$20 banner

    Hi guys.
    I need a 300x250 advertising banner for the www symprojects com website.

    The website is about an electronic board used to connect a real automotive rev counter to the USB port of the computer and using it with racing simulators.

    For the banner I thought I would like the picture of car instrumentation on the background and the text "Make it real" and probably the name of the website as well.

    Example of background pictures could be:

    http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/5188658/2/istockphoto_5188658-tachometer.jpg

    http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/667650/2/istockphoto_667650-dash-board.jpg

    http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/11683782/2/istockphoto_11683782-contemporary-rpm-tach-idling.jpg

    or any other available at istockphoto.com or free pictures you may have access to.

    If you use istocjphoto, the preview must be created using the sample low resolution picture available on the website. The winner will have then to replace the background with the higher resolution one I will buy.

    It is not necessary for the graphics in the banner to match the current website graphic, which is a bit rubbish.

    I'd like the banner to look professional and not too informal in style.

    Winner will get $20 paid via Paypal. I will pick the winner in a couple of days.

    There will be more work to do on the website later on.

    Thanks
    Chris.

    BS_webdeciphers, I like your banner, the one with the red needle, although thelegendary and zasul have done a great work too.

    The only note is that the needle has a different inclination compare to the gauge. I was wondering if something couild be done to make it better, maybe using a different background or a different needle so it will look aligned to the gauge.

    Thanks
