other entrants at by appending ’01′ – ’20′ to ‘team’ as subdomains of cre824.net (although note that there are only 12 of twenty subdomains that were actually used). E.g., http://team01.cre824.net/ (which was actually one of my favorites).
An even easier way is to go to the results page.
Who judged this? The first place winners navigation was lacking. There was no way to go back to the home page, and the site, sort of locked you in and wouldn’t let you use the back button.
Just some critisism on my part!
There were four judges, apparently. We know that two of them, Timothy Gray and one of the reps from Adobe were judges, but I couldn’t find a public listing of the judges. Tim and the Adobe rep apparently dug our stuff, but I think we just had a different notion of the definition of “web design” from the international organizers.
