    Greetings

    So I'm looking to have my website redesigned and I'm running across some complications with my designer. They have not been able to produce a design I'm comfortable with for a custom WordPress theme.

    My current site is located here

    The mockup is located at

    Now the design concept was based off of this site

    I asked the team to create me a custom image that conveys the message "We will bring targeted traffic to your doors" & "We take local marketing to a new level"

    As you can see I'm not happy with the look they provided. I need a clean and functional design that presents the proper image. I love the site but I want a original look and feel that will be unique to my company.

    Here are other examples to play with...

    Example 1

    Example 2

    If I see any designs that are really impressive I'm open to discuss taking over the entire job.

    Please work with me as I'm still learning the dynamics of hosting design contest.

    Please place all post here and do not PM me with entries

    Have fun!

    Wait for me I want to try this one, I will assume that you need the banner for the very large area with the cartoon in it.

    I looked last night for quite awhile for graphics for this design, would you be opposed to something a little different from your examples but that would convey your message and look good on your site?

    hello CH, here is my entry

    I took hot balloons as the substituents, each gas balloon refers to a new online business ..the concept is that, the businesses that come for your advertising and SEO products will have a huge popularity in no time. They get more traffic and best out there..

    Hope you like my work, I have done this cause , having buildings is a common thing.. LoL, just my openion

    [​IMG]

    It just a mockup with just gray scale... If u accept this concept , ill give the coloring in web 2.0 style and can make some modifications like adding more people etc..so that it will be ready for your site..

    Thankyou!!
