    CB, no worries, that's fine.

    Neil, I like, but its just a bit too orangey. Could you add some other colours, maybe yellows, reds to fit within the colourscheme of the blog. Maybe add a plane. The guy is someone ranting about their holiday, if that helps..

    Bird, I am looking for something like Neils, so not an image with the guy on and font.

    My last try:

    [​IMG]

    If i get selected i will give you also the EPS (high quality) vector design of your cartoon, you can use it to recreate your cartoon at any size without losing quality or pixelating, ideal for T-Shirts and other stuff

    It's difficult, because I'm not sure what I am after, I suppose just a new look to fit in with the blog design. I don't think the design will fit in with the border and dark colours, the current header looks brighter.

    Thanks, I like, but it still looks too orange. Have you visited the blog, its http://www.travel-rants.com if you can fit the design within the colour scheme.

    I'm not sure on the palm trees. [see comments below about the subject of the blog]

    It's too dark, and the colours don't fit the design. It needs to be better than the current one I have, otherwise I'm wasting my money.

    Thanks for trying, I like the background, but its too dark, the palm trees and font etc.

    All, the blog is for travel consumers, and travel news, I'm looking for something different, and better than my current design. I'm prepared to up the $s and deadline, but there's only 1 design thats near to what I'm looking for.

    I think that it fits, your colour pallete its based on whites, blacks, and REDS too much red i think, using yellows and oranges to make it brighter can be fine.



    Anyways here is a slightly brighter version:

    Give a look:

    I have to dash to bed, so will give comments on submissions tomorrow.

    To help think; hotels, fights, cruises, beaches, etc. rather than trees.

    Will report back tomorrow and I will extend this until 23 Jan.
