[48 Hours] Logo and Head Banner - 20$ - PAYPAL

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by gocali2009, Apr 5, 2009.

    I need a top banner with logo for a forex website. I am not totally sure about the size yet. It is for use in the WP Church theme(http://www.studiopress.com/demo/church/) so far, but if I change it and go with a static site, then I want to be able to scale it. Dont think about the colors of WP Church as they will be changed.

    The site Name and URL: Forex Trading Tutorial, forextrading-tutorial.com

    I would like it to be in colors green, white, blue..

    In a fresh, dynamic style, but still looking trustable. The banner could include some perfomance graphs/lines, paper bills or other symbols that make it clear it is a forex site, but I would like to keep it sharp and simple.

    Some inspiration:

    Hey Pranz,

    I don't like the font, I want it sharper and thicker, no hand writing. More like in the links.

    The arrow/graph is cool, you can work with that.

    For everyone:

    I am looking for white background only.

    Okay the following are my LOGO examples. If you like any of them then I can design a similar banner too. Please remember that the font and colour of these can be easily changed. The size of these logo's is 660 x 200 so when these are halfed, they will fit your WP Blog perfectly.

    @ Pranz

    Both nr 1 + 2 have potential, but I think the text is difficult to read, could you make the text bigger and less shadows? Also I would like to see it in a darker blue and brighter green, take the color on www.easy-forex.com as benchmark.

    @ Whitecloud

    Thanks for your contribution, but not what I am looking for.

    @ Aydennx

    Can I ask you to keep the text horizontal and then move the strainght part of the graph under the word tutorial? I would also like to see it with to colors, green and blue. Check www.easy-forex.com as benchmark.

    @ Retal

    I like your idea, can I see some variations in font and colors?

    Looking forward to more entries!

    Guys,

    I have been supportive so far, but I think its time I let you know what I think.

    I realise you don't want to put too much into it as you risk not being paid, but you will have to deliver more than just some text and a simple copy paste clipart. Please put some work into it and don't deliver something that I could make myself in 5 minutes! That is just wasting my time and yours! 20$ is not a lot of money, but I have seen a lot of good designs for less than that. There are many designers on here who deliver very good designs for less than that.

    Remember, If you do good even if you don't win the contest, I will keep you in mind in the future, and I have more work in the future.

    Right now, I would not pay 20$ for any of these designs.
