Web Design Brief

1. Description: This is a new web site for the fans of a Western TV series called "The Virginian". It ran for nine seasons from 1962 to 1971.

It is going to be a fan-generated content. The site will use a proprietary social-sharing software in the back-end. The software could be looked as your personal Facebook service running on your own domain. In fact, anyone can use this software for any social-sharing need.

A sample of the software running a social-sharing site:
http://www.iroon.com

The public-facing software has ten sections or modules as follows:

1. Survey
2. Blog
3. Links
4. Video
5. Music
6. Photo
7. Cartoon
8. Photo Album
9. Quotes
10. Follow/Followers (like twitter)

2. Delivery. Three designs for three pages. I need delivery in PSD, JPG and AI formats..

3. Pages

3.1. Homepage
Example: http://www.iroon.com

IMPORTANT REQUIREMENT. The Homepage should be designed such that I or the site Admin with basic knowledge of HTML and CSS can move around different sections or modules without a need to rewrite the CSS or HTML code.

3.2. Point of Entry or Summary page.
Example: http://iroon.com/irtn/blog/latest/

3.3. Detail page
Example: http://iroon.com/irtn/blog/2929/
