Most importantly, you will be able to say that you were the person or company that ''made Bugzilla pretty''--a career-changing (and very marketable) accomplishment, at the least.

==How To Enter==
To enter, all you have to do is submit an image that is a redesign of this bug view page:
[[File:Ugly bug.png|thumb|none]]
You don't need to submit a working HTML page, and in fact we don't want one--we just want an image.
To make your submission, just create a new sub-section of the "Entries" section below. You can see a sample entry there. If you have any trouble, you can also just email your submission to mkanat@bugzilla.org.
The deadline for submission is '''February 1, 2011'''.
You may want to start with something simpler than the bug view page, so you can first submit a redesign of the front page, if you want. The front page looks like:

==The Rules==
* You must preserve all of the functionality of the current bug view page. Mostly, this means that you can't remove any field or link from the current image above.
* You may move anything on the page around to anywhere.
* This is not a usability contest, only a contest for how ''nice'' the resulting user interface looks. We have already done heavy usability work on Bugzilla--you are certainly welcome to improve visual usability aspects, but remember that other significant usability changes should happen as part of a separate project, not here.
* The winner's design will become the official design of Bugzilla 5.0, although we may make modifications to it as we implement it. We may choose to only use part of the winning design, and we may choose to combine multiple designs (in which case all designs used will be considered to have "won").
* The judges are the Bugzilla Reviewers, with the Bugzilla UI Lead (Guy Pyrzak) having veto power and two votes.

==Sample Entry==
Here's a little description of what I did, some of my thoughts about this design, and who I am.
