Why? Not all designers can do cross browser xhtml/css (html5?) or even
django's template language, let alone the admin's unique template
environment.

I'm sure there are a number of CSS gurus in the community who can then
take over, and if there isn't, I'm certain the Django Foundation could
afford to hire one for a reasonable price. I think requiring
implementation would reduce the quality of the submissions.

If there is a competition (which I hope there is!), it would be good
if the submissions were to a clear set of requirements; eg a graphical
design in illustrator/inkscape format of:

* Base template (branding, header, footer, layout etc)
* Login box
* Home page (list of apps and models)
* Change list
* Change detail
* Random content, elements (change password, delete confirmation,
object history, invalid setup, 404 etc)

If backwards compatibility is required, add to that a list of elements
required for each page, based on the existing templates. But then
again, any radically new design can live alongside the old admin for a
time, to allow people to keep their customisations.

Cheers,

Will
