Hello all
We finally have a Tory MP willing to blog... and it's Boris Johnson!

:o)

My employer will be doing all the hard yakka for free, but I thought some B3tans and/or Bloggerheads readers might want a shot at doing the overall design.

The brief is as follows:

- Submit (as a GIF or JPEG) a design concept/template for Boris Johnson's site.
- Please include the standard weblog functions/aspects (as would appear on a Movable Type platform) in your design, as well as links/navigation for the following static pages - Home, About Boris, Constituency, News, Press Releases, Speeches, Photo Gallery, Conservative MPs Online.
- If you need permission-granted source images of Boris, you have but to ask (but feel free to submit a concept with any available images).
- Submissions to manic AT bloggerheads DOT com
- You have 48 hours from.... NOW!

Cheers all.

would the site itself need to be done in php [or similar] or would html suffice?

You're only asked for visual design
so I can't see a big diff. Platform will be Movable Type.

er
mess up your hair in a playful/non-sexual way

actually I guess tousle could be used in a sexual way but that's not how I'm using it.

I'm not a big fan of Blair
but I still produced a website that helps a Labour MP be a better MP.
