They may be looking to create a portal site with TopCoder to expand their innovative brand in a more technology-savvy way. Let’s show them what we’ve got to offer!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For this contest you will be developing storyboards for the Hormel powered by TopCoder Minisite.  This minisite will provide a portal for developers working on Hormel-related contests from idea generation all the way to building of apps, sites, widgets and much, much more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This minisite will give information about the contest including updated news, allowing competitors and spectators to view activity, and allow everyone to discuss the contests and ideas in general. Because Hormel Is not your average “tech company” we are looking for new ideas as to the type of contests and widgets that should be shown on this minisite.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;em&gt;Please remember to submit UNIQUE designs - do not simply make minor modifications and resubmit.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The current Horoscope section is outdated in its appearance, structure and presentation of content.  Its current format does not align itself with the current audience and needs to be updated to reflect the larger demographic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The client is looking for updates that reflect a modern and clean look for their new site layout with easy navigation and an inviting presence. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For this contest, you will be taking the client requirements (see attached document) and site content to provide a fully-clickable wireframe solution. This will help lay out the new site navigation and flow for the coming redesign.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; We will need the following pages redesigned and reorganized:&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;1.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Home page&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;2.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Per Sign Page&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;3.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Daily Horoscope page&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;4.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Monthly Horoscope page&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Yearly Horoscope page&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6.&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Basic Sign Characteristic page&lt;/p&gt;
