    Hello. I need a Twitter background made for this twitter account: http://twitter.com/FilmBookdotCom

    1. The background sizes have to be 756x1200 and 1440 x768.
    2. Vertically on the left: the Film-Book "486x60" logo.

    [​IMG]

    3. To the right of it, the Film-Book "125x125" logo.

    [​IMG]

    4. Underneath the "125x125" logo and to the right of the "486x60" logo, have the motto: "Reel Opinions, Reel Answers"
    5. Underneath that, have: "Connect with me:"

    6. Underneath that, have :
    small Facebook icon with this URL: facebook.com/FilmBookdotCom
    small MySpace icon with this URL: myspace.com/FilmBook
    small Youtube icon with this URL: youtube.com/FilmBookdotCom
    small FriendFeed icon with this URL: friendfeed.com/FilmBookdotCom
    small NetworkedBlogs icon with this URL: networkedblogs.com/blog/film_book_dot_com
    small Flickr icon with this URL: flickr.com/photos/30693123@N04

    The icons can be found from Google. The icons need to all be the same size on the Twitter background.

    7. Colors of Twitter background: Black, Dark Green, Grey, White, and Silver.

    The more professional the background the better.

    Possibly something like these twitter backgrounds but please if you have something else in mind, go for it. Examples to keep in mind: http://twitter.com/johnchow, http://twitter.com/mattwilsontv, http://twitter.com/marcusnelson

    I will comment on the designs as they come in to give everyone creative feedback.

    Prize: $20 via PayPal. Deadline: 48 hours from now.

    Good. I like the film reels in the background but they might not be necessary.

    Try to make the fonts as close to this twitter background: http://twitter.com/johnchow. See how his colors match each other: The link colors in the wallpaper match those in the twitter account, etc. The green I use is: 008000

    I put the background up to test the size and the placement out. The Wallpaper only fills up half the screen. Get rid of the vertical the Film-Book "486x60" logo or make it small enough some that everything is visible on the left. Also, use the original colors for the 486x60.

    I think I know how http://twitter.com/johnchow did it. They color matched the end of the 756x1200 wallpaper with the beginning of the twitter background so that it looks like one continuous wallpaper. We might be able to avoid this by using the 1440 x768 size. That is why I asked for two size versions of the wallpaper.

    Throw in a giant bar going across the wallpaper in a separate sample wallpaper from: http://twitter.com/mattwilsontv. Lets see how that looks in one sample.

    First off, the URLs have to be horizontal. The yellow sun has to go. Try using the colors I outlined.

    The Network Blog URL is blocked when I put your wallpaper in place. Make the vertical logo smaller so all the URLs can fit. Also, the wallpaper is not wide enough to cover the entirety of the background when uploaded (space is left uncovered to the right) hence why I asked for two sizes.

    Move "Connect with Me", icons, and URLS over to the left. Make "Reel Opinions, Reel Answers" smaller. The last few letters are cut off when placed as the background.
