Contest Talented Graphics Design Expert Needed for Commercial Website Banner - 48 Hour

    Hi,

    I have a client whom needs an 'old Hawaii' looking banner for her Hydroponics and Gardening shop. I will provide sample pictures of the style and look the banner will have here: http://www.wavehawaiiproductions.com/hawaiihydro/

    Width of the banner must be 960 pixels for a Studiopress theme. Height should not be large as this is a commercial business website.

    For someone whom is an expert, this should be a relatively easy design. The mountain in the background of the sample picture is the world famous Hawaiian landmark called "Diamond Head" and that must be depicted accurately. The business logo must be incorporated into the banner, as a sign, and will be provided to you.

    The banner must be submitted in these graphics formats: png, psd, jpg, ai.
    I expect about 3 sets of revisions from the final draft you provide.

    Looking forward to questions and mock-ups.

    Payment is by PayPal. Fixed price is $30 USD.
    Bonus for GOOD work: $20.

    Good Luck!

    Hi Ajmalhuzz,

    Very good first effort.

    I need a little more realism in the banner. Diamond Head can be on either side, or back of banner but it must be more accurate. Please reference my pictures or Google 'diamond head hawaii' to view proper shape and design.
    The sign/logo; can you make the Logo itself the sign, with no background, and two wooden posts holding the sign up?
    The palm trees look good but the bottom is not realistic. There are no leaves coming out of the bottom of the tree. You can see a sample of a palm tree in the pictures I provide.

    The sign/logo does not have to be in front of a destination in the banner. The road does not have to lead anywhere to be seen. It is simply part of the background.

    It would be good to have some sky with light clouds in the top of the banner, and the ocean should be smooth and not rolling like a hill-top.

    Instead of the large rolling green hills, maybe you can add a beach with a sailboat in the distance, since that is more realistic.

    Looking forward to you updates.

    PM me if you have questions.

    Thank you much!

    Let me make this really simple. Go to the webpage with the picture samples on it. Look at the last picture. One of the pictures has a landscape with a car in it. Instead of the car, put the logo as as sign; "Now Entering" with the logo is a suggestion as the street sign. Everything else stays the same. See if you can duplicate the landscape picture provided.

    Thanks!
