    it looks nice. A few things, the size is too big. I need the graphic to be around 250 x 228 pixels like the one I have on there now. Also, I like the shape of the first star that you had better. In the star, could you change the word, 'photo' to 'photos'. Try making the background of the star red and the highlight on 'seethisitem' yellow. That is all I can think of for now. Thanks again! Janet

    I like it! A few things. The size is too big. It needs to be around 250 X 228 pixels like the one I have now. I think the computer screen idea is great, however, the print screen looks kind of distorted in it. Can you play around with that and try to sharpen it up alittle? Lastly, I would like to also incorporate, 'SeeThisItem. #1234' somewhere in the graphic. Could you possibly have this 'coming off' the newspaper somehow? Let me know what you come up with. Thanks for the entry. Janet

    Like the concept, but I think the ad is too large. Make the text 'For Sale' a lot smaller. keep it bold and underline it, and then put it next to '1996 Honda'. Also, you can remove 'seethisitem.com' for the graphic. I don't think I need it on there. Thanks!

    thanks for entering the contest. :)

    I like the concept of the graphic and how you incorporated a camera and motorcyle classified image as well. However, I think the graphic is alittle to *jazzy* looking for my site. My site is very simple. Maybe try toning down the colors somewhat and let me see how that looks.

    Perhaps a white background? Or should I try something altogether different.

    The color change helps a bit, but I think the graphic may be too busy. Could you try something alittle different? I do like the motorcycle classified image and camera. I would be interested to see what you come up with. thanks~

    It is on the right track, but not exactly what I am looking for. It is really cool looking, though. :)

    You could try changing the wood background to a blue color, remove the words/pictures along the bottom and use the space along the right side for text. That may be interesting to see.

    It looks good, but I think you were right from the beginning. The graphic need a color background. I just didn't care for the orange. Could you try adding a few different color blue backgrounds so I can see what that looks like? Also, the star color on my monitor looks orange not red. thanks~

    How do you like this one, Janet?

    [​IMG]

    I went back to the darker background as I think it works better personally, but can mock up a light background if you'd prefer.

    I like this one more. I would like the b/g to be lighter if you could and remove the x and check mark. And, if you could make the arrow more visible and maybe curved slightly. The 'SeeThisItem.com' text should be with the classified ad image rather than with the print screen. Also, the print scrren seems to have lost some if it's detail along the edges. Can that be added back on? thanks~

    I'll try again :)

    Not sure what you mean about the print screen though, I have tried making the monitor a little bit sharper and cleaned up the rough edges a bit though.

    The color looks much better. I like it. Also, could you change the word 'boring' to 'plain'?

    However, the print screen is very unclear and I can't make out the 'seethisitem.com #1234' text on the ad. Maybe raise the text off the ad slightly and highlight it in yellow so it stands out more? I am not sure. You could try making the text on the graphic smaller and the classified image and computer image larger. That may help. Sorry to be such a pain.

    Could you throw this graphic onto my site so I can check the color match out?

    OK I am struggling to make the seethisitem clearer - my creative juices must not be flowing :)

    But this is what I have got now... let me know. I tried to match the colours to your website.
