$25 Banner / $15 Button Contest

I need two images for my site http://www.teamwealthbuilder.com

The first is a full banner (486 x 60 pixel), that should have the name of the site and the same color theme. The rest is up to you. Prize is $25.

The second is a button that will go in between the "Latest Forum Announcement: June Contest - Win a Free iPod nano!" and the bookmark button from addthis.com. It should say "Upgrade Account" and it should be short enough to fit in that dark gray bar. It can either blend in with the site, match the bookmark button, or stand out on its own. Prize is $15.

Payments will be made via PayPal, and I will run this contest for 5 days (until Friday June 8).

Thanks guys.

EDIT: Please indicate on the banner that the site is a forum, in some manner.

 

pm-ed you my try... waiting for reply..

 

Feedback Appreciated

 

pm'ed you the button, hope you like it

 

^the slight background on the image is that of the bar that its going to be on, so it will be invisible.

Please give me feedback

 

I like this, but could you adjust the orange color a bit darker to get closer to what the forum uses? On the right, please don't repeat "Let's Get Rich Together". Instead try something like "Community Forum" or something along those lines.

 

I like that button. I'm not a huge fan of the banner though, it's too plain and the stripes are meh.

 

I'll enter soon

Button Entry:

 

Button in action:

 

So far jmul7's banner is my favorite, and J0ker's button is my favorite.

jmul7: That button doesn't stick out enough for me
J0ker: The banner is better, but it's still a bit plainer than I would like

 

Tried to make mine a little bit less plain

 

Here's a couple of ideas, feedback appreciated:





upgrade button, tough one:

 

If non-animated is preferred is also possible.. i need to know whether layout is as per ur need...

 

This is much better, but the white text at the bottom is a little hard to read. Maybe a black 1px border would help? Whatever works.

 

Not bad, but the text is too hard to read with that background. Makes it look unprofessional.

I like the upgrade button, could I see how it would look on that dark grey bar on my site?

 

I don't mind animation, but not with text. It's also a bit too plain.

 

Together is spelt wrong, and the text is still a bit hard to read.

 

I made the border/outer glow slightly darker and fixed the spelling error.
