Design Deadline

Design Deadline is a new Web-based service developed to help Web designers complete projects in a timely manner.

If you are a Web designer working on an independent project and are looking for a little extra motivation to complete a project, then consider turning to your online peers for help.

Simply Register

If you are working on a redesign, simply upload a "before" screen shot of the current Website anytime before the monthly deadline. Then, upload an "after" screen shot of your redesign within a week of the deadline.

Once the deadline has passed registered users will be allowed to comment on your design work and provide feedback. Since only registered users will be allowed to comment, the feedback you receive will likely be from fellow designers who are motivated enough to review your work and professional enough to provided meaningful feedback.

The service can be useful for Web applications, company sites, personal blogs, redesigns, brand new designs — you name it. As a member of Design Deadline you can rank sites, comment on them and identify favorites.

First Tuesday

Mark your calendar for the first Tuesday of every month. The first portfolio review is scheduled for February 5, 2008.

The Creator

This service was developed by Adam Howell, a UI (user interface) designer and front-end engineer at Google. Check out Design Deadline and sign up today.
