This would be super cool. Could even do community-based upvoting on what a leading website should look like.

Curious as to how the legal end would work re: IP. If you have 1,000 people redesigning Reddit and publishing it for all to see, there's bound to be some serious design overlap (whether intentional or not) when said company eventually goes through a redesign.

Oh that's awesome. And yea - not sure how the legal end would work either. Will ask around and let you know what we hear!

My thoughts were that you give the website owner free/full access to the redesign and engagements stats for users on the redesign. If users are more engaged and the company earns more ad revenue from the redesign.. maybe they can just implement it?
