Contest $25 header design dating website

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by tfbpa, Sep 7, 2009.

    Hi all,

    I am in need of a header image for my dating website with the following requirements.

    - Winner gets paid $25
    - Contest runs for 72 hours
    - It is for website http://dating.smokingdate.co.uk/
    - Dimensions need to be 840x100px
    - Color scheme is entirely up to you, I will change the current color scheme of the rest of the website according to your design later
    - The theme of the website is a dating website for singles from the UK who smoke cigarettes, hence the name of the domain
    - A nice touch is that the word smoking can also be used to describe somebody who is hot and sexy, so it is a bonus if you can incorporate this into the header, but not required. What IS required is that it should be clear that the website is for single UK cigarette smokers
    - I am not sure yet if I will use a slogan or not, depends on the design and/or if I can think of a nice slogan
    - Other then the above, please feel free to use your imagination and be creative!

    Thanks,
    Paul

    Thanks for your entry, but it looks like 4 different images are simply pasted together, making it not look like one complete image. Also cannot say that I like any of the 4 individual images and another thing is that the words are wrong.

    Thanks for your entry, it doesn't look bad, but it looks too simple.

    Thanks, simple, but nice, I like it. If anything needs to be changed it will be only the slogan and that can be done later, so no changes necessary at the moment.

    Thanks, the idea I really like, but I am not sure about the colours used. Especially the image on the right looks a bit strange. Can you try changing the colours and/or the right image and also put in the extension .co.uk in there please.

    Thanks, like it and looks really nice. Just to get another perspective, can you use the same layout with other colours?

    Thanks, concept is also nice, but domain is spelled wrong (has an "s" too much) and can you try to do something with the 2 images of the man and woman. Right now they are separate individuals and I know the site is meant for singles, but the ultimate goal of the website is to make single people a couple and I think it would look better if that shows in the header.

    Thanks for feedback. Here's revision

    [​IMG]

    Few other slogans what I have in mind
    Slogan can be changed to similar one, for example, Place where smokers meets or All smokers meeting place
