3 small graphics- $100 contest

I am trying to redo 3 images that promote, airfares, hotels and car rentals.
The current images can be seen at: http://www.visitusa.com/alabama/
They are directly above the green bar that says: Alabama Adventures – Beaches and Lakes. The 3 images are currently 184*80 and need to stay the same.

I am looking for something that is a little more cartoonish- more in line with the style seen at expedia. If you can fit - words like "best rates" or "big savings" in that would be great as well. I would like to see what people come up with and will give feedback along the way- I hope to end the contest by the end of the weekend.

 

This is the same as my previous contest- but with a higher total for the winner

 

My entry (all 100% original) posted on site:

 

Here is my entry as seen on site



All images are 184X80px

Thanks

 

Here you go...

 

some feedback-
The first entry- The graphics are to blocky - for me
The second entry (rosiee)- I like this - the graphics are good for the car and the plane, but perhaps something else could be used for the hotel. Also I think you could get rid of the background alltogether. So that its just the images and the words on a white background- if one could get a feeling of motion from the car and the plane that would be a plus.

The third Entry (designchampion):I like this also. The wording is a little repetative. lets try "Best Hotel Rates", "Discount Car Rentals", and "Cheap Flights". I do like how the keywords "Hotel", "Airfare", are accentuated in bold as that might make people more likely to click on them. Also I think there is a little too much emphasis on the word "ON" in all three.


Hope this helps- go ahead and ask any questions if you want clarification.

 

thanks for the feedback

here is the revised version

 

Hi DesignChampion-
Thanks for the newest design- could you try developing something without the box and the background- I think that by boxing things off people might be more likely to see it as an ad. This means that you would need to get rid of the bar as well with the words: Hotel, Car and Airline ; Thanks for taking the time to try some different formats.

 

i'll submit my entry soon with the desired changes, thanks for the feedback.
