$50 banner competition

Okay I want a banner designing. The site it will point to is MenFront.com - there is nothing actually on the site just now apart from a basic template, we'll be launching it soon.

The site will be a mens magazine site, similar to FHM, Maxim, a SFW Playboy etc. Kinda along the same lines as justaguything.com. So keep that in mind when designing the banner.

I'm putting the banner on my sports site so nothing nsfw - ie no topless ladies etc. Women in bikinis would be fine.

The banner needs to incorporate the logo, you can use a catch phrase or whatever on it too. Lets say a random phrase, I'll decide what that will be later. Just use "daily updated mens magazine" for now.

Important: The size of this banner needs to be 160 pixels wide by 600 high. I've done competitions before and people seem to just make their own sizes up. Anything other than this size will not fit in my template and will not be chosen as the winner.

I don't care what the file size is in kb, I'm on a dedicated server so its not an issue.

You can use animated gifs, flat jpegs, flash if you want. I don't mind - as long as it looks good and encourages people to click through then its good with me.

I may take more than one winner depending on the entries.

Lets set a closing date of next Saturday.

Any questions, let me know. Please post entries here, not by pm. Any questions post here also.

Thanks

It's Saturday today. Can you please announce the winner?

 

Hi. Thanks for the contest. If I happen to be one of the winners, could you possibly pay by Western Union (minus the fees of course)?

 

Hey guys, sorry for the slow reply. I never realised when I posted this but Friday was the last day we can file our tax returns in the UK for 07/08 tax year - we've been trying to sort that crap. We will announce a winner Monday, we've been too busy trying to donate our hard earned money to single mums and drug addicts
