[Meta] We need a new look! New CSS Competition

The /r/videos CSS has stagnated for a while. We are looking for new layout style!

So I talked it over with the other mods, and we decided a little friendly competition for new CSS might be a good idea.

What we'd like to see

• A complete style overhaul including normal, wiki, and submit pages.


• Special focus on the sidebar to call out information (similar to r/technology)


• A new logo and sidebar image(s)

Subreddits we like (in no particular order)

There isn't a specific subreddit that we like because we do not want to encourage you to make a copy or have your idea be based on them.

However, there are layout styles that we do not want you to use:

• 
  

  r/naut

  
  


• 
  

  r/edurne

  
  


• 
  

  r/space's theme

  
  


• 
  

  r/futurology's theme

  
  


• 
  

  r/mindashq

  
  


• 
  

  r/boxed

  
  

or any other familiar/popular css style layout used.

What you get for winning?

• Special flair labeling you as the victor


• 6 months of Reddit gold compliments of reddit.com


• Sidebar mention

How to enter?

Create a subreddit for yourself (it's free), and style it up. Post the completed thing here. Contest mode will let upvotes do the narrowing, but the mod team will decide the final winners

The current stylesheet can be found here: http://www.reddit.com/r/videos/about/stylesheet

When is the deadline?

Submissions need to be in by September 9th, 2014

Addendum

• As a default sub, we'd prefer uniqueness and distinction. We are a huge proponent of functionality and readability over gaudy eye-candy.
