The application process for a new designer and co-moderator for this community is now open. If you know someone whom you think might be a good designer specific to this community, be sure to give them the link to this page (it is public). Spread the word.
Each application will be thoroughly screened and an interview will follow. The top three designers will then be voted on by the community for their input. I will take applications for two weeks.
Each applicant should be prepared to submit links to two original layout screenshots or working layouts. Applications will be submitted by email for privacy purposes.
Thanks!!
