6 Hour Quick and Super Easy $15 Banner Contest

    I need a "Domain For Sale" Banner created.

    I'll be placing this banner in the left nav bar on a variety of sites I have for sale. This banner needs to be eye catching but not too busy either.

    Not sure what kind of graphic to use but it should be something very generic as it will be used on a variety of different sites and it should grab the visitor's attention. I was thinking of maybe a clipart image of a hand with the palm showing to indicate "stop and read this." I have have no idea but the graphic should grab someone's attention.

    Needs to be 170 pixels wide by about 200 pixels (no limitations on height but no less than 200 pixels)

    No color limitations but again nothing too loud and crazy.

    Text To Include in Banner:
    This Domain is For Sale!

    Text Along Bottom or centered across the banner:
    Grab This Domain Before
    Your Competitor Does!

    Winner will be paid via PayPal instantly.

    Thanks,

    Travis

    This is sort of what I had in mind with just a couple tweaks...

    Use a different hand instead of one pointing down because I won't actually have the domain name listed below the banner.

    Have the text: This Domain is for Sale at the top - above the graphic
    My error on the rest of the text...let's just say, "Click Here for details" and run that along the bottom. Have the words, "Click Here" be the standard blue hyperlink color and underlined.

    Not sure I like the subtle colors. I want something a little "louder" but nothing out of control. Maybe a blue or red or something since the bulk of my sites for sale have gray color schemes.

    Thanks,

    Travis

    Sorry Nelo. I honestly lost track of time and thought the 6 hours was up. While I like your entry, I still like the one I picked the best.
