    Hi,
    I'm looking for a banner for my visa news blog http://visapermits.com

    Dimensions:
    985 x 125

    Title:
    Visa Permits

    Tag line:
    Visa permits online and working visa news

    Images ideas:
    Images of visas or of one visa would be good (NOT the credit card - visa as in travel visa) e.g. http://united-states.visahq.co.uk/information/images/info/United-States-visa.jpg

    The countries the website will be covering are the UK, Australia, the US and Canada. Any pictures of those countries or flags from those countries would be great too, maybe visas and flags could be jumbled in together.

    Example:
    http://clothingdealsonline.com/

    ^there's the title and tagline on one side, then images on the right. That kind of thing might work well.

    Deadline: Weds 2nd November. Or if there is an entry I like I'll end it sooner.

    Payment via payal.

    Good luck! :)

    Hi everyone,
    Thank you all for your swift entries. I've not picked a winner yet but I'll go through them all with some feedback:

    - best designers - thank you but the writing is a bit small and hard to read with an image behind it.

    - ighy - interesting, with the changing words, your entry is in my 'maybe' pile.

    - sgdesigs - I like it but I'm not to keen on the background colour, if you changed it so some other light colour (that doesn't distract from the text) then you'll make my 'maybe' pile.

    - phoenix89 - I'm liking the flags but I find the text a bit dull/blends in with the background colour a bit, perhaps if the text were made black it would look better.

    - Mr.leGeNd - You are in the lead so far, but if you cold remove the happy people or try and make them mixed race as this is an immigration site and they are all white.

    Winner hasn't been chosen yet so more entries are welcome. Those who make the changes I've suggested are still in the running. Thanks everyone! :)

    Thank you for the revisions Mr.LeGeNd and pheonix89. Very nice designs from both of you.

    phoenix89 is the leader now, but it's close. If you could just change the person to someone without the graduation hat, perhaps a very small group of people of different ethnic origin and a baby/child (like Mr LeGeNd - nice touch there), or perhaps just one person but with an 'approved' stamp added (whichever you think looks best without making it too crowded).

    Mr.LeGeNd, if you could make the white light coming from the behind the people a bit dimmer or completely gone so it doesn't draw attention away from the title so much and perhaps make the text partially or totally black so it stands out more.

    puttu - very nice too, you're also in the runnings for this. I'm not so keen on the fading red-blue text, if you could make it so it's black or white and black that would be good.

    Thanks again :)
