    I really am not sure what to do with this one.


    Site: http://qtions.com/

    As you can probably see from that, the banner on my site looks old and washed out. This is where you come in. I really need a banner that flows better with my site and doesn't like 1995. So I am going to pay someone $20 to come up with a great banner that looks well on my site. I don't have the dimensions right yet because the info is on my other comp. I will post them in a an hour or 2.

    There will be 2 possible payouts!

    1st place: $25
    2nd place: $10


    If I see it fit I will pay out to 2nd and 3rd place as well.

    I am just looking for good designs it doesn't need specifics.

    Here are some things to think about.

    Sites features


    -blog
    -podcast
    -forum

    I don't mind it being animated either if you want, although I would prefer that the animation be rotated once maybe every minute.

    There is currently no set end date! I will post it after I recieve the first entry!

    Let the contest begin.

    *I don't want premade ones*​



    ALL PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE THROUGH PAYPAL

    Ooh, I do like those :D

    Ok I will set an end date for this to 2 1/2 days.... or April 22, 2008 4:28PM


    As for feedback

    The middle one is kind of boring, it needs some kind of symbol or something in it.

    Not real sure how the bottom one would look on the page either :\

    I got kind of a cool idea for the top one, depending on your art skills-- a rocket ship flying around the 5

    Hey, thanks for your submission! I like it.

    The only problem I have with it is the color of the letters in the the star like symbol. I don't really know where to go with them, but they don't stick out at you enough.

    Very Nice! This is my favorite so far!

    MVMMT- You are right there with Collymellon though, I love that you went the extra yard and did an entire layout!

    Designwork- That is interesting, but I am looking for more blues, whites, and greens

    Itay- I like the design, but change up the colors.

    Nagal- Really Cool. I would like to see a symbol of some kind though, maybe a rocket ship flying around the 5.

    Master A- Love the letterings style, but sorry to say it doesnt stick out at me.
